How to analyze sentiment of HubSpot CSAT Survey Comments with generative AI
As a company, understanding customer satisfaction is critical in improving customer experience and retention. HubSpot's customer satisfaction (CSAT) survey provides valuable feedback from customers, but analyzing the comments can be time-consuming and subjective. In this post, we'll show you how to use generative AI to automatically analyze sentiment in HubSpot CSAT survey comments.
What is Sentiment Analysis?
Sentiment analysis is a natural language processing (NLP) technique that involves using machine learning algorithms to automatically identify and extract the emotions or opinions expressed in a given piece of text.
The algorithms are trained on a labeled dataset of text samples, where each sample is labeled with its corresponding sentiment (positive, negative, or neutral). The model learns to recognize patterns and features in the text that are associated with different emotions, and uses these patterns to predict the sentiment of new, unseen text.
Sentiment analysis has many applications, such as customer feedback analysis, social media monitoring, and market research. It's a powerful tool for organizations that want to understand how people feel about their products or services, or to track public opinion on different issues. It can help automate tasks and extract valuable insights from large amounts of text data.

Accessing your Data and confirming your sentiment scale
You first need to identify the data that you want to work with. Here, we are looking at HubSpot CSAT survey comments. You can export this data in CSV format from HubSpot's reporting dashboard or query the data from your data warehouse or BI tool.
Next, you need to confirm the sentiment scale you will use for assessing customer sentiment. Typically - sentiment is measured on a scale of -1 (most negative) to 1 (most positive). You also may assign sentiment ratings.
Here is an example of a sentiment rating scale:
- Very Positive
- Positive
- Neutral
- Negative
- Very Negative
Once you have your data and sentiment scale, you can use generative AI to automatically assess the sentiment of your HubSpot CSAT survey comments. This will help you improve the quality and consistency of your customer support. This can help you both reduce churn and improve the efficiency of your support team.
