Benefits

• Faster coding: Crunch uses AI to find the main themes in your responses and assign each response to a category, so the work takes minutes, not days.
• Consistent results: Save your categories as a taxonomy and reuse it on the same dataset or a different one. That keeps waves, markets, and studies comparable.
• You stay in control: Review, rename, merge, or adjust categories before you use them in your analysis.

How does it work?

Open a dataset and find the open text variable you want to code. Select Categorize responses from the variable menu.

Choose to generate new categories or apply an existing taxonomy. If you generate new ones Crunch generates suggested themes and codes each response. If you use an existing taxonomy, responses are coded into the categories you’ve already defined.

Review the results, refine the categories as needed, and save. The coded variable is then ready to use in tables, charts and filters like any other categorical variable.
