What is text analysis?

Text analysis is a process which automatically extracts machine-readable information from unstructured text (or data) to uncover insights and support data-driven strategies.

Unstructured text (or data) can take the form of survey responses, emails, support tickets, call center notes, product reviews, social media posts, rich media, feedback and much more.

Text analytics uses advanced statistical techniques, automation and machine learning to analyze huge quantities of text-based data at scale.

This allows organisations to effectively understand open-text feedback at and surface the most important topics and challenges. For example, how customers feel about a certain product or service, or what marketing campaigns resonated the most.

Frequently asked questions


Text analytics combines artificial intelligence and statistical techniques to automatically process large volumes of unstructured text and uncover insights from it.

Though text analytics and text mining are often used interchangeably, text mining involves the use of statistical techniques to retrieve quantifiable data for further applications.

Text analytics, however, is more about business intelligence: it enhances the data to draw patterns, insights, sentiment and trends for customer or employee experience programs.
Organisations, researchers and individuals can use text analysis tools to derive insights and patterns from unstructured data. For example, they can use sentiment analysis to uncover how respondents feel about a product feature, or topic modeling to identify customers' most common challenges or pain points.

With this data, they can then make informed decisions on business, market or product strategy. Text analytics focuses on insights discovery to help drive action within specialised fields like experience management.
