A sheet will open with your main keyword at the top and extra settings below.

Advanced keyword settings

You can define the following settings:

• Platforms

• Keyword context

• Include ANY OF

• Include ALL OF

• Negative terms (exclude)

• Negative authors (exclude)

• Wildcard negative terms

• Exact match

• Case sensitive

Platforms

You can decide if, for a specific keyword, you want to exclude certain platforms. This can help if out of your 10 keywords, you only want 2 of them to be monitored in GitHub.

Keyword context

This is OPTIONAL extra context for your keyword that helps our AI assess the posts coming in. We already use your company information in settings as context, but sometimes it can be useful to give some keyword specific context.

Help the AI understand what's relevant for this keyword.

This is useful if:

• Your keyword is a common word or brand name (e.g. "anything")

• Or an industry term that's broad (e.g. "social listening")

Examples:

• "Our brand Anything is an AI tool, ignore posts using 'anything' as a common word."

• "Only include posts about social listening in a B2B SaaS context, exclude B2C brands like Nike."

Keep it under 200 characters. The AI uses this only to filter noise, not to change your keyword.

Include ANY OF

Set extra terms that must appear with your primary keyword. You can choose multiple terms, and we will then search for posts that include your primary keyword and ANY of these extra terms.

For example, if your primary keyword is GitHub and you have added the terms AI and Copilot in the OR condition field, we will only add mentions to your feed that include the word GitHub and AI and/or Copilot.

Include ALL OF

Set extra terms that must appear with your primary keyword. You can choose multiple terms, and we will then search for posts that include your primary keyword and ALL of these extra terms.

For example, if your primary keyword is GitHub and you have added the terms AI and Copilot in the AND condition field, we will only add mentions to your feed that include the word GitHub and AI and Copilot.

Negative terms

You can add negative keywords (one or multiple separated by a comma). If you do this, we will exclude any posts mentioning these chosen terms. For example, if your primary keyword is GitHub and you've set Runner as a negative keyword, we will exclude mentions on your feed that include the word Runner in combination with GitHub.

Negative authors

You can add negative authors (one or multiple separated by a comma). If you do this, we will exclude any posts mentioning this exact author name in the author field. For example, you may want to add your own social handles here so we exclude any posts that you make from your own company or personal employee accounts.

Wildcard negative terms

We will exclude patterns of terms. This is useful if you get a lot of spammy posts with the same type of URL for example.

Add terms ending with * to exclude any word starting with that pattern. For example, "beta.*" will match "beta.0.1", "beta.0.2.com", "beta.test", etc.

Exact match

Toggle on or off to decide whether you want a strict match or not. f this is turned off, we search for broad match, e.g., your term can show up within another term like a URL. If this is turned on we search for only this word alone standing.

Case-sensitivity

Toggle on or off to decide whether you want a strict upper- or lower-case match. For example, if your primary keyword is RAG (upper case) you can toggle case-sensitive on to only get posts in your feed with the upper-case term RAG, not rag.
