Analysing verbatims with generative AI By Richard Collins Askiafield 2nd October 2023 ShareFacebookLinkedInTwitter Guest Blog: Tim Brandwood, codeit As researchers, we understand the value of asking open-ended questions in our surveys. They help us get to the “why” that lies behind the closed questions you ask. It’s no use finding out that your customers are dissatisfied if you don’t also ask them why. The challenge with collecting this kind of free-text data is that it usually needs to be measured. For example, what are the top five most frequent reasons your customers are dissatisfied? How does that trend over time? And…

Here we summarise much of the knowledge that we have picked up from a couple of decades of providing survey software and working with insight professionals and their open-ended questions. When to use them; how to optimise them; and how to analyse the unstructured data that is collected. For many of our seasoned users this article will likely be seen as “teaching…

Automation & Tracking Surveys By Seyf Altindal Askiaanalysis, Knowledge base 19th May 2021 ShareFacebookLinkedInTwitter “You’re either the one who creates the automation or you’re getting automated” – Tom Preston-Werner “The central question of 2025 will be: What are people for in a world that does not need their labor, and where only a minority are needed to guide the ‘bot-based economy?” – Stowe Boyd With the words of GitHub co-founder and lead researcher at Gigaom echoing in my ears, I swiftly set about using Askia Analyse’s powerful new scripting functionality to add an exciting twist to the most common deliverable in market…

Analyse 5.5.2 – Jewels in the Crown (pt 2) By Seyf Altindal Askiaanalysis 2nd December 2019 ShareFacebookLinkedInTwitter This is part 2 of a series of articles on automating tasks in Analyse. According to the new Askia tagline, you can now automate insights. The claim is bold and possibly premature. But for years now, we have been thinking of ways we could decrease the lapse between questionnaire design and the analysis. Of course producing insights is hard on a new topic but it shouldn’t be that difficult on a more targeted environment. If your survey is generic enough (say an ad test or package testing), you…
Askia – Wind of Change By Patrick George Lassale Business 4th February 2019 ShareFacebookLinkedInTwitter Moving from “Software for surveys” to “Automating insight” A question that we often get asked at Askia is when did it all start? A simple enough question you would have thought – but the answer depends on whom you are talking to. I’d probably say 1996, when we changed our name to Askia. However Jérôme would argue back to 1994 when he first created a company called “Peter Holmes”. Yes, Peter Holmes … but that is a different story. Well whoever is right, it was definitely in the…
