SketchWave launches 'AutoFlow' to auto-generate user flows from raw research

SketchWave announced AutoFlow, a feature that ingests qualitative research artifacts—interview transcripts, notes, and session recordings—and outputs structured user flows, personas, and hypothesis maps. The company claims AutoFlow reduces manual synthesis time and highlights usability risks found across sessions.

AutoFlow uses a mixture of supervised models and rule-based extraction to map tasks and identify pain points, then extrapolates potential flow diagrams and suggested next steps. The feature integrates with SketchWave’s existing repository to attach user quotes and source links for traceability.

SketchWave is offering AutoFlow as part of an enterprise add-on and will run a limited beta for academic and non-profit research teams. The company emphasized human-in-the-loop workflows to ensure researchers retain control over final artifacts.
