WordStat is a flexible and easy-to-use text analysis software – whether you need text mining tools for fast extraction of themes and trends, or careful and precise measurement with state-of-the-art quantitative content analysis tools. WordStat can be used by anyone who needs to quickly extract and analyse information from large amounts of documents. Provalis Research content analysis and text mining software can be used in many applications such as analysis of open-ended responses, business intelligence, content analysis of news coverage, fraud detection and more. WordStat‘s seamless integration with SimStat – our statistical data analysis tool – QDA Miner – our qualitative data analysis software – and Stata – the comprehensive statistical software from StataCorp, gives you unprecedented flexibility for analyzing text and relating its content to structured information, including numerical and categorical data.
WHAT IT IS USED FOR?
WordStat can be used by anyone who needs to quickly extract and analyze information from large amounts of documents. Our content analysis and text mining software is used for:
- Directly import text and quantitative data from social media, online survey platforms, reference management tools
- Content analysis of open-ended responses, interview or focus group transcripts
- Business intelligence and competitive web sites analysis
- Information extraction and knowledge discovery from incident reports, customer complaints
- Content analysis of news coverage or scientific literature
- Automatic tagging and classification of documents
- Fraud detection, authorship attribution, patent analysis
- Taxonomy development and validation
WORDSTAT CONTENT ANALYSIS DICTIONARIES
Many WordStat users develop their own content analysis dictionaries. Such dictionaries are usually customized to the type of data being analyzed and to the variables that need to be measured. However, having access to existing dictionaries from others authors may be useful in many ways. It allows the analyst to easily assess other dimensions and quickly get a different perspective on his text data. It also makes his results comparable to those published in other studies. Such dictionaries may also represent a great source of inspiration for developing one’s own dictionary.
WORDSTAT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT (SDK)
The WordStat software development kit (SDK) provides a solution , allowing models developed with the WordStat desktop tool to be used in other applications written in other computer languages such as C++, Delphi, C#, VB.Net and so on.
An example of such integration would be the application of a categorization model on a company data collection system of customer feedback in order to automatically measure references to specific topics and to classify those feedbacks as either positive, negative or neutral.
With WordStat, Data Analysts can quickly extract valuable text analytics results from large collections of documents such as customer feedback, emails, open-ended responses, interview transcripts, incident reports, patents, legal documents, blogs, websites, and more. Here is a list of content analysis and text mining features of WordStat:
| IMPORT FROM MANY SOURCES
WordStat allows you to directly import content in multi-languages from many sources:
ORGANIZE YOUR DATA Several features allow you to easily organize your data in ways that make your analysis process straightforward:
QUICKY EXTRACT MEANING USING EXPLORER MODE Quickly and easily extract meaning from large amounts of text data using Explorer mode, specially made for those with little text mining experience.
Identify the most frequent words, phrases, and extract the most salient topics in your documents with the topic modeling tool. At any time, you can switch to Expert mode which gives you access to all WordStat’s features.
EXPLORE DOCUMENT CONTENT USING TEXT MINING In a few seconds, explore the content of large amounts of unstructured data and extract insightful information:
USE TOPIC MODELING TO EXTRACT THE MOST SALIENT TOPICS Get a quick overview of the most salient topics from very large text collections using state-of-the-art automatic topic extraction by applying a combination of natural language processing and statistical analysis (NNMF or factor analysis) not only on words but also on phrases and related words (including misspellings).
While in hierarchical cluster analysis, a word may only appear in one cluster, topic modeling may result in a word being associated with more than one topic, a characteristic that more realistically represents the polysemous nature of some words as well as the multiplicity of contexts of word usages.
EXPLORE CONNECTIONS Explore connections among words or concepts using a network graph. Detect underlying patterns and structures of co-occurrences using three layout types: multidimensional scaling, a force-based graph, and a circular layout.
Graphs are interactive and may be used to explore relationships and to retrieve text segments associated with specific connections.
RELATE TEXT WITH STRUCTURED DATA Explore relationships between unstructured text and structured data:
|
 CATEOGORIZE YOUR TEXT DATA USING DICTIONARIES Achieve full-text analysis automation using existing dictionaries or create your own categorization model of words and phrases.
