DENVER, CO — (Marketwired) — 11/19/14 — iModerate, a leading qualitative research firm, today announced a partnership with Luminoso, an innovative, rapidly growing enterprise feedback management company born out of the MIT Media Lab. Recognizing the growing importance for companies to be constantly attuned to what their customers are saying, the two firms have joined forces to allow iModerate to more efficiently and effectively distill and report consumer insights.
Luminoso–s enterprise solution, which accurately organizes and interprets scores of rich consumer feedback, will be an integral part of iModerate–s newest offerings: (iM)merse Longitudinal and (iM)merge Analytics. (iM)merse, formerly known as Qual Tracker, is a strategic longitudinal qualitative approach in which iModerate conducts hundreds of one-on-one conversations with consumers on a monthly basis, allowing clients to keep a finger on the pulse of their target audience, identify trends and achieve foresight. Luminoso provides an invaluable interpretive dimension to (iM)merse, honing in on difficult-to-discern themes, insights, and early warning signals.
(iM)merge helps synthesize and make sense of consumer commentary in arenas ranging from customer service to research. With the aid of Luminoso–s intuitive and self-activated learning and listening methodology, iModerate can report on the main themes and supporting context which bubble up from massive amounts of text-based feedback. (iM)merge gives clients a focused lens through which to understand a tremendous amount of commentary.
“As we work to pioneer qualitative research at scale, Luminoso is an invaluable resource,” said David Howlett, iModerate–s Senior Vice President of Innovation. “This partnership provides the assurance that we will continue to provide the depth of insight that we do now as we begin to reach out to exponentially larger groups of consumers. No matter how large the volume of text, we–ll be able to find the needle in the haystack, hone in on it, and fuse it with our consumer conversations to better understand the context, nuances and sentiment behind the insights we–re uncovering.”
iModerate–s one-on-one conversations are more complex than other forms of qualitative consumer data such as tweets or consumer reviews. To that end, the partnership will enable Luminoso–s engine to grow even smarter and more accurate. While Luminoso has proven its value through projects such as as well as in the market research sphere, its capabilities will grow deeper with the focused, robust set of qualitative data from iModerate–s conversations.
“Working with iModerate enables us to create even more disruption in this dynamic field,” said Dr. Catherine Havasi, CEO and Co-Founder of Luminoso. “iModerate–s superb consumer feedback, and Luminoso–s ability to analyze it, are rooted in our deep cognitive understanding of consumers– thought processes and language patterns. There is no doubt that the wealth of unstructured text in the market research field presents an enormous opportunity for our EFM solution.”
