I like to think about ML in terms of how children learn language: through observation in their environment. The training data is a simulation of that environment.
Glad you liked the website and the blog post!
Thank you so much for the offer of introductions. Definitely interested, as we sell internationally, not just in the US.
You can check specific examples in our white paper: http://www.getthematic.com/net-promoter-score-verbatims/ (Don't need to download it, the bulk of the results is published on the page.)
In practice, some customers have read samples of responses and expect certain themes. Others have manually tagged them in the past. They compare their results with their fundings and can see straight away if our results are accurate and reliable.
However, we do have tools to review and adjust the results of Thematic by hand. For example, we have an internal drag and drop interface. Some customers really like to change the themes based on their view of the data. But it also helps to remove any inaccuracies, e.g. an incorrectly merged theme.
thanks for the feedback.
Don't have such a plugin, but we do have integrations with Zendesk and SurveyMonkey.
We can analyze pretty much any dataset with text fields. The input is a CSV spreadsheet.
