Know Your Customer
Last Updated on August 12, 2025
Every interview is more than a transcript — it’s a story about a person’s life, problems, and choices.
The real goal of discovery isn’t just collecting quotes, but understanding your customer as a whole human being.
Why This Matters
When you truly know your customer, you can:
See what frustrates them most
Spot the workarounds and habits they rely on
Understand their priorities (what they care about deeply vs. what’s just “nice to have”)
Speak in their own language so your message resonates
How the Platform Helps You Do This
Of course, pulling all this from a raw transcript can be overwhelming.
That’s where our analysis tools step in:
Meta Analysis highlights the most important parts of an interview — the quotes, the themes, and the subtle hints (implicit insights) that reveal how your customer really thinks and feels.
Note Analysis works the same way for written notes or observations, so even quick field notes or feedback from a report can help you build a richer picture of your customer.
Together, these tools don’t just save you time — they help you notice details you might have missed and connect them directly to your hypotheses.
The Result
Instead of looking at scattered quotes, you build a clear, evidence-based picture of your customer:
What they want
What frustrates them
How they make decisions
What they’ll likely value in your solution
This is what it really means to “know your customer” — and it’s the foundation for making every next step in discovery meaningful.
