Survey text analysis made easy: Turn responses into actionable insights
Our text analysis tools help you quickly cut through the clutter and go from qualitative data to insights—without the need for tedious manual work.
See the bigger picture in qualitative feedback
Stop drowning in feedback left in open-ended text and comment boxes. Thematic analysis uses AI to automatically categorize your qualitative responses into meaningful themes, providing a clear understanding of what people are saying without hours of manual work.
- Identify and categorize key themes within your open-ended responses in seconds
- Save the time you’d spend manually organizing data into meaningful categories
- See how individual text responses align with key themes, and easily export this data for further analysis
Understand sentiment at scale
Assess how respondents feel, not just what they say. Sentiment analysis classifies open-text responses as positive, negative, or neutral—helping you read the mood across thousands of comments with ease.
- Save time as you see sentiments at a glance
- Filter by sentiment to identify specific areas that need attention and act quickly
- Filter a question by sentiment for even deeper insights
Visualize text responses easily
Create word clouds for a quick visual interpretation of open-ended responses, highlighting the most frequently used words.
With customizable word clouds, you can:
- Choose colors or fonts to highlight specific words
- Adjust the threshold for when words should appear
- Hide words that aren’t relevant
- Combine related words into a single category
Tag for even more customization
Looking for something very specific in your response data? Tag your responses to uncover even more specific information in your open-ended response data.
- Assign multiple, custom tags per response
- Filter by tag to get focused insights
- With an enterprise plan, tags can be applied automatically as responses come in
Note: Some text analysis features are only available on certain plans.
