2. Core Features

AI-Assisted Analysis with Human-in-the-Loop

Looppanel helps teams analyze qualitative data the way researchers actually work - by connecting insights across the research while preserving context, nuance, and evidence. The AI does the heavy lifting to surface patterns and organize data, while researchers stay in control - reviewing, editing, and validating insights before anything is finalized. Looppanel performs structured, multi-level qualitative analysis, including:

• AI-thematic analysis: Surfaces patterns across research sessions and allows researchers to validate, edit, or refine themes before insights are finalized and organized across the project
• AI Insights Reports: Looppanel automatically generates AI-assisted insights reports that synthesize findings across themes, with evidence embedded in every insight. These reports are designed to be shared directly with stakeholders and leadership.
• Discussion guide based synthesis: Automatically organizes notes, responses, and insights under each research question from the discussion guide, making it easy to compare participants and synthesize findings
• Ask AI: Ask AI is a conversational interface that lets teams interact with their research repository to - Ask questions across interviews within a project, and generate quick summaries or TL;DRs for stakeholders
• Interview-level summaries: Consistent summaries for every interview, making it easy to scan sessions and decide where to dive deeper
• Sentiment analysis: Identifies positive, negative, and neutral sentiment across responses to help teams quickly spot emotional signals, intensity, and shifts in user perception—while still preserving full qualitative context

Transcription Engine

• Looppanel’s transcription engine doesn’t just convert audio to text, it produces research-ready transcripts with industry-leading accuracy that researchers can trust. Across English-language calls - including varied accents, dialects, and industry-specific vocabulary - Looppanel delivers 95%+ accurate transcripts that reflect what was actually said, minimizing errors and reducing the need for heavy manual correction.
• This high degree of accuracy matters because every downstream insight, tag, summary, and analysis depends on the quality of the transcript. When transcripts closely match real conversation, teams spend less time editing and more time analyzing and uncovering meaningful patterns.
• The engine also supports 90+ languages, with automatic language identification and transcription, making global research scalable without losing quality.
• Unlike generic speech-to-text tools that produce rough drafts, Looppanel’s transcripts are editable and structured for research workflows, so researchers can fine-tune terminology, fix speaker labels, and prepare data for analysis — all within the same platform.
  

'Auto-Analysis' Feature for AI-Thematic Analysis of Qualitative Data

Looppanel’s AI-Thematic Analysis (a.k.a. Auto-Tagging) helps teams quickly surface and organize patterns across qualitative research, without replacing researcher judgment or breaking context.

• Looppanel analyzes conversations in the context of each project and automatically suggests tags that reflect what researchers are actually looking for, such as behaviors, problems, tasks, needs, and objections. These suggestions act as a starting point, allowing researchers to review, edit, and refine themes before they are finalized.
• Looppanel's Auto-Tagging feature supports fully customizable and editable tag schemas, so teams can align analysis with their research framework, domain language, or internal taxonomy.
• Tags can be applied or adjusted in bulk across multiple sessions, making it easy to scale analysis without manually coding each interview.
• As tagging progresses, Looppanel automatically organizes insights thematically across the entire project, helping teams see what is recurring, what is isolated, and where patterns strengthen or weaken across sessions.
• These themes then roll up into an Insights Report built directly on top of the thematic analysis, ensuring that synthesis stays grounded in reviewed and validated data.

Centralised Searchable Research Repository

Looppanel provides a centralized research repository where interviews, usability tests, transcripts, surveys, notes, reports and insights live together.

Teams can search across their entire workspace using smart, AI-powered search that surfaces relevant information even if it hasn’t been manually tagged. This means researchers don’t need to spend excessive time maintaining tags or rigid structures for the repository to stay useful and discoverable at scale.

In addition to smart search, research can be filtered using metadata and structured dimensions, including:

• Themes
• Creators
• User or participant attributes
• Feature area or product surface
• Workflow, study, or project type

In addition to internal discovery, Looppanel offers an External Repository View, allowing teams to share a curated, read-only view of research with stakeholders outside the core research team.With the External Repository View, stakeholders can:

• Explore research findings in a structured, self-serve way
• Browse themes, insights, and clips without accessing the full workspace
• Stay grounded in real evidence without needing a Looppanel account

By combining smart search, metadata-based filtering, and controlled external access, Looppanel helps teams build a long-term, organization-wide research memory — without the overhead of constantly maintaining a perfectly tagged repository.

Video Clips & Highlight Reels

Every note created in Looppanel is a shareable video clip by default. These video clips can be shared with colleagues as a link, downloaded to your local computer, or embedded into other tools like Jira, Confluence, or Notion for your team to watch their directly. Creating and sharing video clips in Looppanel is as easy as a single click.

Researchers can also stitch together multiple video clips into a 'Highlight Reel'. For example, if multiple users complained about the same bug, you can stitch those clips together in one link with the click of a button on Looppanel.

Insights Summary Reports

Evidence-Linked, Source-Grounded Insights

You can create 'Insights' in Looppanel that describe key takeaways from your research. An 'Insight' in a combination of your takeaway as well as the evidence (quotes, video clips, data points) that back it up.

Insights in Looppanel can be combined together in a single Insight Summary Report. These reports are completely editable, shareable with your colleagues with a link, and include all your insights in one place.

Insights Summary Reports usually contain:

• Description of your research study
• Key Insights
• Quotes & video clips as evidence

Looppanel's 'Auto-Analysis' feature also suggests draft insights that you can easily use in your report. It'll auto-populate

Collaboration Layer

Looppanel makes it easy to share research in the form stakeholders actually engage with, without losing control over access or context. Researchers can share:

• Individual clips or reels
• Insight reports
• Entire projects or selected files

Sharing of clips/reels can be done via direct links or embeds within Notion or Jira, or controlled external access with granular permissions. Teams can decide exactly what stakeholders can view - whether that’s a single clip, a reel, or a file or project.
