During Suicide Prevention Month (Setembro Amarelo), Unimed Ferj, a Brazilian healthcare provider and creative agency Binder launched SOS Songs, a campaign that transforms how we perceive our emotions: using music as an emotional mirror and technology as a channel for active listening.
The SOS Songs project leverages artificial intelligence and musical data analysis to identify Spotify users who may be experiencing emotional distress, based on a recurring pattern: the frequent consumption of sad and low-energy songs.
These users are reached directly on the streaming platform through an audio spot that invites them to reflect. By clicking on the campaign banner, they are taken to a dedicated website where, with a simple Spotify login, their playlist is analyzed by an intelligent system.
