Socialcast, the collaboration software platform, is releasing Social Business Intelligence, a suite of analytics for companies using its technology for real time collaboration within an organization. Social Business Intelligence (SBI) provides real-time feedback and actionable insights into the employees, topics and conversations that users are finding important and that spur active participation.

Social Business Intelligence is a dashboard that shows an interactive visualization of all community discussions, surfacing the most active messages based on user interaction, popular posting times and dates. The goal of SBI is to help companies understand the value of real-time conversations and the invisible social relationships that drive productivity, according to Socialcast Founder and CEO, Timothy Young.

Alongside the release of SBI, Socialcast is also introducing a brand new layout of their site. Socialcast has completely redesigned the company pages, as well added some new features. The most notable new features are: Smart custom streams, updated navigation, flagged messages, history views, and trending topics.

In August, Socialcast officially introduced their developer API, so that developers can use Socialcast for cross-company collaboration. Socialcast has raised a total of $1.4 million from True Ventures and is based in the South Park area in San Francisco, Calif.
