Abstract
A method, computer program product, and a system include a processor(s) that monitors an event, as a proxy for an invitee, to assign or periodically update a value (the value shifts temporally during the event). The processor(s) monitors the event by analyzing sentiment and emotion in verbal content, generate a speech baseline for each attendee, i.e., tone neutral vocal communication patterns, determine an aggregate tone for the event, and generating and progressive update, during the monitoring, the value (the value represents deviations in tone from the aggregate tone in portions of the verbal content proximate to an occurrence of one or more keywords relevant to the invitee, based on the aggregate tone and the speech baseline for each of the one or more attendees). The processor(s) determine that the value has exceeded a threshold and trigger an action to facilitate connection of the invitee to the event.
