What Makes Decodis Different
Standard qualitative tools measure sentiment using text alone which fails to capture the intensity of emotion and often produces a false signal.
Decodis maps voice signals to the precise moments in the transcript where those signals occur. Each passage of speech is analyzed against the words being spoken at that same moment. This preserves emotional specificity over time and surfaces responses that aggregate tools consistently miss. By anchoring acoustic indicators to specific text passages, Decodis can isolate the emotions that respondents feel towards a specific theme or product.
Proprietary Methodology. Patent-Pending IP.
Decodis has a patent pending that covers its core acoustic-to-text timestamp mapping methodology. The patent protects the process by which acoustic indicators are mapped to corresponding text passages, a technique that distinguishes Decodis from any other voice analytics platforms.
The methodology was developed over six years of applied research. It has been validated across over 50 client studies spanning financial services, consumer goods, and healthcare — each of which required precision at the individual-response level analysis, not aggregate reporting.
Decodis operates across multiple languages, with expansion to additional languages continuously in development.

The Emotion Layer
Beneath the Words
Decodis is an AI-powered analytics platform that decodes what people say — and how they say it — across qualitative interviews, focus groups, and survey data. Its patent-pending acoustic-to-text mapping methodology surfaces emotional signals that text alone misses.

Four Analytical Layers. One Integrated Platform.
Decodis sits downstream of data collection. It takes voice-recorded research – individual depth interviews, voice-led surveys, and focus groups – and applies four layers of analysis, producing outputs that no single-method tool can replicate.
Qualitative Analysis
Thematic analysis of text at scale
Decodis transcribes and analyzes interview and focus group recordings, organizing themes and narratives across participant responses. Patterns that would take weeks of manual analysis are surfaced systematically, with full traceability back to the source material.
Voice Analysis
Tonal analysis uncovers emotion
The platform applies speech analysis to capture emotions such as sarcasm, frustration, enthusiasm, dismissal and more. These emotions are mapped back to themes to show how respondents feel about what they are saying.
Integrated Analysis
Qualitative, voice, and quantitative data analyzed together.
Decodis brings together text analytics, voice emotions and quantitative survey responses, enabling the platform to tell a comprehensive qualitative story with quantitative precision and scale. The result is analysis that treats these as a unified dataset rather than parallel workstreams requiring manual reconciliation. Personas, pivots, correlations across all at the touch of a button. A conversational interface allows analysts to interrogate results, ask follow-on questions, and create findings – no excel, Stata, or SPSS required.
Automated Output Generation
Research-ready outputs, without the production bottleneck.
The platform generates structured analytical outputs – findings, charts, tables, quotes and audio – directly from the integrated analysis. Refine outputs into branded decks and dashboards.
Trusted by Researchers Who Require Precision
50+ validated client studies across financial services, consumer goods, and healthcare anchor the platform's analytical claims.

Built on Methodology.
Led by a Researcher.
Decodis was founded by Dr. Daryl Collins, whose career spans academic research, institutional advisory work, and large-scale applied research in emerging markets. Dr. Collins holds a PhD in Public Policy from New York University and an MSc in Economics from the London School of Economics. She is the author of Portfolios of the Poor (Princeton University Press), published in seven languages and recognized as a foundational text in household financial behavior research. She serves as Senior Advisor at the LEIR Institute at Tufts University, and previously served as CEO of BFA Global.
Decodis began as a voice analytics research firm. Over six years of conducting qualitative and quantitative research across consumer, financial, and health sectors, the company perfected analytical methods that existing tools could not support. The AI-native Decodis platform is a direct product of that methodological history. It is an analytical engine built by Decodis researchers themselves to solve problems they encountered firsthand. That origin is reflected in the depth of the platform's design: every analytical layer was developed to meet the standards of research practice, with AI-native workflows to make it broadly accessible.
