In a world where data-driven decision-making has become all but necessary, research professionals are faced with a unique challenge: to find and collect the information they need amid an ever-growing sea of data. Today’s researchers are drowning in information; the total amount of data created, captured, copied, and consumed globally reached 64.2 zettabytes in 2020, and is projected to hit 180 zettabytes by 2025. That is a lot of data for analysts and researchers to parse.
But when it comes to making data-driven decisions, finding the right information is only half the battle. Indeed, the true power of data lies within the unique insights and opportunities that can be uncovered through careful analysis and interpretation. And if you’re spending your time organizing your information, you are expending valuable resources and energy on time you could spent finding those insights, leading to better business decisions and increased ROI.
That’s why the Nexis+ AI™ aims to make research easier with the Collect and Draft feature. In this article, we’ll show you how the features of Collect and Draft improve and streamline the process of researching and reporting, allowing you to capture information—including helpful citations and metadata—from your collected source information in just one click.
We’ve all spent time searching for a morsel of information we are sure we saved somewhere in our research. Without a good workflow and organization system, you can spend wasted minutes trying to find exactly what you need. Then, it takes even longer to tie it to other insights to paint a big picture.
But with Collect and Draft, that time gets cut down to seconds. What makes Collect and Draft most valuable to researchers is that it organizes all your research in a single, secure location. There’s no more copying, pasting, and formatting bits and pieces of information into a Word doc or saving article upon article as a bookmarked web page. Collect and Draft serves as an advanced article clipper that saves your findings to a single cloud-based collections portal.
This allows you to have a holistic view of your saved data, making it easy to make connections and identify trends that inform crucial business decisions.
Here are some of the valuable insights you can uncover with the comprehensive view of your research offered through​ Collect and Draft:
Valuable insights are often hiding behind surprising or unusual numbers, but if all your data is in disparate places, you will never find these anomalies.
With all your data in one place, it’s easy to spot deviations from the norm (like unexpectedly low revenue or surprising performance from a specific business or company unit) and highlight those findings for further analysis.
