What you'll get

After each completed session, Mayetik generates a structured AI summary. Here's an example of the output format — the actual content reflects each respondent's answers.

Sample AI summary

Key themes from this session

The respondent's answers highlighted three recurring themes — each supported by specific examples drawn from their experience. The summary captures what was said, not what was expected.

Two responses stood out as unusually detailed and pointed to an area worth following up on. The full text of each answer is preserved below the summary.

Suggested next steps
