The Report tab gives you a topline view of your entire study’s findings — informed by your study objectives and background information, and presented in a clean, shareable format. It’s your go-to for a high-level executive summary before diving into the question-by-question depth of the Details tab.

Key Concepts Explained

Report Tab: Provides topline findings and an executive summary informed by your study objectives and background information. Primarily quantitative-focused and presented at the total level. Also available for export and sharing externally. Executive Summary: An AI-generated overview of your study that distills the most significant findings into a concise, stakeholder-ready format — covering key themes, notable findings, and insights grounded in your research objectives. Topline Findings: High-level takeaways from your study, presented at the total level (not broken out by segment or question). Ideal for an initial read-out to leadership or clients.

Pro Tips

  • Wait for sufficient data: Generate your first report summary after at least 10–15 interviews are complete. Earlier summaries may miss important themes that emerge from a larger sample.
  • Use the Report tab as a starting point: The executive summary is a powerful first draft. Review it, add your own context and expertise, and customize it for your specific audience.
  • Combine with the Details tab: The Report tab gives you the big picture; the Details tab gives you depth on each question. Use them together for a complete story.
  • Share directly with stakeholders: The report exports cleanly and is formatted for sharing with non-researcher audiences — perfect for executives or clients who want the headline findings.
