Partnership will streamline open-ended feedback using artificial intelligence to drive better-informed decisions

NEW YORK, LONDON and OSLO, Norway, Nov. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Forsta, the leading Customer Experience and Research Technology company created earlier this year by the merger of Confirmit, FocusVision and Dapresy, is announcing its partnership with Lumoa, an AI-powered insight platform. The Lumoa platform has been integrated into Forsta’s world-class experience platform to provide advanced AI-driven analytics to customers seeking to quickly identify the trends and insights that matter the most.

Tailored for any device, respondents can engage from anywhere through proprietary machine-learning technology that automatically detects question types and answer options, translating them into an online survey that can be reviewed and customized.

The combination of Forsta and Lumoa takes feedback one step further by applying AI to unstructured data and removing the need for manual analysis. Both solutions also support more than 60 international languages.

“Forsta is very excited about what has already been proven and what’s ahead for our partnership with Lumoa,” said Giles Whiting, Chief Operating Officer and Managing Director, VoC and VoE, at Forsta. “Leveraging both of our best-in-class offerings, our clients now have the ability to apply proprietary AI tools to unstructured feedback at scale, and generate more meaningful insights from their VoC, VoE, and market research programs.”

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.
