The top 3 reasons why companies choose Chattermill as the #1 Thematic alternative

Best-in-class technology
Thematic uses Thematic Analysis to organize your data into themes, relying on significant manual adjustments and user input to ensure key phrases are correctly categorized. This method often focuses on tactical issues due to the limited contextual intelligence of modern NLP approaches.
Chattermill's Lyra AI offers a unique blend of ABSA, phrasal analysis, clustering, and Generative AI. This comprehensive approach breaks down customer feedback into specific aspects, grasps context effectively, and maintains high precision.
As a result, Lyra is capable of addressing a wide range of use cases, from specific tactical customer pain points (e.g. app crashing) to broader strategic business goals (e.g. loyalty and retention). This enables organizations to address immediate challenges while aligning their efforts with wider business goals.
