📊 Emoji Sentiment Analyzer

Emoji sentiment analysis is the process of determining the emotional tone behind emoji usage in text. Every emoji carries an emotional weight — a heart conveys warmth and love, while an angry face signals frustration or displeasure. By looking at which emoji someone uses and how they combine, you can get a pretty accurate read on the overall emotional tone of a message.

Our sentiment scores are based on research from the Emoji Sentiment Ranking by Novak, Smailović, Sluban, and Mozetič (2015), one of the most cited studies on emoji emotion. The researchers analyzed over 1.6 million tweets across 13 languages to determine how people perceive the sentiment of individual emoji. We adapted and extended their findings to cover over 200 commonly used emoji, each scored on a scale from -1.0 (very negative) to +1.0 (very positive).

In digital communication, emoji do a lot of the heavy lifting that tone of voice and facial expressions handle in person. A message like "sure" can mean anything from enthusiastic agreement to passive aggression — but "sure 😊" versus "sure 🙄" tells a completely different story. Understanding emoji sentiment helps you communicate more clearly and read others more accurately.

Brands and content creators use emoji sentiment analysis to gauge audience reactions on social media. Customer support teams use it to prioritize upset customers. Researchers study it to understand how digital communication evolves across cultures. And for everyday users, it is simply a fun way to see what emotional footprint your messages leave behind.
