What are AI Answers? AI Answers is an AI-powered research tool specialized in helping you analyze the responses in your research studies to formulate evidence-backed answers. Think of AI Answers as a super-efficient research assistant who will take any research question you pose, and then reviews all the responses you've gathered across your entire study to figure out if the research question can be answered based on the data you’ve gathered. It considers all the responses collectively, finding themes, grouping insights, and connecting relevant dots to formulate clear, direct answers to the big-picture research questions you care ask it.
It doesn't just throw out generic summaries, either. Each AI Answer is tailored specifically to the context of your study, your research questions, and your data. In short, it's like having an experienced analyst instantly comb through all your research data, neatly package the insights, and hand them directly to you on a silver platter—every single time you run a study.
Here’s how AI Answers works Let’s break down exactly what AI Answers does behind the scenes, so you can understand how we make sure every insight is evidence-backed, trustworthy, and clear:
It reviews all your data across your study AI Answers scans every participant response across every part of your Wondering study—whether that's recordings of prototype or live website tasks, large-scale survey responses or open-ended feedback. Using state-of-the-art large language models, it scans through responses in over 50+ languages, making sure no response is missed.
It identifies and organizes important pieces of evidence As AI Answers reads through your data, it identifies patterns in the responses that relate to the research question. This could be clear evidence that disproves the hypothesis behind your research question, a tangential or noteworthy concept or anything else significant participants have mentioned.
It generates direct, clear answers to your research questions Next, for every research question you've defined, AI Answers creates a concise, direct answer that captures the overall takeaway from participants’ collective responses. It carefully synthesizes nuanced answers that directly answer your question clearly.
It provides supporting evidence for each AI Answer Under each answer, AI Answers includes an easy-to-scan bullet list, showcasing the evidence that supports the answer given. Each bullet point highlights clear evidence, that links back directly to the raw evidence from your participant responses.This way, you always know exactly how strongly each answer is supported—and you have direct access to the raw data behind it.
Want to drill deeper into the context and evidence behind an answer? AI Answers makes it super easy. Every quote in the bullet-pointed evidence links directly back to the exact transcript section or participant response it originated from.
What happens when there isn’t enough data to answer a research question? We know you need to be able to trust the answers that AI Answers generate to be able to confidently use them in your research. We’ve designed AI Answers with this in mind, making sure that it doesn’t output answers that it isn’t confident in. If your study hasn’t gathered enough information to confidently answer a question, AI Answers won’t guess. Instead, it will clearly state that there isn’t enough data to conclusively answer your research questions.
