Taxonomy

Build an AI-powered product taxonomy to automatically categorize and label your customer signals. Paste your docs, get a 4-level hierarchy, and let AI auto-label everything.

Taxonomy Explorer with Domain, Product, Feature, and Tag columns plus a pain-points detail panel

Organize your signals automatically

Stop manually categorizing feedback. Build your product taxonomy and let AI auto-label every signal.

4-Level Hierarchy

Domain, Product, Feature, and Tag levels that mirror how your product is actually structured.

AI Auto-Labeling

AI labels incoming signals to the right Product, Feature, and Tag. Run in backfill or overwrite mode.

Generate from Docs

Paste your product documentation and AI generates your entire taxonomy tree. Then refine from there.

Custom Labeling Instructions

Add descriptions and instructions to any node so the auto-labeler handles ambiguous features correctly.

The 4-level hierarchy

Domains organize at the top. Products, Features, and Tags are auto-labeled by AI.

Level 1

Manual

Domain

High-level product area or customer journey

e.g.:CollaborationIntegrationsAdmin & Security

Level 2

Auto-labeled

Product

Specific offering, module, or major feature set

e.g.:DocumentsMessagingREST API

Level 3

Auto-labeled

Feature

Individual capability or functionality

e.g.:Comments & ThreadsSprint PlanningWebhooks

Level 4

Auto-labeled

Tag

Specific scenario, variation, or fine-grained label

e.g.:PDF Export BrokenSlow Load TimeMissing Filters

How it works

Paste your docs

Feed in product documentation, feature lists, help docs, or release notes. AI extracts a full 4-level hierarchy.

Refine the tree

Review in the Taxonomy Editor. Rename nodes, add missing features, edit AI labeling instructions, drag to reorder.

Auto-label signals

AI labels every incoming signal. Backfill existing data or overwrite previous labels. See signal counts per node.

Taxonomy vs Custom Tags

Use taxonomy for product categorization. Use custom tags for cross-cutting concerns like "urgent", "competitor mention", or "follow-up needed".

Best practices

Start broad, then refine — begin with major product areas and add detail over time

Use your customers' language — name nodes using terms customers actually use

Add descriptions to ambiguous features so AI labels them correctly

Review periodically as your product evolves — add new features, retire old ones

Don't over-categorize — focus on distinctions that matter for analysis

Works with Clusters

Combine taxonomy with AI-generated clusters for the best of both worlds. Structured categorization for known product areas, plus AI discovery of emerging themes.
