AI does the heavy lifting, people stay in charge

Use AI to interpret permitted inputs, suggest structured mappings and generate candidate outputs for the stated task modules, including sentiment analysis, categorization and summarization. Use deterministic code for arithmetic, schema validation, hard constraints and reproducible tests. Review source-linked explanations and uncertainty before accepting results. One fixed report template set and approved source list; final interpretation and people decisions remain human. A model suggestion is never a verified fact, professional decision or authorization to act.

What your team sees

Primary screens: Source intake and mapping, Editable report preview, Reviewer approval and delivery. Use a thumbnail gallery for report cycles, a large central report canvas, and a right-hand panel for source evidence, templates and comments. Let users compare report versions side by side. Display draft, changes requested and approved states. Provide a stakeholder preview link with comments anchored to the relevant finding. Make the task-specific outcome reviewer-approved feedback reports linked to their evidence visible beside its evidence, review state and value baseline.

Accounts and administration

Project ownership, source versions, reviewer comments, approval states, usage allowances, revision limits, download history and a rights record for supplied material. Add organization access boundaries, named reviewers, usage caps, data retention controls, export logs and explicit approval for external actions.

Integrations and data access

Communication, project management, CRM and career platforms, plus survey and review sources. Cloud storage, spreadsheet and document import/export and reporting destinations. Start with file exchange and validate destination specifications before promising direct publishing. Start with authorized file exchange. Validate current provider access, usage rights and schema behavior before promising a connector.

We build with our own AI software development factory, so most implementations take days to a few weeks of creation time, not months. You see working software at every step, and exact timing depends on availability.

1. 1

   Scoping call

   Day 1

   Thirty minutes on your process, your data and how you want to run it: for your own team, or for your clients. You get a fixed scope and price for the MVP.

2. 2

   MVP

   6 days

   One buyer segment, one recurring use case; first modules: ingest responses, comments and notes from connected platforms; normalize multiple data formats into one reviewable set. Manual review in the loop. Built by our AI software factory.

   We host, monitor and improve it for a fixed monthly fee, or hand it over to your team. How the retainer works.

Why we start with an MVP

An MVP, or minimum viable product, is the smallest version that your users can actually work with. It is not a cheap version of the full solution. It is a test, built to answer the questions that decide whether the rest is worth building.

1. Pick the riskiest assumption. Here: will HR, people-analytics and customer-insight teams producing recurring feedback reports use it to solve "feedback arrives in scattered formats and platforms, and turning it into structured, reviewable reports takes manual effort and loses the link to source evidence"?
2. Build only what tests it. One team, one use case, a few core modules. People do the rest by hand for now.
3. Run a paid pilot. Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: Accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval.
4. Measure, then decide. Track accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase. Then expand, change course or stop, with evidence instead of opinions.

MVP scope for this solution. Pilot scope: One fixed report template set and approved source list; final interpretation and people decisions remain human. Implement one approved input format, a bounded representative case set and the first two task modules: ingest responses, comments and notes from connected platforms; normalize multiple data formats into one reviewable set. Support the remaining modules with operator review: apply customizable report and survey templates; generate draft reports from raw inputs; produce clear summaries of key points; surface actionable insights beside their evidence. Include source references, corrections, basic organization access, approval states, export and value measurement. Use managed operator assistance for unresolved exceptions. The cost estimate covers this narrow prototype, not unrestricted multi-tenant scale, complex production integrations, specialist certification or physical operations.

After the MVP. Once paid pilots prove usefulness, automate repeatable reviewed steps and add one verified source integration. Expand supported inputs and case volume only after new evaluation cases pass. Build reusable customer configurations and recurring value reports around reviewer-approved feedback reports linked to their evidence. Retain the explicit scope boundary: One fixed report template set and approved source list; final interpretation and people decisions remain human.

What the build depends on. Source upload and preview, asynchronous processing jobs, editable version history, reviewer access and tested export formats. High-fidelity reporting requires specialist people-analytics QA. Obtain representative authorized cases, baseline measurements, qualified reviewers and a buyer-side decision owner. Specific limitation: One fixed report template set and approved source list; final interpretation and people decisions remain human.

