Abstract

This paper explores the integration of the HAPPI v1.0 happiness algorithm into social media platforms and digital ecosystems to monitor and enhance user well-being. Building upon empirical findings from positive psychology, behavioural science, and the World Happiness Report, the study proposes a method for tracking and influencing happiness in real-time through digital behavior. By combining passive digital usage data with active user feedback and AI-driven sentiment analysis, we propose a hybrid system to measure happiness indicators and suggest personalized well-being interventions.
