Gavagai
Identify customer sentiment, visualize text data, and detect patterns and trends in large volumes of text.
What is Gavagai?
Gavagai is a text analysis tool that helps organisations make sense of large volumes of unstructured text data. It analyses customer feedback, reviews, survey responses, and other text sources to identify sentiment, spot patterns, and visualise trends. The tool is useful for teams who need to extract practical advice from customer opinions without manually reading through thousands of responses. Rather than just counting mentions or keywords, Gavagai uses natural language processing to understand what customers actually mean, making it suitable for market research, customer experience teams, and product managers who want a faster way to identify what matters most to their customers.
