Proof & Methodology

The EchoDepth Measurement Framework

FACS standard. 44 Action Units. VAD model. 14 cultural cohorts across 6 countries.

Frame-by-Frame Emotion Timeline

EchoDepth analyses every frame of a video recording — generating an emotion timeline that maps what the subject felt, when they felt it, and at what intensity. Outputs include a full emotion score list and a radar chart of emotional distribution.

  • Emotion scores per frame (25+ emotions)
  • Radar chart of emotional distribution
  • Peak emotion moment identification
  • Scrubable timeline — click to any second

EchoDepth emotion transcript — words colour-coded by emotional state

Emotion Mapped to Every Word

EchoDepth's transcript layer colour-codes every word by the emotional state detected at that moment. This reveals which specific content triggered which emotional response — making it possible to re-engineer communications at the word level.

The transcript layer is available on video analysis sessions and provides the evidential foundation for coaching, editing and communications optimisation.

Built on Validated Science

FACS Standard

The Facial Action Coding System is the gold standard for facial emotional measurement. EchoDepth implements 44 Action Units — significantly more granular than broad expression classification.

VAD Model

Valence-Arousal-Dominance provides three-dimensional emotional state mapping. EchoDepth outputs go beyond positive/negative to provide the full emotional state picture.

Cultural Calibration

Emotional expression is culturally modulated. EchoDepth is calibrated across 14 cohorts in 6 countries — preventing the cultural bias that invalidates many emotional AI outputs.
