Honestly for research & development

Build the roadmap from what people value.

Honestly turns scattered product conversations into structured, source-linked evidence. Compare products by customer-valued attributes, surface recurring strengths and objections, and carry the original language into requirements.

Opinion evidence describes the reviewed corpus. It does not establish market share, product causation, or future demand.

A fixed, reviewable base

The denominator belongs beside the decision.

The anonymized delivered smartphone study used one fixed corpus for coverage, feature comparisons, and reviewer context. Every displayed metric carried its sample size; headline leaderboards required at least ten tagged mentions.

Four product decisions

Do more than count requests.

Product teams need to know what experience sits behind a request, how often it appears in the reviewed evidence, which products it affects, and where the language came from.

  1. 01

    Compare value

    See which attributes matter in each product context.

    Organize opinions around a shared vocabulary, then compare strengths, tradeoffs, and objections product by product instead of flattening them into one portfolio score.

  2. 02

    Review issues

    Bring recurring objections into roadmap review.

    Separate an isolated complaint from a repeated experience, then open the underlying reviewer language before deciding whether the issue deserves research, design, or engineering attention.

    Prioritize carefully

    Keep sample size attached to every signal.

    A strong ratio built from a small base should not carry the same weight as a pattern supported by substantial volume. Honestly keeps the denominator visible while your team applies judgment.

  4. 04

    Write the requirement

    Carry customer language into the handoff.

    Attach the excerpt, product, attribute, source, and available context to the requirement so design and engineering can inspect the experience—not just a rewritten summary.

    Working viewRequirement × provenance

From language to roadmap

A requirement should be traceable to the experience behind it.

Honestly structures the evidence without pretending the system made the product decision. The research record stays separate from the team's interpretation and priority.

    Keep the product, post, excerpt, and available timestamp together.

    Structured evidenceAssign product, attribute, and sentiment.

    Use one vocabulary across the comparison set while preserving the source wording.

Anonymized delivered work

Nine products. One vocabulary. Every figure in context.

The delivered smartphone study compared 25 customer-experience attributes across nine products. Its 796 reviewer cards yielded 2,569 attribute mentions across five feature groups and six source types.

Study disclosure. The client and product-family names are withheld. Percentages in the case study describe the fixed report corpus, not current market share or a live market estimate.

Evidence boundaries

Know what the research can support.

Clear labels make the work more useful. The source record, structured finding, and product decision are related—but they are not interchangeable.

Interpreted by Honestly
Whether a pattern looks like a supported strength, an objection to inspect, or a question that needs more collection.
Decided by your team
Research priority, requirement, sequencing, and investment—using product strategy, feasibility, and other first-party evidence.
Not established by opinion data alone
Market share, causal product impact, revenue, or future demand. Those conclusions require additional evidence.

Put the customer experience inside the roadmap.

Bring a product portfolio, competitive set, or market. Honestly will show you the source-linked opinion layer underneath it.
