The Bad News/Struggle
Social scientists drown in piles of text, interview transcripts, and photos that tell rich stories but resist statistical treatment. Cleaning, labeling, and coding each document by hand can take weeks or months, forcing many promising studies to be abandoned because the data is simply too unwieldy.
The Fix
GABRIEL flips the script. By letting you describe a measurement in plain language—like "how family‑friendly is this job listing?"—the tool runs the same query across thousands of files and returns a clear score for each. This frees you to focus on designing the right question, checking the results, and drawing conclusions, rather than getting stuck in repetitive tagging.
Beyond scoring, GABRIEL offers handy utilities: merging mismatched tables, smart deduplication, passage coding, idea generation for new theories, and automatic de‑identification of personal data. All of this works from a simple Python library that requires only basic coding skills.

Final Verdict
GABRIEL turns a labor‑intensive bottleneck into a fast, repeatable process. If your research relies on textual or visual evidence, this toolkit can expand the scope of what you study without adding endless hours of manual work.
