Rockfish Introduces TidyTweet.com

Posted by Kenny Tomlin on Tuesday, July 07, 2009 in Project Launch

Like many companies, at Rockfish we have utilized the real-time relevancy of Twitter to syndicate social conversations around brands and events.  Spammers have also increasingly utilized Twitter to interrupt conversations with their own messaging.  We created TidyTweet to provide a real-time filtering and monitoring tool that allows companies to syndicate Twitter content on their website or blog free from inappropriate language, users, and content.

Some of the features include:

  • Automatic or manual approval of Tweets
  • Custom bad word filtering
  • Whitelist and blacklist of Twitter users
  • Auto-rejection of tweets from newly created accounts
  • Auto-rejection of tweets with multiple trending topics appended to the tweet

We just launched the service in beta and are accepting a limited number of beta users to help us finalize TidyTweet.

You can learn more about the service and sign-up for an account here.
