Discuss Launches Discuss Intelligence, a Cross-Project Research Solution That Turns Every Study Your Organization Has Run Into a Queryable AssetATLANTA, July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Discuss today launched Discuss Intelligence, a research intelligence capability that enables enterprise organizations to interrogate their entire research library in plain language. It covers every study, survey, and open-end they have ever collected and returns quantifiable, source-traced answers in seconds. Discuss has spent more than a decade coding more than 11 billion open-ends, and that expertise in structuring qualitative research data is what powers the platform. The capability is available now. Key Takeaways - Discuss Intelligence delivers direct, self-serve access to years of consumer research to brand managers, product leaders, and marketing and innovation teams, enabling them to self-serve answers from years of consumer research without routing through the insights team.
The Problem Discuss Intelligence Solves Most enterprise organizations already have years of consumer market research collected and paid for. Studies sit in disconnected tools. Transcripts live separately from quant data. Insights that cost six figures to produce get filed away and never consulted again. Getting an answer from past research requires manually searching through old decks, files, and reports – and by the time the right answer surfaces, the decision has already been made without it. Some tools collect research. Some store it. Some search it. None of them connect collection, intelligence, and action into a single solution that works for every person asking a different question in a different language at a different point in the research cycle. Discuss Intelligence is not a repository or a bolt-on AI agent. It is a connected, living workspace with persistent research intelligence where insights are always available, always relevant, and always ready to act on.
“Every year, enterprises spend millions on research that answers questions for a few weeks and then disappears. Discuss Intelligence changes the economics of that entirely. The answer that cost an organization six figures that only six researchers have access to is still there, still findable, still relvant. That is a fundamentally different return on research investment,” said Daniel Graff-Radford, CEO, Discuss. Built for Research Data, Not Retrofitted for It Generic AI tools and research repositories were not designed to rigorously understand how qualitative data is structured. They match keywords. They cannot code an open-end. They cannot tell a team how many respondents said something, and they cannot trace a claim back to the segment and clip behind it.
Discuss Intelligence is different. When a user asks a question, the solution automatically identifies the relevant studies across the organization's full research library, scopes by segment and market, and returns an answer that includes volume, themes, data visualization, and supporting verbatims, each pinned to the original participant, segment, and video clip. Answers come personalized to the user's role and market context, with no manual configuration. A brand manager in Mexico can ask a question in Spanish and receive an answer in Spanish, sourced from actual consumer verbatims, in seconds.
According to the Forrester Wave: Experience Research Platforms, Q1 2026, Discuss received the highest score in Current Offering among all vendors evaluated, with top scores in AI-powered research, platform usability, data analysis, and roadmap. Access for Every Team Member, Not Just Researchers Discuss Intelligence is available to every team member with no per-seat pricing complexity and no administrative overhead. Brand managers, product leaders, and marketing and innovation teams can self-serve answers from years of consumer research without routing through the insights team. Insights leaders, meanwhile, gain full visibility into what the organization is asking, so they can identify gaps, flag findings that need context, and shift their focus from fielding ad hoc requests to setting the research agenda.
