Whilst we’re doing a lot of major work on Opinion Suite at the moment, adding in some substantial new modules, we also like to see if we can’t fit some quick wins into the work along the way.
One we’re releasing today comes from a desire we’ve found from a number of clients, to present complex consultation response data in simple and engaging formats at the push of a button.
So, we’re proud to unveil our new Opinion Suite Haikuulator. In essence, this new plugin takes a consultation’s qualitative data from across both respondent and question sets, and collates it into a short three line summary, dependent on the parameters you set. To build engagement and a sense of data contextualisation, we’re also including a reference to the season in which the consultation took place in each summation generated. We’re still playing with the optimal length of the summations, but the examples below seem to be about right.
We’ve been trialing it with a few clients now, and one of them has given us permission to republish here some of the beta summary outputs of one of their consultations using this new plugin.
Question 3
Satisfaction grew
Amongst key stakeholders
During the winter.
Question 7
Respondents suggest
Augmented monitoring
Of autumn leaf falls
Question 13a
Potholes are yet still
A source of worry in snow
Many trip over
The way we’ve built this new plugin means it should in theory be interoperable across a wide range of different engagement systems, so if you’d be interested in trying it out yourself as part of the pilot, then get in touch!
UPDATE: So, hopefully you all noticed the date and timestamp on this post. It’s an April Fool, but you know what, the more I look at it, the more an idea like this seems pretty cool actually…
