Spam detection : What gets filtered and what doesn't

Lucidya automatically detects and filters spam from X data before it reaches analysis, ensuring that insights reflect genuine customer conversations rather than low-quality or irrelevant content. Coverage may expand to additional data sources in future updates.

What gets filtered

Lucidya filters several categories of content that are not relevant to customer analysis:

  • Inappropriate ads
    Unsolicited promotional content that appears within monitored conversations

  • Phishing and harmful content
    Posts containing malicious links, deceptive messaging, or content designed to mislead or harm

  • Explicit content
    Sexually inappropriate or publicly explicit material unrelated to customer discussions

  • Bot and automated posts
    Content generated by automated accounts rather than real users

All identified content is tagged as spam and removed from analysis results.

What may still appear in results

Not all low-quality or unwanted content is automatically removed.

  • Content that does not clearly fall into a defined spam category may still appear

  • Some borderline or ambiguous cases are intentionally left in results

  • Filtering behavior may vary depending on the data source

Additional filtering options

For more control, teams can apply additional filters to refine their data beyond automatic spam detection:

  • User-based filters

  • Hashtags

  • Keywords

Available filtering options may vary depending on the source being analyzed. Spam filtering also ensures that alerts are not triggered by spam activity, reducing false notifications and allowing teams to focus on meaningful customer insights.
