Insight Lens
What it does
Import PDF surveys
Drop in unit survey PDF reports and extract the data automatically — no manual re-keying or spreadsheet wrangling.
Rich visualisations
Charts for trends over semesters, comparisons across units, and breakdowns that actually make survey data legible.
Privacy-first
Everything stays on your computer. No cloud upload, no account, no telemetry — your survey data never leaves your machine.
AI assistant
Optional AI-powered analysis using your own API key. Ask questions about your data and get summaries in plain English.
Local SQLite database
Your data lives in a SQLite file you control. Inspect it, back it up, or query it directly — no vendor lock-in.
Cloud-sync ready
Point the database at a Dropbox, iCloud, or OneDrive folder and your survey history follows you across machines.