In the dictionary, one can implement Boolean (AND, OR, NOT) and proximity rules (NEAR, AFTER, BEFORE) and use Regular Expression formulas to quickly extract specific information from text data.
Dictionary moderated lemmatization and stemming are available in several languages and an automatic word substitution option allows you to substitute several words with a target keyword. A user-defined list of stop words is available in several languages to avoid nonessential frequent words such as he, she, it, etc in the analysis.
GET UNIQUE ASSISTANCE FOR DICTIONARY BUILDING Get truly unique computer assistance for taxonomy building with tools for extracting common phrases and technical terms and for quickly identifying in your text collection misspellings and related words (synonyms, antonyms, holonyms, meronyms, hypernyms, hyponyms).
AUTOMATICALLY CLASSIFY YOUR TEXT DATA USING MACHINE LEARNING Develop and optimize automatic document classification models using Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbours. There are numerous validation methods that users can select: leave-but-one, n-fold cross-validation, split sample. An experimentation module can be used to easily compare predictive models and fine-tune classification models.
Classification models may be saved to disk and applied later in QDA Miner, in a standalone document classification utility program, a command-line program or a programming library.
RETURN TO THE SOURCE DOCUMENT IN ONE CLICK Verify or dig deeper into your analysis by going back to the text from almost any feature, chart, or graph using Keyword Retrieval or Keyword-in-Context to retrieve sentences, paragraphs, or whole documents. This is particularly helpful when building taxonomies or for word-sense disambiguation.
The retrieved text segments can be sorted by keyword or any independent variable. You can attach QDA Miner codes to retrieved segments or export them to disk in tabular format (Excel, CSV, etc.) or as text reports (MS Word, RTF, etc.).
PERFORM QUALITATIVE CODING Combine WordStat with a state-of-the-art qualitative coding tool (QDA Miner), for more precise exploration of data or a more in-depth analysis of specific documents or extracted text segments when needed.
TRANSORM UNSTRUCTURED TEXT INTO INTERACTIVE MAPS (GIS MAPPING) Relate unstructured text data with geographic information and create interactive plots of data points, thematic maps, and heatmaps, along with a geocoding web service for transforming location names, postal codes and IP addresses into latitude and longitudes.
AUTOMATICALLY EXTRACT NAMENS AND MISSPELLINGS Automatically extract named entities (names, technical terms, product and company names) that can be added to the categorization dictionary using an easy drag-and-drop-operation.
Misspellings and unknown words are automatically extracted and matched with existing entries in the user dictionary and may be quickly added to the dictionary.
EXPORT RESULTS Export text analysis results to common industry file formats such as Excel, SPSS, ASCII, HTML, XML, MS Word, to popular statistical analysis tools such as SPSS and STATA and to graphs such as PNG, BMP, and JPEG.
TRANSFORM TEST USING PYTHON SCRIPTS Use Python script and its full range of open-source libraries to preprocess or transform text documents for analysis in WordStat.

WHAT’S NEW IN VERSION 2025
Introducing WordStat 2025: AI-Enhanced Text Analysis
Generative AI has revolutionized text analysis, but it still faces challenges on more complex tasks. It also has limited scalability, potential biases and high cost, as well as lack of transparency. WordStat 2025 bridges the gap by seamlessly integrating generative AI with existing advanced text mining, NLP, and machine learning techniques, offering researchers complete control. Choose from leading AI engines, customize prompts, and even create your own for tailored analysis.
This release also brings major enhancements to existing features and introduces a groundbreaking tool for exploring differences in co-occurrences—delivering deeper insights with precision and ease.
A PDF documenting the new features can be downloaded by clicking here.
|
CHOICE OF SEVERAL AI ENGINES AND MODELS WordStat 2025 offers the possibility to perform text analysis and transformation using the engine of your choice among five online options (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude. Mistral, or Perplexity) and one offline option (Ollama). Users may also choose the model that provides them the performance they need at a price that fit their budget.
