One dataset, three apps, five minutes

The Data Alchemy Framework

Our consulting framework for moving data from what happened to what to do about it. Seven transformations, rooted in cognitive science and behavioural psychology, that run from Description, the input, through Distillation, Segmentation, Synthetic and Prediction, to Causation and Synergy. Description is never the deliverable.

Create real client value by combining analytical expertise with contextual understanding, co-developing bespoke solutions, not off-the-shelf products.

Synergy is what turns a model into a movement.

With deep experience on both the data and client sides, Knowsis bridges the technical and the strategic, not just delivering insight but embedding it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What you need to know about the Data Alchemy Platform

What is the difference between the Data Alchemy Platform and the Alchemist Agent?

+

The Data Alchemy Platform is Knowsis's self-service analytics suite, accessible at apps.knowsis.work. It gives researchers direct access to four analytical engines: Description, Distillation, Catalyst and Segmentation. The Alchemist Agent is a different mode of access to those same engines. Rather than configuring each engine manually, you describe your research question in plain language and the Agent plans the workflow, chains the engines in optimal sequence, and delivers a branded PowerPoint report autonomously. The platform is available now. The Alchemist Agent is in active development.

Who is the Data Alchemy Platform designed for?

+

The platform is designed for three audiences. Research agencies and consultants who want to deliver advanced analytical depth without a dedicated data science team. DIY researchers inside client businesses running their own surveys who want access to analytical methods beyond cross-tabs and frequencies. Small agencies and freelance researchers who want to deliver work at the standard of larger practices without the specialist overhead.

Where is Knowsis based and how do I get started?

+

Knowsis is headquartered in Cape Town, South Africa, and works with clients internationally. The fastest way to get started is to book a discovery call to discuss your research challenge. You can also access the Data Alchemy Platform directly at apps.knowsis.work.

If the decision you need is a persona set with its validation, that is consulting work rather than platform work. See the Persona Engine →
