How Evidano fit the workflow
The publication describes a clear, traceable workflow from raw qualitative data to analysed themes.
- 1Transcribe.
Interview and focus group recordings were transcribed before analysis.
- 2Run exploratory theme analysis with Evidano.
Transcribed data was run for exploratory theme analysis.
- 3Add to the codebook.
Output was added to the codebook for comparative analysis, searching for emerging patterns, trends and divergence across informants.
- 4Cross-validate.
The evaluator relied on recordings, transcripts and notes to check theme accuracy, iterating and correcting where needed.
From bottleneck to workflow
Hand-coding hundreds of pages. Slow comparison across sources. Patterns easy to miss at scale. Hard to revisit and iterate.
Exploratory themes surfaced quickly. Comparative analysis across informants. Emerging patterns and divergence flagged. Researcher reviews, iterates, corrects.
Evidano use is named in the methods of a UNITAR evaluation, not a vendor case study.
Tool use was openly disclosed, with the evaluator cross-validating every theme.
Interviews, focus groups and 150+ documents across diverse stakeholder groups.
Evidano supported exploratory theme analysis while the researcher kept interpretive control.
