Making research insights
accessible to everyone
We're building the future of UX research analysis—powered by AI, designed for teams.
Our Mission
Every year, organizations conduct thousands of user interviews, spending countless hours recording, transcribing, and analyzing feedback. Yet the insights from this research often get buried in documents, forgotten, or duplicated across teams.
We built Umwelt to solve this problem — but not by replacing researchers. We're building AI tools that augment UX researchers, freeing them from analysis drudgery so they can focus on strategic thinking, stakeholder communication, and designing better studies.
Our platform transforms how teams discover, share, and build upon research insights — turning scattered transcripts into an organization-wide knowledge base that anyone can query. The AI does the heavy lifting, but researchers stay in control of what insights make it into reports.
We believe that research insights should be instantly accessible, easy to discover, and connected across studies — with full transparency about how AI recommendations are made.
The Problem We're Solving
Time Wasted
Researchers spend 60-70% of their time reviewing transcripts manually instead of generating insights and making recommendations.
Duplicate Work
Without visibility into past research, teams unknowingly repeat studies, wasting budget and participant goodwill.
Lost Insights
Critical patterns that span multiple studies go unnoticed because there's no way to connect findings across research.
Inaccessible Knowledge
Product managers and designers can't easily find relevant research, leading to uninformed decisions and research becoming a bottleneck.
Our Approach
AI That Shows Its Work
Every AI recommendation includes confidence scores, source citations, and reasoning. You're always in control of what insights make it into reports. Query your entire research corpus in natural language — ask questions like “What did participants say about onboarding?” and get instant answers with source citations.
Organization-Wide Knowledge
Every study, every insight, every finding — searchable across your entire organization. See what's been researched, eliminate duplicate work, and build on existing knowledge instead of starting from scratch. Institutional knowledge that doesn't leave when people do.
Built for Research Rigor
We respect research methodology. AI accelerates synthesis, but researchers make the final call. Think of it as an intern who never sleeps — fast at finding patterns, but needs your oversight. Every insight is linked back to the source with exact timestamps and full traceability.
