Opens / verbatim translation
We translate open-ended answers, or verbatims, to help researchers fully understand and accurately analyze or code their survey data.
As part of the service, we also share notes and clarifications from our team of translators to highlight and explain cultural references and items mentioned in open-ended answers/verbatims and identify invalid responses.
All of our linguists have a full understanding of market research and a proven track record in sectors such as Healthcare, Consumer & Retail, and Financial Services, allowing us to deliver fast and accurate results.
In-language coding
Supporting researchers and end-clients to draw key findings from their research.
Our in-language coders use a shared English code frame to code directly from the local language, eliminating the need for data translation and allowing for quicker analysis. The shared code frames allow for real-time updates and simultaneous coding.
We code millions of in-language responses in over 25 markets while adhering to the quality guidelines set by ISO 20252.
- Creation of the code frames
- Bad ID check / DQ check (flagging of nonsensical or poor-quality responses for removal before coding)
- Super fast multimarket brand coding (automated)
- In-language coding of full open-ends
- In-language coding and machine translation of full open-ends via Codeit
- Reporting of Adverse Events in respondent data (healthcare)
Transcription, content analysis, interpreting & subtitling
Identify themes and trends across a wide range of respondents.
Improve your understanding of multicultural markets by identifying patterns, themes, and relationships within the data collected from sources such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, or social media platforms.
To help you analyze large amounts of qualitative data in a systematic and efficient manner, we offer:
- Transcription of recorded focus groups, in-depth face-to-face or telephone interviews transcribed either into the participant’s language or directly into English in a single step.
- Content Analysis in client-specific formats.
- Live and/or “after the event” Interpreting for IDIs and FGs
- Creation and translation of subtitles for interviews, videos, training materials, etc.
AE reporting
Maximize the accuracy of your adverse event reporting.
Improve patient safety, increase compliance, and get a better understanding of patient experiences with adverse event reporting in multiple languages.
When adverse event reporting is conducted in a patient’s native language, it can improve the accuracy and completeness of the data collected, reducing the risk of errors and misunderstandings.
We can provide a comprehensive reporting of adverse events service, both as a standalone option and integrated into our coding process.
Social listening
Understand what people say about your product, brand, or industry - as it happens.
Our trained Linguists and Projects Managers take part in all stages of Social Media Listening projects – from Search Term Translation to Reporting Writing.
- Search Term Translation, including market-specific desktop research, into local languages
- Data Cleaning of posts/discussions/mentions
- Research & Analysis, including back-translation of relevant posts
