The difference
What sets us
apart
See the difference in how we process the same customer quote.
Customer said:
“"The login keeps failing and I'm going to cancel if this isn't fixed."”
Other tools classify this as:
Login Issue
Why? Keyword match on "login"
We classify this as:
Churn Risk + Login Issue + Frustration
Why? Context, emotion, and business impact
Most tools classify feedback by keywords. We understand context, emotion, and intent.
Keyword matching
- Match on keywords only
- Miss context and nuance
- Can't detect emotion
- No business impact scoring
Contextual understanding
- Understand full context
- Detect emotion and urgency
- Score business impact
- Connect to customer journey

Who we're for
Where we excel
Built for B2B products
Quality over quantity—no fluff-filled charts and graphs that provide zero actionable insights. From documentation, to Signals, to chat, we always prioritize getting exact citations and quotes so you know exactly what is happening.
Built for Product teams
Focused workflows tailored specifically for product teams (documents, datasets, signals, organization, summaries).
Internal + External Data
We're the only platform offering a comprehensive picture of what's happening internally and externally.
Intuitive and automatic
Teams who love us often don't have time to go through the data they already have and want to utalize the latest in AI in a simple to use manner.
Pricing for the entire org
We found per-seat pricing meant silo'd data that disempowered teams to stay aligned.
Who we're not
Where we don't
"All-in-one platform"
Our customers have tools they love for documentation, roadmapping, chatting, collaboration. We're focused on solving key operational workflow problems, not replacing ones you already use and love.
Per-seat w/ unlimited usage
While unlimited usage is can be cheaper and better for small team, as teams grow they often prefer tools that can scale in value without scaling in cost.
Manual labelers
We prioritization workflows and automation that save teams time. Some teams prefer going through feedback and transcripts line by line, while we support it, if that's your core experience, we likely won't be a great fit.
B2C amount of feedback
If you get millions of pieces of feedback per day, where you need high level charts and graphs, that give you a "vibe" for how things are going, but never needing exact quotes and citations, we may not be the best tool for you.
