  "title": "Qualitative analysis software with evidence-linked themes",
  "summary": "Evaluate how PulseLake supports coding, themes and research synthesis while keeping findings connected to excerpts. Researchers review the interpretation, including contradictions, before sharing conclusions.",
  "capabilities": [
    "Qualitative coding and theme clustering",
    "Findings linked back to supporting excerpts",
    "Study context retained through analysis and delivery"
  ],
  "criteria": [
    "Can a reviewer inspect the excerpts behind each theme?",
    "How will researchers challenge the interpretation and negative cases?",
    "What data rights, consent and access limits apply to the material?"
  ],
  "inputs": [
    "An approved interview or qualitative dataset",
    "Research question, coding approach and reporting audience",
    "Evidence-traceability and review requirements"
  ],
  "steps": [
    "Choose a small approved dataset and agree the analysis question.",
    "Review proposed codes and themes alongside the underlying excerpts.",
    "Resolve contradictions and approve the interpretation before delivery."
  ],
  "verification": [
    "Inspect source excerpts rather than accepting a theme label alone.",
    "Look for evidence that contradicts the main interpretation.",
    "Confirm that the report answers the original research question."
  ],
  "economics": "Compare the agreed software and study scope, researcher review, recruitment or sample, participant incentives and delivery requirements. Confirm current charges and inclusions before paid work; creating an account does not make every service free.",
  "switching": "Pilot a representative workflow and confirm data permissions, supported formats and required outputs before retiring existing tools. This page does not assert blanket feature parity or automatic migration from another product.",
