New Feedback Analysis Report from Viable Uses High-Powered AI and Natural Language Processing To Analyze Tens of Thousands of Customer Comments, Instantly Aggregating Them for Brands

Companies Can Now Quickly Identify What Their Users Are Saying; Viable’s First Natural Language Analysis of Shopping Apps Says Chewy is the Most Beloved and Target is “A Mom’s Best Friend”

San Francisco, CA, Dec. 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Viable, the qualitative AI company, has launched a new Feedback Analysis Report for business teams that uses state-of-the-art AI, including GPT-3, to aggregate, analyze, and summarize customer feedback with a depth of understanding previously unseen. This fully automated report is written in natural language and reads like a human wrote it, making insights from large volumes of customer feedback easily accessible and actionable to business users.

Using the Feedback Analysis Report to do its first cross-brand analysis, Viable compared shopping app reviews* and found that pet site Chewy outperformed nine other top retailers in terms of compliments vs. complaints. Chewy had the most compliments as a percent of all their reviews, at 92.5%. Out of 8,357 Chewy reviews analyzed, Viable summarized 1,857 compliments about the brand overall in natural language as follows: “Customers are raving about the quality of Chewy’s customer service. They love how easy it is to use the app and website, and how helpful they find the customer service team.”

In the same analysis, Viable’s qualitative AI identified less obvious insights that wouldn’t easily be found if done manually. For example, across 7,000 Target app reviews analyzed, the AI found a number of reviews specifically from moms with young children who praised the Target app, summarizing the reviews as such: “The Target app is a mom’s best friend. It makes shopping easy and convenient, especially with small children, and is especially helpful for single moms.”

Says Viable co-founder and CEO Dan Erickson, “Businesses can use that kind of insight to validate or create unique promotions, mobile app features, store layout designs, and more. Retailers, for instance, can use customer feedback strategically to bridge gaps across customer touchpoints. Bottom line, companies can find unique insights often buried in large qualitative datasets with Viable.”

The Feedback Analysis Report is now available to all Viable customers in all tiers for contextualized insights of their own customer feedback.

*Viable analyzed 52,690 Apple App Store and Google Play Store user reviews for Amazon, Best Buy, Chewy, Costco, Etsy, Overstock, Sam’s Club, Target, Walmart, and Wayfair between August 2020 and November 2021 to find top user complaints, compliments, and requests.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
