How Evidano fit the workflow
A human-led workflow, with AI as a second lens
- 1Manual coding first
Researchers familiarized themselves with the data and coded it by hand using reflexive thematic analysis (Braun and Clarke) and the Gioia method.
- 2Analysis with Evidano
The same data were then analyzed with Evidano, the AI tool for qualitative research analysis named in the study.
- 3Compare and synthesize
Results from both approaches were compared and synthesized. The publication reports that Evidano supported "triangulation of findings and identification of patterns" that manual coding may not have immediately surfaced.
“an emerging AI tool for qualitative research analysis”
One analytic lens. Patterns can be missed. Cross-checking is hand-done.
A second lens for triangulation. Surfaces patterns manual coding may miss. Results compared and synthesized.
Use AI as a second lens next to your own coding, as the study did.
In the study, Evidano flagged patterns the manual coding had not immediately realized.
Humans coded first; Evidano supported their judgment rather than replacing it.
Evidano (as AILYZE) was named openly in the published methods section.

Evidano helped analyse interview transcripts in a peer-reviewed study, then was checked against manual coding.

A published mixed-methods study uploaded deidentified transcripts into Evidano to cross-check themes. Every AI code was reviewed by the researcher.
