Introducing themeit, our automated theme discovery tool

There have been a number of landmark events in the lifetime of codeit.

This week is one of those moments - as we announce the release of themeit:  a tool that harnesses the latest generative A.I. technology (think Chat GPT) to supercharge your verbatim coding process.

How does it work?

Once you’ve loaded some data into codeit, you can access the new themeit tool by clicking “analyze themes”.

themeit will then auto analyze your data, extract a set of suggested themes and code as many of your verbatims as possible.  Once this is complete, you can view the results in a simple and easy to use visualisation. You can view the results by each theme, and the verbatims that fit into each theme. It will also highlight the relevant section of text within the verbatim relating to the theme. 

So, if you’re starting coding on a brand new project, themeit can save you hours of time by auto generating your codeframe and coding a large chunk of the verbatims for you. 

Extract | Refine | Apply

themeit is tightly integrated into all the existing elements of codeit, and works in a 3-step process: Extract - Refine - Apply:

Extract: AI-powered theme and sentiment extractor autocodes your data and presents it in a visually engaging display.

Refine: Easily refine your results - allowing for a better understanding of those nuances in your data that require human judgement calls. 

Apply: codeit’s unique machine-learning system continually improves its AI model to incorporate your refinements. Saving you time, money, and boosting quality.

Speed up the coding process

themeit is designed to speed up the coding process, but the process still remains human-led. You stay in full control, so if you want to refine themes or alter the codes applied, you can click the “Edit” mode tab, to switch into the low-level detailed data view, and make any changes to the data you want.  Any changes you make are then immediately reflected in the themeit view when you switch back.

Key Features

Let’s summarize themeit shall we.

• Auto Extract themes and sentiment

• Simple intuitive user interface

• Sentiment summary statistics to help describe the type and strength of sentiment in your data

• Powerful “edit mode” putting you in control to make refinements, and adjustments at any level of detail required

Future Developments

As always, we’re interested in feedback. Much like the main codeit tool that has evolved in partnership with user feedback and involvement, we would like users to help us evolve themeit too with feedback, comments and suggestions.

themeit is available now and added to codeit explorer at no extra cost. If you have questions about the benefits of codeit and our new automated discovery tool, get in touch. 

We hope you enjoy using themeit as much as we enjoyed building it.
