##### Quick to learn, flexible to use

Quirkos is easy to master, with just the essential tools you need to help you focus on the richness of your small qualitative data sets.

Organise your sources, canvas and codes in any way, and finely categorise and filter your data. Our flexible design is agnostic, so you can use grounded theory, thematic analysis, or IPA as you prefer.

##### Cloud collaboration and secure storage

With a Quirkos Cloud subscription, you can collaborate seamlessly with colleagues in real-time. Our automated transcription service makes it easy to bring in your recorded data and get analysing quickly.

You'll also get unlimited cloud storage and the ability to work across all your devices, with your project data stored and backed up automatically on our secure servers.

##### Platform freedom

Enjoy the same intuitive experience and features across Windows, Mac, Linux, and any web browser - including tablets and smartphones with Quirkos Cloud.

Whereever you work, we don't share your data with anyone, have any unreliable 'AI' analysis, or use your data for training AI.

All versions of Quirkos come with continuous autosave, so you don’t have to worry about losing your work.

##### Data visualisation
See your data come to life with word clouds, overlap and correlation views, and theme hierarchies.

##### Side-by-side comparisons
Instantly compare and explore subgroups of your data with our comparison query view, and quickly export quotes for writing up.

##### Robust export options
Word files that look like highlighted printouts, customisable reports (PDF, Word or HTML) or CSV files to analyse in SPSS or Excel.

##### Secure Transcription
Our new automated transcription service turns your audio and video files in to text in minutes, using end-to-end encryption for maximum confidentiality.

##### Security by design
Quirkos Cloud encrypts your data end-to-end and at rest for protection, and no data leaves your computer if working offline.
