Any advice on how to make the most out of Keigo?

5 ways to go Keigo — for free!

1. Take the visual assessment!

Sprain your brain by putting pictures in order that describe you best.

2. Keigo your favorite celebrity!

Imagine you are about to meet that special someone on a date or for biz.

3. Ask for 360-degree cross-evaluations!

How do others see you? There is only one way to find out. Fire out many requests!

4. Analyze your last meaningful meeting!

Go over your last meeting with a friend or associate: Use AI for Twitter active, use sliders for others.

5. Pick your favorite tips!

Start gathering worthwhile psychological insights. Ideas you want to remember and take up.

How many cross-evaluation requests should I send?

The more the merrier!

Ask for cross-evaluations from different kinds of people.

For instance: workmates, friends and family…

As long as they know you well, it is all good.

A fresh approach to apply visual keys in the social style inventory. Is there a specific reason for using that kind of solution?

Visual assessment is new and unique. Although there are visual personality assessment methods and tests out there, all of those are limited to self-evaluation, whereas Keigo visual test measures social styles, combining both self-rate and cross-evaluations. “Person and box” theme translates directly into both utilization purposes. In other words, it is a combination of both, how you see yourself and, how others see you.

Frankly: You can crowdsource other peoples´ perception of you.

One profile is not better or worse than another one — no damage done, when giving / receiving evaluations. Moreover, why not run your own digital footprint on the top of everything… Once you have established your own profile it is, perhaps, time to start analyzing your conversation partners.

It takes two to Tango!

Tell me more about work related use cases?

Sure, there are plenty of work-related use cases:

· Prepping for an important meeting is an obvious one. Go with Twitter analysis or use sliders.

· Understanding of one´s strength and development areas is always important — especially when applying for a job. Feel free to send your profile, including cross-evaluations. “I do my own stunts.”

· Team building is another one. These days there are so many virtual teams. Trello, Slack, Zoom and so on, this is how we work. So, go Keigo and hit the ground running.

· Content creation. There are plenty of people, who rely on subscribers, likes and shares… Keigo can help in many ways as it provides personal insights and food for thought.

· Then there is just pure self-improvement. That is the biggest idea of them all. That one small feather can break a camel´s back — and one simple idea, that really sinks in, can change the trajectory of one´s life.

How does this work in the context of dating?

You can start simulating your counterparts with sliders — hot dates, new casual acquaintances or past flings — and get personal tips for hitting it off properly. It is situational flexibility and interpersonal influence just-on-demand.

Know that special someone´s Twitter name?

It gets better.

Punch in that handle, let artificial intelligence read through all tweets and re-tweets in 2 seconds and you will get a personality profile of that special someone, based on his/her Twitter history. It´s all preps in one place — in your pocket.

Even with your personal “Cyrano de Bergerac” you still have to do your own stunts when meeting face-to-face.

Also remember: “Can´t buy me love”, they say, and it is probably true…

How did you land on using IBM Watson? How would it compare to GoogleDeepmind?

Here is a quick answer to a profound question.

We knew that IBM Watson was the most established AI engine out there, but we will be looking to road test it against Google Deepmind.

Essentially, we are looking for two things in a potential AI partner, speed and accuracy.

So far Watson delivers on both fronts!

I am a LinkedIn heavy user and would love to get that data source available as soon as possible.

This is how you can go Keigo on your Linkedin contacts.

See if the up and coming conversation partner has written any blogs or articles.

Then copy all of the texts into “AI” => “AI analysis by free text” — and you are good to go.

I have used it for work before meeting a new person. Am I doing it right?

Yes, Keigo is all about understanding others — but it all starts with understanding of oneself first.

There are many layers and dimensions involved in these matters, but this old wisdom catches various aspects of it rather nicely.

Understanding others is knowledge,

Understanding oneself is enlightenment;

Conquering others is power,

Conquering oneself is strength.

I have not gotten Keigo yet. I understand what this product is supposed to do but I don’t really understand how it does it.

We are about to start working on an animated video, which walks through the service as a first-person experience. We have had our work cut out for us trying get the app right, so it is a matter of priorities and resources at this point.

What sources can it draw from (only Twitter is mentioned)?

Twitter it is. Names work instantly and, for example, blogs can be used for free text section (LinkedIn) FB is out of bounds / closed. We give 5 credits for free.

How does it work if the person you want to analyze does not use social media/you haven’t exchanged any text with them?

You can use sliders — for eternally free!

That is, you can analyze behavior / behavioral cues. In case you have never met and the person in question is not active in (Twitter, blogs…), just go out and be yourself, with an open mind.

Moreover, there are plenty of pointers — based on your own social gravitations — to take cue from.

Once I’ve analyzed a profile, I can read the results. But is there a way to access these results again later on? Or does the data just disappear and I’ve lost a credit?

If you hit the red AI button at the bottom navigation, there are 4 options, the second one of them being “History of Twitter Analyses”.

I guess this is the one you are looking for? The analysis are accessible for 60 days (due to GDPR regulations in Europe).

They are accessible also offline.

For the time being, yes unfortunately it means that slider analyses are not saved.

Did you notice that you won’t be consuming any credits if you use the slider analysis?

However that feature, and saving free text analyses as well are within close proximity in our roadmap.

What does an analysis to look like/in what format is it served?

We use social styles as a framework, or theory of social interaction — a loved child has many names… It goes back approximately half a century. It is an oversimplification, naturally, but we find it very useful due to Universal nature of it.

One profile is not better or worse than another one; There are pros and cons embedded in all variations.

Can you provide us with witch part of an analysis of an imaginary person or something to get an idea of what we’re getting?

Indeed, a first-person video would address this nicely. (Screen shots could help perhaps too.) We are about to start making a walk-through video, which follows narrative format, which we have found to be rather common is US (at least few years ago). Namely, introducing an imaginary character and have her / him do something old way, which is problematic, only to pick up the product and adopting a new way.

You can always just get Keigo and just randomly take the visual assessment and bounce around. We hope that you would give it a shot.

We would love to hear your thoughts. Please download and pop us an email (info@keigo.app) to share your app experience with us.
