Tia, Lanuzo et al., Sentiment Simulation using Generative AI Agents, arXiv preprint 2505.22125, May 2025. Not peer reviewed.
The 69.8M profiles model Filipino consumers using behavioral and psychographic evidence across 17 regions. Survey-response alignment was 92% (QWA); sentiment alignment was 81–86% across tested scenarios.
Commercial
Blind backtest with AdSpark: approximately 19,900 ad-pair comparisons and 800M impressions. Predikta ranked the better-performing ad in 59–61% of pairs overall, against about 50% by chance, and in 64–70% of pairs on the conversion subset.
Results are retrospective and specific to the tested data. See the full case study.
The human question
Data shows what happened. Behavioral science helps explain why.
Data shows what people did.
Behavioral science explains why responses differ.
AI models how populations may respond.
Decision contexts
The Behavioral Model provides use cases across key industries.
Test messages and ideas with simulated Filipino audiences.
Explore PrediktaExplore consumer response, product decisions, adoption and loyalty.
Understand patient behavior to improve health communications, services and interventions.
Explore public response to policies and programs.
Understand population dynamics, information environments and human response.
Each use case needs its own data, calibration, validation and safeguards.
Know your audience.
Find the message that connects.
Set filters like region and age, and Predikta builds the audience. See the persona mix inside it, so you can shape a message around how these people choose.
Try your campaign“I prefer familiar brands that I can trust to deliver good value.”
Familiarity, reliability, and value guide their choices.

Try your campaignAfter launch, Listen groups live comments into themes and pulls out representative comments, so you can see what people are saying and what to change next.
Try your campaign“Not too sweet, just right. Sana permanent na ’to!”
“A bit pricey for the size, but I’d buy it on promo.”
“Available na ba sa Cebu? Wala pa sa branch namin.”
People like the taste. Price is the main hesitation, and many ask where to buy it. Next post: list the stores and the promo.

AdSpark blind backtest
Top 20% of ads by Predikta score compared with the bottom 80%. Each metric is indexed to its bottom-80% baseline (1×). Retrospective results; future performance may vary.
Partner perspectives
“With Predikta’s ability to understand the audience, we can prescribe what our clients and brand partners should do even before they implement…”
“Solutions like Predikta can then help businesses move from reactive strategies to proactive, data-led success.”
“At Brave Connective, our mission is to bridge the gap between technology and human connection, and Predikta’s predictive capabilities align perfectly with that vision.”
How we map
Behavioral science explains why responses differ. AI lets us explore those differences at population scale.
Start with human evidence.
Use surveys and observed behavior to describe personality, values, beliefs and the context of a decision.
Behavioral surveys · Decision journeys · Quantitative pulses
Model different possible responses.
Represent people as agents with different traits and motivations. Explore how their choices form population patterns.
Psychographic profiles · Agent-based models
Learn from real outcomes.
Compare simulated and observed responses to identify gaps and refine the model’s assumptions.
Observed responses · Model refinement
National-scale surveys and observed behavior.
Personality, values, beliefs and context.
Explore how different people may respond.
Scientific foundations
Who people are is only part of the story. Our models also consider what they value and the situations they face.
Personality, values, beliefs and lifestyle help explain differences in response.
Historical context and social factors help explain why the same person may choose differently.
Agent-based models explore how individual choices and interactions become population patterns.
Simulations explore possible responses. They complement field research and depend on the evidence and assumptions behind them.
