Sentiment Drift Detection in Manager Feedback
Feedback can become disproportionately negative after a specific incident—you disagreed with the manager, reported something, or exercised a workplace right—suggesting the feedback is retaliatory rather than performance-based. Comparing feedback before and after the incident reveals whether the shift is real or your interpretation.
HypatiaSentiment drift detection is the process of using AI to track how the emotional tone of written or verbal feedback from a manager shifts over time, revealing patterns that may signal bias, retaliation, or a hostile work environment building slowly.
When feedback turns negative gradually, it can be difficult to notice in the moment, but AI tools can surface measurable changes across emails, performance notes, and meeting transcripts so you have documented evidence rather than a vague feeling that something has changed.
