FAQ

Is this meant to replace user interviews or surveys?
Not necessarily. Real human to human user interviews will always be one the most powerful ways to gain insights from your customers. And surveys are great for more quantitative studies. Usercall is meant to provide a fast and easy way to get deep user feedback at the countless scale of surveys but 10x deeper insights—so your team can learn and iterate more quickly and frequently.
Does AI really understand qualitative data?
A highly skilled researcher with much context and experience can likely spot nuanced insights better than AI. However, it can take days of manual work to dig through interview transcripts to get to these nuanced insights. And we know the cookie-cutter responses you might get from dumping data to chatGPT isn't sufficient. UserCall’s AI goes through each transcript line by line to automatically tags key insights, detects themes, and highlights patterns so you can instantly make data-driven decisions. It's a tool to help accelerate the work of researchers and product leaders.
Can I customize how AI tags and analyzes data?
Absolutely! You can set custom themes, tags, and filters to align AI analysis with your specific research goals. You can also chat with your qualitative data with Usercall's Q&A feature and get detailed analysis such as frequency analysis, tag/theme summaries with supporting user quotes/excerpts and much more.
How long are the AI agent moderated voice user interviews?
Usercall interviews can last anywhere from a few minutes to 30 minutes or more. Similar to surveys, participants can feel fatigued if the interview lasts too long. And if the goals for the interview are clear, short interviews can provide immense value. In fact, you can gain 10x or more deeper and valuable user insights and sentiments from a handful of 5minute interview recordings than 100 survey responses.
How natural is talking with the AI interview agent? How will my users react?
Usercall's AI agents are designed and optimized to facilitate natural, conversational interactions. Latency in responses, turn-taking and interruptions are orchestrated with optimized constantly with the most up-to-date voice and LLM technologies—to ensure that users find the experience intuitive and similar to speaking with a human interviewer. In fact, we find many users who talk with the AI interviewer find the experience almost therapeutic. Users often will go in depth to open up and honestly express their deeper thoughts and feelings—more so than even talking to a real human. There's no need to 'be nice' and please the interviewer and users often feel that they are truly heard—with everything they say being listened and responded to. Lastly, it is clearly communicated to all users that they will be speaking with an AI agent. Usually this is via messaging and UI on the web based interview links. This ensures trust with users and allows them to open up during the conversation.
What kind of follow-up questions can the AI agent ask during interviews?
UserCall can ask pertinent follow-up questions that are derived from the user responses to uncover specific pain points, job-to-be-done, underlying desires and user experience issues. These follow-up questions help to uncover deep, valuable insights about customer needs which are crucial for product and business development and improvement.
How does UserCall minimize bias in interviews?
UserCall minimizes bias in interviews by applying training that avoids leading or suggestive prompts while formulating questions. This approach ensures the neutrality of follow-up enquiries, and ensures a more objective understanding of user responses based on facts and past experiences than purely subjective opinions.
