Launch HN: ScopeAI (W17) – extract insights from customer conversations http://ift.tt/2f8DtiE

Launch HN: ScopeAI (W17) – extract insights from customer conversations I'm Luciano, co-founder and CTO of ScopeAI ( http://ift.tt/2wE6N6X ). We’ve built a product that automates the process of extracting and communicating user insights to product and operation teams. To extract product insights, we integrate with support channels such as Zendesk, Intercom and desk.com and use NLP to automatically tag, categorize and cluster support tickets. Customer support teams currently spend hours manually tagging customer support tickets to track trends in user feedback. The process is inefficient, lacks consistency and is reported retrospectively. This process typically fails to capture the granular insights requested by product and operation teams. Natalie, our CEO is a former UX researcher. In that world, the process for extracting trends from user interviews was completely manual. It involved codifying the conversations and counting how frequently certain feedback was mentioned. It was definitely difficult to scale. We recognized that there needed to be a better way of extracting trends from unstructured data and started working on ScopeAI! Some things we’ve learned/be happy to discuss further: -Our process for extracting key phrases from tickets - currently done through a custom pipeline built using spaCy -How we connect similar phrases - currently using a word2vec model trained on both GloVe vectors and text from tickets in our system -How we assign broader categories and sentiment analysis using Tensor Flow Here's an example of an insight we'd extract: There were 67 requests for subscription cancellations for company x during the month of July: • 24 requests “slow service” • 19 requests “I have another account with y company” • 8 requests “login issues” Knowing this is really valuable for this company because they can make better decisions - in this case, making the software faster became a much higher priority. Happy to answer questions and looking forward to hearing any feedback! September 19, 2017 at 10:33PM

A Google Engineer is reviewing all USB Type-C chargers on Amazon to inform customers which ones are safe for use on their devices

The USB Type-C take over has already started, and as this year comes to an end, we expect to see a few more smartphones and tablets hit the market bundling compatibility for the third-generation connection. As it stands, handsets that currently feature Type-C ports only ship with a single cable and that annoyingly doesn’t support computer connectivity, so if users want to transfer files to their devices, they have to purchase an additional wire or adapter. However, these accessories aren’t cheap, so customers veer towards the more affordable, third-party cables readily available on marketplaces, such as Amazon and eBay, but that’s not a good thing. Many consumers have reported that these chargers have caused harm to their handsets, so Google Engineer Benson Leung has taken it upon himself to purchase a selection of Type-C connectors from Amazon to test and see if they meet the standard specifications for use on his Nexus device. So far, Leung has been through seven cables and clai...