A planning range to start the conversation, not a quote. You pay per phase, so you can stop after the MVP.

Selling it to your own clients: the go-to-market playbook

Pricing to test

Test a USD 300-1,500 fixed pilot for one defined report cycle. Offer a monthly production allowance after repeat demand. Quote complex multi-source or multi-team rollouts separately. These are test prices, not market benchmarks. Package the initial sale as one bounded reviewer-approved feedback report linked to its evidence. Recurring fees must specify volume, review depth and integration support. For exchanges, test a disclosed coordination or successful-service fee rather than holding customer funds. Reprice only after measuring real delivery labor; platform-build cost is separate from a commercial pilot fee.

Message to test

Reduce manual report assembly while keeping every summary traceable to source feedback. Demonstrate a concrete reviewer-approved feedback report linked to its evidence using the buyer's approved example and show the baseline, corrections and actual delivery effort.

Where to find buyers

HR, people-analytics and customer-insight professional communities; specialist consultants serving this buyer; permissioned partner introductions; practical demonstrations at relevant trade or practitioner events.

Lead magnet

A reviewed sample reviewer-approved feedback report linked to its evidence from a small authorized input set, with a transparent calculation of accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval and no promised savings.

The first 30 days

1. Week 1: interview five HR, people-analytics and customer-insight teams producing recurring feedback reports and inspect a recent example of feedback arriving in scattered formats and platforms, and turning it into structured, reviewable reports takes manual effort and loses the link to source evidence.
2. Week 2: prepare a consented or synthetic demonstration of the stated task modules.
3. Week 3: seek one bounded paid pilot with agreed baseline and acceptance criteria.
4. Week 4: measure accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval, reviewer effort and repeat-purchase interest. This is a demand-validation plan, not a thirty-day full-product delivery promise.

Paid pilot

Agree quality and outcome thresholds before the pilot using this measure: Accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval. Continue only if the buyer accepts the actual output, the intended job outcome improves without unacceptable errors, and measured delivery cost fits willingness to pay. Revise or stop if access is unavailable, qualified review cannot be provided, or apparent savings disappear after corrections and support. Use held-out cases when comparing model quality; use a properly reviewed comparison design before making causal claims. Record missing cases and negative results alongside successful outputs.

Success metrics

Accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval; accepted-output rate; material error rate; reviewer correction time; actual repeat purchase.

Retention and expansion

Repeat the workflow when the buyer again needs reviewer-approved feedback reports linked to their evidence. Retain permissioned settings and reviewed examples, report realized value honestly, and sell increased volume or adjacent approved workflows only after contribution margin and quality remain acceptable.

Why clients would pick it

A reusable library of approved templates, categorization rules and review examples, together with reliable delivery for a narrow people-and-customer insight niche. Build a permissioned library of representative task cases, reviewer corrections and verified operating constraints for HR, people-analytics and customer-insight teams producing recurring feedback reports. Repeatable delivery and useful integrations matter more than access to a base model.

Alternatives and positioning

Seamless feedback reports by Meander, Fydback and Reforge Extension, plus spreadsheets and manual report writing. Compare this product with the buyer's present method on accepted reports per analyst hour and corrections after report approval. Offer a bounded paid workflow instead of claiming broad autonomous expertise. Market uniqueness and competitor coverage are not verified.

Main delivery costs

Ingestion and processing, storage, reviewer hours, client revision rounds and licensed source material. Additional initial validation requires representative authorized sample preparation, buyer interviews, buyer-side evaluation and bounded validation of reviewer-approved feedback reports linked to their evidence. Track cost per accepted output, including correction work, unsuccessful cases and support.

Preserve respondent confidentiality, source attribution, quotation accuracy and usage permissions. Named reviewers approve substantive findings and distribution scope. One fixed report template set and approved source list; final interpretation and people decisions remain human. Keep all consequential actions under authorized human control and do not fabricate missing inputs, permissions, professional judgments or market evidence.
