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.

Source record and evidence count remain attached.
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.

- Compared in the delivered report
- Attributes
- 25
- Organized into five feature groups
- Reviewer cards
- 796
- Attribute-tagged records in the base
- Attribute 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.
-
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.
Working viewProduct × attribute -
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.

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.
- 01Public sourceCapture the original language.
Keep the product, post, excerpt, and available timestamp together.
- 02Structured evidenceAssign product, attribute, and sentiment.
Use one vocabulary across the comparison set while preserving the source wording.
- 03Comparative signalRead direction with the denominator.
Review volume and source context before promoting a finding.
- 04Human decisionChoose research, requirement, or watchlist.
Your team decides what the evidence means for the roadmap.

“The source excerpt belongs beside the requirement, not inside a separate research folder.”
Illustrative operating principle, not a quote from the anonymized client.
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.
- Measured in the corpus
- In-scope products, tagged attributes, evidence counts, sentiment direction, and available source context.
- 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.
Honestly for research & development
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.
