Abstract

This study presents a context-aware sentiment analysis system developed to address the challenges of analyzing user-generated comments on Instagram and TikTok. These platforms are major digital engagement tools in Indonesia, yet their high volume of informal, emoji-rich, and multilingual content makes manual sentiment interpretation impractical. To address this, we developed a web-based application that utilizes Gemini 2.0 Flash, a state-of-the-art natural language model, integrated with FastAPI and ReactJS, to classify sentiments in comments with contextual awareness. The system also incorporates emoji interpretation and supports Bahasa Indonesia and English. Performance evaluation on 2,000 real-world comments showed 87.2% accuracy, surpassing traditional tools such as VADER. This tool enables brands and influencers to make data-driven decisions by exporting sentiment trends in real time. Challenges include slang interpretation, API rate limitations, and short-comment ambiguity. Future enhancements include video transcription and regional dialect support.
