Various ways of coding
MAXQDA offers many possibilities for coding your data. Simply drag and drop codes from the code system to the highlighted text segment or use highlighters to mark important passages, if you don’t have a name for your category yet. In addition, you can assign symbols and emojis to text and image segments, audio and video clips.

Tools tailor made for coding inductively
Use the in-vivo coding tool to highlight meaningful terms in the texts and automatically add them as codes to your code system or use MAXQDA’s handy paraphrase mode to summarize material in your own words and inductively form new categories. As in Grounded Theory, a segment can also be assigned a new (free) code.
Organize your code system
Organize your code system to up to 10 levels and use colors to directly distinguish categories. If you want to code your data in more than one perspective, document sets are the way to go. Of course, you can always reorganize your code system.
Further ways of coding
MAXQDA offers many more functionalities to facilitate the coding of your data. Search for keywords in your text and let MAXQDA automatically code them or recode coded segments directly from the retrieved segments window. With the unique Smart Coding tool reviewing and customizing your categorization system never has been this easy.
Creative coding
Creative coding effectively supports the creative process of generating, sorting and organizing your codes to create a logical structure for your code system. The graphic surface of MAXMaps is the ideal place to move codes, form meaningful groups and insert parent codes. Of course, MAXQDA automatically transfers changes made in Creative Coding Mode to your Code System.
Analyze coded segments
MAXQDA has numerous tools for analyzing your coded segments. Use summary tables, integrate quantitative methods or data deeply into your analysis, compare groups based on quantitative as well as qualitative findings, or automatically or manually generate stunning visualizations to analyze your data and present your findings.
