Can generated interview reports show data visualization results? For example: gender ratio, age distribution, platform usage frequency distribution, etc.

Question Type

User Manual Question


Core Answer

Currently mainly text reports, data visualization is on the roadmap.

Current Support:

  • ✅ Interview records and insights (text)
  • ✅ Highlight conversation excerpts (quotes)
  • ✅ Consensus and disagreements (text summary)
  • ⏳ Data visualization (planned)

If Visualization Needed:

  • Current reports focus on text insights
  • Can request AI to generate data summaries in report dialogue
  • Future will support basic visualization (2026 Q2-Q3)

Current Report Content

1. Text-based Content (Supported)

User Profile Description

Interview Insights


2. Structured Data (Currently Presented as Text)

Example: Price Acceptance Analysis

If Visualized, Would Be:

  • Bar chart: Acceptance at different prices
  • Pie chart: User type distribution (Price-sensitive 40%, Health-anxious 40%, Social early-adopter 20%)

Data Visualization Planning (Future)

Planned Feature 1: User Profile Visualization

Demographic Visualization:

  • Age distribution (pie chart)
  • Gender ratio (pie chart)
  • City distribution (map/bar chart)
  • Income distribution (bar chart)

Example:


Planned Feature 2: Attitude Distribution Visualization

Acceptance Visualization:

  • Product acceptance (radar chart)
  • Pricing acceptance (bar chart)
  • Feature need priorities (horizontal bar chart)

Example:


Planned Feature 3: Opinion Comparison Visualization

Consensus vs Disagreement:

  • Consensus points (green highlight)
  • Disagreement points (red annotation)
  • Opinion evolution (timeline)

Example:


Planned Feature 4: Behavior Pattern Visualization

Usage Frequency:

  • Platform usage frequency (stacked bar chart)
  • Consumption frequency (line chart)
  • Decision pathway (flow chart)

Example:


Current Workarounds

Option 1: Use AI to Generate Visualization Suggestions

In Report Dialogue:


Option 2: Request Custom Report Format

Contact Customer Service:

  • If you are enterprise user
  • Need specific format visualization reports
  • Can customize development

Why No Visualization Currently?

Reason 1: Primarily Qualitative Research

atypica's Core Value:

  • Deep dive into "why"
  • Understand user motivations and attitudes
  • Provide insights rather than statistics

Qualitative vs Quantitative:

  • Qualitative: 5-10 in-depth interviews, extract insights
  • Quantitative: 100+ survey, statistical distribution

atypica is Qualitative-focused:

  • Sample size: 5-10 people (not suitable for statistical visualization)
  • Output: Insights and recommendations (text more appropriate)

Reason 2: Small Sample Size

Statistical Significance:

  • 5-10 person data not suitable for percentage statistics
  • "2/5 people like" more accurate than "40% like"
  • Avoid misleading (small sample doesn't represent population)

Exception:

  • If large-scale testing (50+ people)
  • Future may consider visualization

Reason 3: Insights > Numbers

What Matters is Insights:

Risk of Visualization:

  • Over-focus on numbers
  • Ignore underlying "why"

When Will Visualization Launch?

Roadmap

Phase 1 (Current):

  • Focus on qualitative insights
  • Text reports primary
  • Support export HTML/PDF

Phase 2 (Planned):

  • Basic visualization
    • User profile distribution
    • Attitude acceptance charts
    • Consensus vs disagreement comparison

Phase 3 (Future):

  • Advanced visualization
    • Interactive charts
    • Dynamic data exploration
    • Custom report generation

Expected Launch Time:

  • Phase 2: 2026 Q2-Q3
  • Phase 3: 2026 Q4-2027 Q1

Common Questions

Q1: Why no charts like survey tools?

Core Difference:

  • Survey tools: Quantitative research (100+ people), suitable for statistics
  • atypica: Qualitative research (5-10 people), suitable for insights

Analogy:

  • Survey: Physical exam report (blood pressure, blood sugar data)
  • atypica: Doctor diagnosis (why is blood pressure high? How to treat?)

Q2: Is chart with 5-10 person data meaningful?

Limited Statistical Significance:

  • 2 out of 5 = 40% (sounds like a lot)
  • But sample too small, can't represent population

More Appropriate Expression:

  • "2 out of 5 people think it's expensive"
  • Rather than "40% think it's expensive"

Recommendation:

  • If need statistical analysis → Use survey tools (100+ people)
  • If need insights digging → Use atypica (5-10 people)

Q3: Can I create charts myself?

Yes. Steps:

AI Can Help You:

  • Request AI to organize data in report dialogue
  • AI will provide data in table format
  • Can manually create charts or use other tools

Q4: Does enterprise version have custom visualization?

Can Be Customized:

  • Contact enterprise customer service
  • Explain visualization needs
  • Customize report format development

Applicable Scenarios:

  • Need to report to board
  • Specific industry report format
  • Large-scale repeated research

Best Practices

Recommendation 1: Focus on Insights Rather Than Numbers

Don't Ask:

  • "What percentage of users like it?"

Ask:

  • "Why do users like/dislike it?"
  • "What are differences between user segments?"
  • "How to optimize product?"

Recommendation 2: Use Surveys for Statistics

Scenario Division:

  • atypica: Explore "why" (5-10 people depth)
  • Survey tools: Validate "how many" (100+ people statistics)

Combined Use:

  1. atypica explore insights
  2. Survey large-scale validation
  3. atypica dig deeper into anomalies

Recommendation 3: Tell Story with Text

Good Report:

Story > Numbers


Bottom Line

"atypica focuses on insights rather than statistics, 5-10 in-depth interviews not suitable for charts. What matters isn't 'how many people', but 'why'."

Remember:

  • ✅ Current: Text reports, focus on insights
  • ✅ Future: Basic visualization (2026 Q2-Q3)
  • ✅ Workaround: Request AI to organize data in report dialogue
  • ✅ Qualitative ≠ Quantitative: atypica is not survey tool
  • ✅ Insights > Numbers: Focus on "why"
