Discover what is possible with AI Assist

AI Coding (Beta)

Automate your coding process with AI Coding while maintaining complete control over your analytical work. Analyze a single document and get coding recommendations for text segments matching your coding criteria.

AI Assist provides comments for each coded segment, explaining the reasoning behind its suggestions.

Receive code label support

Unlock enhanced coding capabilities with AI Assist’s two code label recommendation features.

You can get new code recommendations based on a selected text passage with AI New Code Suggestions. Decide for yourself, which recommendation you would like to apply.

Alternatively, generate data-based subcategory division recommendations with AI Subcode Suggestions.

Chat with your data

Pose questions about already-coded text segments or entire documents. Responses reference specific text sections for easy review. You can harness the transformative potential of dialogue to:

  • Consider different angles to enrich your insights
  • Reflect on decisions for a more self-aware approach
  • Identify data gaps needing further exploration
  • Maintain consistent coding and interpretations over time

Generate term explanations

Quickly clarify unfamiliar terms or phrases without leaving MAXQDA.

Highlight the text, ask AI Assist to explain it, and get an instant answer saved as an in-document memo for convenient reference.

  • Entire PDF and text documents