NEW AI-POWERED TEXT ANALYSIS AND TRANSFORMATION ROUTINES We evaluated multiple AI-driven features and integrated those that demonstrated strong performance, in some cases surpassing existing WordStat capabilities—though with trade-offs in processing speed and cost. Among the most effective implementations are sentiment analysis, pros and cons extraction, spelling correction, and automatic translation, all of which deliver highly accurate results across most AI engines. Additionally, we introduced AI-assisted readability scoring, lemmatization, segmentation of Asian languages (Chinese, Japanese, Thai, etc.), as well as grouping of Vietnamese monosyllabic tokens.
AI-ENHANCED NAMING OF TOPIC MODELS While generative AI engines are still unable to perform topic modeling on large datasets, they excel as providing relevant names to the extracted topics. While WordStat did already provide topic names, it is now possible to obtain more descriptive AI-generated names.
AI GENERATED GROUPING OF TOPICS A new AI script can be used to automatically identify grouping categories for extracted topics and then add the theme descriptor to the topic table. Saving the topics in a dictionary ends up with a hierarchical dictionary with themes at the first level, topics at the second level, and word and phrases at the third level.
AI SYNTACTIC CLASSIFICATION OF PHRASES WordStat 2025 enhances its phrase extraction routine by offering the possibility to use AI to classify extracted phrases based on their syntactic category. Once phrases are extracted, AI can be used to assign them to grammatical classes such as noun phrases, verb phrases, adjective phrases, prepositional phrases, etc. This categorization offers a more structured analysis, allowing users to focus on specific themes or topics, behaviors, processes, emotions, or other elements associated with different syntactic phrase types.
AI-BASED NAMED ENTITY CLASSIFICATION Traditional named entity recognition struggles with ambiguous terms and context-dependent meanings. WordStat 2025 introduces AI-powered entity classification which takes into account the surrounding context to accurately categorize names, organizations, locations, and more—reducing errors and improving precision in entity classification.
CUSTOM AI SCRIPTS FOR POST-PROCESSING AND ANALYSIS WordStat 2025 allows users to create custom scripts for post-processing table outputs, for applying text analysis or data transformation on the text dataset. |
With this flexibility, you can tailor the software to meet your specific needs by automating repetitive tasks, applying custom preprocessing operations, or integrating external routines.
MONITOR AI TOKEN CONSUMPTION Token consumption across engines, models, and projects can be easily monitored, providing better control over costs. Users can also obtain an estimated token count for prompts before execution, helping to prevent costly data transformations and analyses. This allows for better decision-making when selecting models, ensuring cost-effective usage.
EXPLORE CO-OCCURRENCE COMPARISON ACROSS GROUPS WordStat 2025 introduces a powerful feature for comparing co-occurrence patterns between groups, revealing subtle differences that traditional frequency-based methods may miss. While frequency analysis highlights general trends, it overlooks how words or topics may be associated in unique ways within each group. This tool helps identify contextual variations, such as how the same term may be linked to different concepts, concerns, issues, or proposed solutions. Comparisons can be made within subgroups of the current dataset or by using previously saved co-occurrence matrices from different datasets. We are confident that this tool will unlock numerous new possibilities and potentially generate the wealth of interesting discoveries for researchers and data analysts.
EXPLORE TOPIC RELATION WITH INTERACTIVE MDS PLOT WordStat 2025 introduces an interactive MDS plot that visualizes topic correlations in a two-dimensional map. Topics are represented as points or bubbles of different sizes representing frequencies or measured coherence, with distance indicating correlation strength—closely placed topics are highly correlated, while those farther apart show weaker or negative correlations. Clicking on a topic reveals a correlation table, allowing you to explore related topics in descending order of correlation strength. This feature offers a clear, dynamic way to understand and explore topic relationships.
NEW TOPIC DIVERSITY MEASURE Topic modeling results include a new measure for assessing topic diversity. This measure helps evaluate how varied the topics are within a model, providing a clearer understanding of the range and uniqueness of topics discovered.
IMPROVED DICTIONARY ASSISTANCE PANEL The Dictionary Assistance panel used to assess interactions between dictionary entries and evaluate the impact of wildcards now includes the ability to display the frequency of words matching the selected pattern in the current dataset. Additionally, panel entries can be filtered to show only items that are present in the dataset, streamlining the analysis process. |
