BotSight by Norton Labs app for iPhone and iPad

As part of NortonLifeLock Inc., Norton Labs is leading the company’s future technology and guiding the consumer cybersecurity industry around the globe while delivering innovative prototypes with test-friendly features so adventurous users can learn and offer feedback.

BotSight by Norton Labs allows you to browse Twitter while annotating each handle with a bot-probability score. This works across most of Twitters views including Timeline, Search, Profile, Follower, and clicking on an individual Tweet.

The scores are generated by our state-of-the-art classifier in real-time. They are then placed directly onto the page, so you can tell if youre interacting with a real person or a bot.

In addition to annotating the Tweeter, we also scan the contents of the Tweet. For instance, BotSight also annotates mentioned handles in the Tweets body and the handles in replies. Retweets, quoted tweets, followers, and those you follow are also annotated.

Its easiest to use the BotSight app to browse your Twitter feed with bot-score annotations. But you can also ask BotSight to annotate tweets directly in your devices native browser or from the Twitter app by using the share menu within those apps and selecting the BotSight extension.

While we do our best to make sure BotSight is accurate, it is still in active development. People may be misclassified as bots or vice-versa.

Innovations from Norton Labs are for research, evaluation, and consumer feedback purposes. NortonLifeLock does not give any warranties as to the suitability or usability of these prototypes and recommends safeguarding data and reviewing all terms and conditions before use.
