Before you start
Lattice's Natural language processing (NLP) engine leverages leading artificial intelligence and machine technology to provide the most accurate and rapid sentiment tagging possible. The sentiment analysis provides a way for admins to quickly analyze the results of comment-based responses in review packets.
Note: Sentiment scores are only visible to admin users. They are not shared with managers or reviewees.

Step 1: Navigate to the Admin > Reviews > Auditing page
Step 2: Select the review cycle that you want to view sentiment for

How sentiment is displayed
