Helios Comprehend Voice Tone Analysis

Data Feed by Helios Life Enterprises, Inc.

Added to Marketplace: April 27, 2020

Overview

Deeper speaker intelligence is now possible through Helios' Comprehend voice tone offering. Executives who are presenting a message have different levels of confidence, belief and other core understandings that can be accessed through voice tone.

To understand how and why the tone of the voice is particularly relevant and valuable in the context of earnings calls, it is helpful to understand how the emotions that underlie voice tone are being produced. While there are different theories of the emotion process, a popular and particularly applicable one is the appraisal theory (Roseman, 1984). According to that theory, voice tone is a response to events given a person’s understanding of specific circumstances (Scherer et al., 2001).

Helios brings this quantified voice tone into a data feed for traders. The opportunity to better understand executive management is now possible.
