Proactive AI

Done before you
even look.

Every participant submission is automatically translated, summarised, and distilled into structured key points the moment it arrives - with verbatim quotes and video clips attached. By the time you open the project, the work is already done.

Automatic Processing

Three things happen
the moment a response arrives

No triggers to pull. No analysis to kick off. The pipeline runs automatically for every individual submission - video, audio, text, or form response.

Translation

If the participant responded in a language different from the project language, a translated version is created automatically and placed alongside the original. Researchers working across multiple markets see everything in the language they need - without lifting a finger.

Summary

A brief AI-generated summary of the submission - written in plain language and readable in seconds. Skim through fifty responses in the time it would take to read five in full. For video and audio, transcription runs first, so the summary is grounded in the full spoken content - not just a thumbnail impression.

Key Points

The heart of the pipeline. AI works through the full transcript or text response and extracts the distinct things the participant actually said - each one expressed as an overall thought, paired with the verbatim quote that illustrates it. For video and audio responses, each verbatim links directly to the moment in the recording - a clip you can save and use.

A 20-minute video diary becomes six or eight focused key points. Researchers never need to watch the full recording. The signal is already separated from the noise.

Key Points

The signal,
without the noise.

AI works through the full transcript or text of every response and extracts the distinct things the participant actually said - each expressed as a clear overall thought, paired with the verbatim quote that best captures it.

For video and audio responses, every verbatim is timestamped. One click turns it into a clip. A 4.5-minute video generates 549 words of transcript. A 60-minute IDI produces over 7,000. Key points mean researchers never need to read the full transcript or rewatch the whole recording.

So I have two types of driving. One is my van, which I'm in now, where I do really long distances. I travel, um, across England over Europe. I drive 3 or 4 hours at a time and I really like to cruise along. And the other is my little runaround car that I have at home, which I can pop to the shops in. And do really short journeys and just wanna have ease and quickness going about, so I have these two things that are really important to me. My driving, when I'm doing my cruising, when I'm in my van, I really like to have a bit of cruise control on the car. I want to have, um, love listening to podcasts and my music, so I quite like to have a good sound system around and obviously like when you're doing distances like that, it's really nice to have - just, you know, for your van to be comfortable, the seats to be comfortable. I really dislike it when you are doing long journeys, you're in a noisy car, you can't really hear your music, there's no air conditioning, your seats are really uncomfortable, there's nothing worse, but actually like a long journey can feel like nothing if you're in a comfortable vehicle. So that's really important to me. It's less important in my little runaround, but I live in the middle of the countryside, we have really bad roads, lots of potholes, narrow roads, you're often having to get up onto the verge to get out of the way or to allow a tractor to come through. And in that circumstance, I need to have a little car that I know can move out of the way but also isn't gonna get stuck in the mud, and I need to feel like I have a solid car around me. So I love brands - for my van, I love brands such as Mercedes, nice comfy cars with good reliable engines, but for being in the countryside I tend to go for older models because they just feel a bit chunky around me and I like to feel like I'm not going to be in a little bit of tin that's gonna get squashed by a tractor. I would never drive brands like a smart car. I really dislike them. They're fantastic for if you're in town, but in the countryside they just get stuck in mud. It's actually quite scary having a massive tractor go past you when you're in such a tiny little flimsy car. So I like to feel like I have something solid. Maybe a Land Rover. I haven't really gone as big as a Land Rover, but in the countryside I'd rather have something reliable and safe on the country roads. So yeah, brands like Land Rover - definitely not Fiats or smart cars. I feel like yes, it's more important to me to get a good mix. As I said, the roads are really bad. The traffic's not too bad - lots of tractors, farm animals, people on bikes, country walkers. So yes, I guess it's also important to me that once I hit a big road I can kind of push on and keep up with the traffic.

4 key points extracted from 549-word transcript
1
Navigating Challenging Countryside Roads with a Robust Car
Living in the middle of the countryside means dealing with really bad roads, potholes, and narrow lanes. My car needs to move out of the way easily and not get stuck in the mud - and I need to feel like I have a solid car around me for safety.
2
Comfort and Entertainment for Long-Distance Van Journeys
When driving my van for long distances, comfort and entertainment are paramount - cruise control, a good sound system for podcasts and music, comfortable seats. A comfortable vehicle can make a long journey feel like nothing.
Van Comfort and Entertainment 00:42 – 01:05
"I really like to have a bit of cruise control on the car… I quite like to have a good sound system around and like when you're doing distances like that, it's really nice to have your van to be comfortable, the seats to be comfortable."
Dislikes for Long Journeys 01:05 – 01:25
"I really dislike it when you are doing long journeys, you're in a noisy car, you can't hear your music, there's no air conditioning - but actually a long journey can feel like nothing if you're in a comfortable vehicle."
3
Versatility: Handling Country Roads and Motorways
Beyond bad country roads, it's important that once I hit a bigger road like a motorway my car can push on and keep up with traffic. That versatility across both environments is key.
4
My Two Distinct Driving Experiences and Priorities
I have two very different types of driving - long-distance travel in my van across England and Europe, and short quick journeys in my small runaround car at home. Each has completely different requirements.
A 4.5-min video still generates 549 words to read. A 60-min IDI? Over 7,000.

Maizy Chat

Have a conversation
with your data.

Maizy Chat lets you query the entire dataset conversationally - ask specific questions in plain language and get direct, evidence-backed answers. Available at any point during or after fieldwork. You don't need to wait for the project to close.

The underlying data Maizy searches is the structured key points - already cleaned, already focused, already separated from noise. Answers come fast and stay grounded in real participant language.

Maizy Chat is available any time - during or after fieldwork. You don't need to wait for data collection to close.
AI Idea Playground

Experiment before
the project begins.

The AI Idea Playground is a thinking space for researchers planning how AI can best serve a specific study. Before fieldwork starts, explore activity structures, probe approaches, and analysis strategies in a low-stakes environment.

This is research planning, not execution - but it's the kind of planning that makes fieldwork sharper and analysis faster. Think of it as a research-specific brainstorm where the AI understands qual methodology.
