Initiate AI analysis

Initiating AI analysis looks a little different depending on your mission type. Refer to the sections below for mission-specific instructions.

Express missions

In Express missions, AI analysis is initiated on the mission level. This means analysis will be generated for every applicable question at once. And once generated, the results will be available for all collaborators viewing the same mission.

Note: AI analysis can only be generated once per Express mission. We recommend waiting until your mission has 15 or more responses before initiating AI analysis, but you can do so with as few as five responses.

To initiate AI analysis in an Express mission:

  1. Navigate to the Responses tab of your mission.
  2. Click the AI settings button in the top right corner.
  3. Click Start AI analysis.

AI analysis typically takes a few minutes, but it can take a few hours if you have a high number of responses. When your results are ready, you’ll find them on the Responses tab. You can show or hide AI analysis features from view using the AI settings menu.

Diary missions

In Diary missions, AI analysis is initiated on the activity level. This means you can select specific activities to generate results for. Once generated, the results will be available for all collaborators viewing the same activity.

Note: AI analysis can only be generated once per Diary activity. We recommend waiting until your activity has 15 or more responses before initiating AI analysis, but you can do so with as few as five responses.

To initiate AI analysis in a Diary mission:

  1. Navigate to the Analyze tab of your mission.
  2. Click the AI settings button in the top right corner.
  3. Select activities to analyze.
  4. Click Start AI analysis.

AI analysis typically takes a few minutes, but it can take a few hours if you have a high number of responses. When your results are ready, you’ll find them for your chosen activities on the Analyze tab. You can show or hide AI analysis features from view using the AI settings menu. To initiate analysis for additional activities, repeat the steps above.

Live missions

In Live missions, AI analysis is automatically initiated at the completion of each session. When your results are ready, you’ll find them for each completed session on the Sessions tab.

Note: AI analysis is not available for sessions uploaded to Dscout from an external video.
