Last week, we launched , a solution for using ParallelDots NLP APIs to do text analysis on unstructured data without writing a single line of code. The Excel add-in is very easy to use and provides a convenient, yet effective solution for your text analysis needs. In an earlier , we provided you with detailed information of how the excel add-in works. In this post, we will discuss some real-world use cases where you can use the Excel Add-in to raise your analytics game without spending a fortune on building a data science team. ParallelDots Excel add-in post Text analysis on product reviews from E-commerce sites, Facebook Pages and other review sites You can analyze a corpus of customer reviews to understand the general impression about your product. The Excel add-in works on ParallelDots AI APIs, which are being used extensively by developers and enterprises to empower their analytics since the last two years. Furthermore, you can run keyword analysis on positive and negative sentiment sentences to discover why people like or dislike your product. Such an analysis will enable you to understand the key phrases contributing to the overall sentiment around your product. For example, a phone manufacturer company can analyze reviews from e-commerce sites, social media, and tech review blogs for their models. They can then extract keywords for both positive and negative sentiment sentences to find which features (screen, battery life, camera, storage, etc.) users liked or disliked about a particular phone model. Additionally, you can go a level deeper by analyzing the intent of the product reviews and categorize them to identify whether the review counts as the feedback, opinion, query or spam. This will help in filtering essential reviews and replying/acting on them faster. The analyzed data, i.e. sentiment, keywords and intent, can be correlated with your internal business metrics such as marketing spends, sales data etc. to find actionable insights. Analyse open-ended user feedback from surveys Open-ended feedback forms have proven to be more useful than close-ended ones(Folks at our market research division, Karna AI, have written a extensive blog on analyzing open-ended user surveys. You can read it ) but analyzing them can be very time-consuming and expensive task. here Our Excel Add-in is a lifesaver when it comes to analyzing open-ended surveys. Once you have exported all the survey responses in xlsx or csv format and installed the add-in, you can start analyzing the responses straight away without writing a single line of code. The Excel add-in makes it simple for anyone and everyone to perform AI-powered text analysis. Methodology can be same as the one mentioned in the product reviews analysis, and you can incorporate entity extraction function along with keyword analysis to discover broader entities (product name, person name etc.) talked about in the surveys. Text Analysis for financial content Financial data such as earnings call, news articles, transcripts etc. contain lot of rich information which can form basis for your fundamental investment and financial research. The BFSI sector is heavily equipped with textual data. Since excel remains an integral part of any financial analyst’s toolkit, ParallelDots Excel add-in can help to correlate many of the structured data points found in financial documents (balance sheets, trading history, P&L statements) with those found in unstructured financial documents. Analyzing social media content from your social listening tool While social listening tools do a good job of tracking every conversation about your brand or product on the internet, building good text analytics capability is only considered as an afterthought in most of these tools. The data from such social listening tools analyzed by a powerful text analytics tool like ParallelDots Excel add-in can provide a good overview of your social presence.
