AI workflows

AI can code thousands of responses in minutes, but it’s not easy to know if you can trust the results. I build workflows that are checked against human coding before they run on your full dataset so you can have faith in your findings.

Workflow development and training

Can our team run this ourselves?

I build an LLM-assisted workflow for your data and questions, validate it against human coding, and train your team to run it on new data

You get
A documented workflow, agreement statistics, and training for your team
Good fit
Research, evaluation, and economic development teams that collect a lot of open-ended text

Large-scale text analysis

What are all those qualitative data signaling?

For survey responses, transcripts, documents, or scraped data, I build an LLM-assisted workflow for your dataset. The model’s coding must agree with mine on a random sample (Cohen’s κ > 0.7) before it touches the full dataset. Data handling is agreed in writing before any data change hands.

You get
A codebook, a coded dataset, themes with representative quotes, agreement statistics you can cite, and a documented workflow you can rerun
Good fit
Survey comments, interview archives, public comment records, and job postings

How it works

  1. Scope

    What questions the findings should answer, and what a correct answer looks like

  2. Build

    A workflow tuned to your data, with edge cases worked out first

  3. Validate

    The model’s coding must agree with human coding on a random sample (Cohen’s κ > 0.7) before it runs on everything

  4. Hand off

    Documentation, agreement statistics, and training so your team can rerun it on new data

What you’ll have at the end

The form depends on who will run it:

  • A ready-to-run notebook

    For teams with an analyst who works in Python

  • A tested prompt set

    For the AI tools you already use, with step-by-step instructions

  • A simple upload-and-run tool

    For teams with no technical staff who want something they can use right away

  • A documented process

    For analysts who want to follow it with the tools they have

Whatever the form, it is validated against human coding, documented, and built so your team can keep using it

Example

An automated program evaluation report

One workflow turns a survey export into a two-page report: ratings, coded themes with representative quotes, and recommendations tied to the evidence. The same workflow reruns each cohort.

Setup and training

I build and validate the workflow, document it, and train your team to run it

Ongoing support

Periodic check-ins and adjustments as your data or questions change
