How it plays out
A consultation briefing needs recorded views, group differences, and who each finding includes.
Situation
Brief stakeholders on consultation views, group differences, and the limits of the response base.
How to get there
- Upload the consultation spreadsheet and select the response worksheet.
- Review the automatic first Brief for a readout of recorded views.
- Use Ask for a specific group question; on Pro or Max, use Tables for a separate breakdown by a recorded group.
- Check shares, response bases, and how the consultation was collected before writing the briefing.
What you get
- A first readout of the views recorded in the file.
- An answer to the stakeholder's group question with figures to check.
- A descriptive group table when needed, with counts and shares for the briefing.
Reduce briefing preparation; give stakeholders response bases to review without treating respondents as representative of everyone.
Illustrative example
Brief created in ~13 secRepresentative timing refers to a separate 48-row recording, not this illustrative dataset or screenshot. Clock starts before upload; timing varies by file. Loading and display affect total elapsed time; not a browser completion guarantee.
A community consultation asks for views on a proposed evening bus service, with age recorded for each respondent.
Upload the responses and ask: “How do views on evening bus service vary by age?”
An answer explaining how support for the evening bus proposal differs by age, with each group's share and response base for your briefing.
Where each tool fits
Upload for a Brief, Ask about recorded groups, and check shares and response bases before briefing.
Why DataWhisperer?
Prepare a briefing about the people who responded.
Explain the observed views on a proposal without treating one overall share as the whole story.
Ask about the age split directly
Ask how support for the evening bus proposal varies by age.
Keep the briefing grounded
Review each age group's share and response base before briefing stakeholders.
Common questions
How can I describe differences between groups?
Ask how views differ by group, then review the shares and response counts before writing your briefing. Do not generalize beyond the respondents without a representative design.
How can I follow up on an interesting pattern?
Ask a more specific question or request a breakdown of the recorded responses to see which groups contribute to it.
