About us
Vichara QDA is built for researchers, by a researcher-technologist. Our aim is to make rigorous qualitative analysis intuitive, transparent and affordable for every research team and student in India and beyond.
Every feature, from the codebook fields to the framework matrix, is designed around how qualitative researchers actually work, not adapted from generic productivity software.
Your research data stays in your own browser unless you choose to save it to the cloud. Nothing is sold, and nothing is used to train external models.
Save a project to the cloud and bring in your supervisor or co-coders, with editor or viewer access and clear conflict warnings.
Codebooks import and export using REFI-QDA, so your work is never locked in. Move between Vichara, NVivo, ATLAS.ti and MAXQDA as your project needs.
To simplify qualitative research so you can focus on what matters most: understanding people, and turning their words into evidence that drives real decisions in health, education and society.
Vichara QDA is developed by Dr G Hari Prakash, and built to support the kind of interview- and focus-group-based research common in Indian public health, social science and clinical settings, where affordable, capable qualitative software has long been hard to come by.
