#### Reducing people to boxes loses the nuances needed to make decisions with confidence.

Boxes, scores, and closed choices make processing easier, but erase nuance. Decisions then rely on intuition, or chance.

Harmate starts from this observation: let people answer freely, without losing the ability to analyze, compare, and decide.
- The Problem

#### Responses Are Impoverished

People do not fully say what they think. They choose among the available options.

#### Nuances Disappear

Intentions, expectations, hesitations, and compatibilities become hard to read, compare, and use.

#### Decisions Become Fragile

When analysis no longer makes it possible to decide clearly, choices rely on gut feeling.

#### From Open-Ended Responses to Decisions That Move Work Forward

Harmate turns qualitative material that is hard to review into readable signals, sourced findings, and shareable actions.
- Open Questions

#### The Original Material Stays Intact

People answer in their own words without reducing their perspective to a checkbox or score.
- Open-Ended Responses

#### Signals Become Readable

The analysis connects related wording, surfaces themes, and keeps the verbatims that illuminate them.
- Themes & Verbatims

#### Source Excerpts Stay in Reach

Themes point back to their verbatims, while cited findings retain the excerpts used.
- Reviewable Readings

#### Analysis Opens the Next Action

Prioritize an action, prepare a decision file, or create groups when that genuinely serves your objective.

#### Why checkboxes are no longer enough

#### What are the most frequently asked questions?

#### What does Harmate transform in practice?

Harmate turns open-ended responses into themes linked to verbatims and findings supported by excerpts. You then choose the evidence to carry into a decision, file, or grouping when your objective calls for it.

#### Can I use Harmate without creating groups?

Yes. Theme, verbatim, gap, and signal analysis can directly support a diagnosis, recommendation, or action plan. Grouping remains available when it genuinely helps the decision.

#### What is the difference between Simulation and Real Mode?

Simulation lets you test questionnaire logic and explore scenarios with personae before distribution. Real Mode collects responses from your audience in the field so you can analyze real material and decide.

#### Can I analyze responses I already collected?

Yes. Import existing responses through the available formats and connectors, clean the corpus, and bring it into the same analysis and decision workflow as Harmate collections.

#### How does Harmate keep decisions explainable?

Themes provide access to their verbatims, while cited findings retain the excerpts used. The team can then select the evidence to add to a decision file.

#### How does grouping work when it is useful?

You define criteria, weights, and constraints. Harmate analyzes the responses and proposes a distribution grounded in that material, which you can review and adjust before using it.
