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.
