What are Focus Groups and How Does ChatGPT Help?
Focus groups are a method of qualitative research used to gather opinions and insights from a group of people about a particular subject. It is a form of market research in which a group of people are brought together to discuss and share opinions on a particular topic. The group is usually composed of people from different backgrounds and perspectives, which makes it an effective way to gain an understanding of how a particular product, service, or idea is perceived by the public.
ChatGPT is an AI-powered chatbot developed by OpenAI and launched in November 2022. It is built on top of OpenAI’s GPT large language models and has been fine-tuned using both supervised and reinforcement learning techniques. This makes it an ideal tool for researchers, marketers, and organizations who want to gain insights from their focus groups. ChatGPT can be used to facilitate conversations between members of a focus group and can provide the moderator with valuable insights into the group’s dynamics.

With the CSVs, you can upload anything from dozens of YouTube videos to thousands of Focus Groups.
Publicly Available URLs
You can also upload media to Speak through a publicly available URL.
As long as the file type extension is available at the end of the URL you will have no problem importing your recording for automatic transcription and analysis.
YouTube URLs
Speak is compatible with YouTube videos. All you have to do is copy the URL of the YouTube video (for example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKfcLcHeivc).
Speak will automatically find the file, calculate the length, and import the video.
If using YouTube videos, please make sure you use the full link and not the shortened YouTube snippet. Additionally, make sure you remove the channel name from the URL.
Speak Integrations
As mentioned, Speak also contains a range of integrations for Zoom, Zapier, Vimeo and more that will help you automatically transcribe your media.
This library of integrations continues to grow! Have a request? Feel encouraged to send us a message.
Step 3: Calculate and Pay the Total Automatically
Once you have your file(s) ready and load it into Speak, it will automatically calculate the total cost (you get 30 minutes of audio and video free in the 7-day trial – take advantage of it!).
If you are uploading text data into Speak, you do not currently have to pay any cost. Only the Speak Magic Prompts analysis would create a fee which will be detailed below.
Once you go over your 30 minutes or need to use Speak Magic Prompts, you can pay by subscribing to a personalized plan using our real-time calculator.
You can also add a balance or pay for uploads and analysis without a plan using your credit card.
Step 4: Wait for Speak to Analyze Your Focus Groups
If you are uploading audio and video, our automated transcription software will prepare your transcript quickly. Once completed, you will get an email notification that your transcript is complete. That email will contain a link back to the file so you can access the interactive media player with the transcript, analysis, and export formats ready for you.
If you are importing CSVs or uploading text files Speak will generally analyze the information much more quickly.
Step 5: Visit Your File Or Folder
Speak is capable of analyzing both individual files and entire folders of data.
When you are viewing any individual file in Speak, all you have to do is click on the “Prompts” button.
