CEO and Co-Founder Thematic

Thematic was born out of a clear need: businesses struggled to uncover what drives their Net Promoter Score (NPS) and customer experience metrics. Our co-founder, Dr. Alyona Medelyan, saw the limits of “black-box” AI tools and knew there was a better way.

By combining transparency with cutting-edge technology, Thematic gives you the power to balance speed and scale without compromising trust. Unlike outdated tools, Thematic evolves with every breakthrough in AI, continually refining how you analyze feedback and prioritize what matters most.

Our R&D team expertly combines Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Generative AI to deliver insights that are accurate, fast, and scalable

  • We don’t just adopt AI models—we rigorously evaluate, test, and fine-tune them to ensure they perform at the highest level for your needs.
  • Our approach is deliberate. By breaking the AI process into focused tasks—like uncovering overarching themes or answering complex user questions—we deliver insights that are precise and consistently reliable, eliminating “hallucinations.”

Robust and traceable AI analysis, in hours

When it comes to data analysis, transparency is key. You won’t find any AI black boxes here.

  • Themes emerge organically from what customers are saying, so you can discover the unknown unknowns, and get as granular as you need.
  • Users can easily drill down into themes and sub-themes and explore sentence-level details. They can also understand the logic behind the AI’s output and tweak it.

More than oversight, we bring your expertise ‘In the Loop’

Accuracy is top of mind for us at Thematic. We offer many ways for expert users to accept, reject or refine the analysis suggestions, to curate insights at scale.

  • You remain in control— use the intuitive Theme Editor to review, refine, and verify the themes and taxonomy generated by our AI for ultimate confidence.
  • As you refine themes, the AI makes adjustments to the analysis of the entire dataset, ensuring accurate, actionable insights every time.
