Is this sort of analysis technically allowed by Twitter's ToS and Privacy Policy? Don't get me wrong, what you post on social media is public and that's that, but I know there are sometimes interesting rules around this sort of analysis.

"this sort of analysis" is a bit wide ranging, so can't comment, because some 'such' analysis might not sit pretty with twitter. But "this" is in line with policies, we in fact work with twitter and twitter is aware of this application.

This in fact has the potential to make twitter data useful for a new kind of user (product manager at a software product), so has the potential of making twitter useful for a sort of new segment of users.
