Premium Tools Overview
Overview
ImpactMojo's premium tools are advanced, specialised resources for researchers and practitioners who need capabilities beyond the free platform. They're designed for fieldwork, data analysis, and technical research tasks.
Premium tools require a paid membership (Practitioner or Professional tier). The free platform covers 95% of learning content — premium tools serve specific professional needs.
VaniScribe: AI Transcription
What it does: Transcribes field interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and key informant interviews (KIIs) in 10+ South Asian languages — Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Marathi, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Gujarati, Odia, Punjabi, and more.
Key features:
Speaker diarization (identifies who said what)
Automated timestamping
Export to structured formats for qualitative analysis
Powered by Sarvam AI for South Asian language accuracy
Who it's for: Qualitative researchers doing fieldwork in regional languages. Transcribing a 60-minute Hindi interview manually takes 4–6 hours. VaniScribe reduces this dramatically.
Access: Professional tier — Open VaniScribe
DevData Practice: Dataset Generators
What it does: Generates realistic synthetic datasets for learning and practice. 36 generators produce 840,000+ rows of data modelled on real development survey structures — DHS, NFHS, ASER, MGNREGA, and more.
Dataset categories:
Household surveys and consumption data
RCT experimental data
Health and nutrition indicators
Education and learning outcomes
Agricultural and livelihood data
Gender and GBV indicators
Climate and environmental data
WASH coverage data
Humanitarian response data
IRT psychometric data
Who it's for: Trainers teaching data analysis, students practising statistical methods, and researchers testing analytical approaches before working with real data.
Why synthetic data? Real development data is often sensitive, restricted, or messy in ways that distract from learning. DevData Practice generates clean, realistic datasets so learners can focus on methods, not data cleaning.
Access: Professional tier — Open DevData Practice
Visualization Cookbook
What it does: Provides 14 chart types with production-ready Python code using a question-driven approach. Instead of browsing chart galleries, you select the story your data tells (comparison, distribution, relationship, composition, time series, spatial) and get the right chart with working code.
Who it's for: Practitioners who need to create publication-quality charts for reports and presentations and want ready-to-use code rather than starting from scratch.
Access: Part of DevData Practice — Open Visualization Cookbook
DevEconomics Toolkit
What it does: A collection of 11 interactive Shiny apps covering core development economics methods:
RCT Power Calculator
Calculate sample sizes for randomised controlled trials
DiD Simulator
Visualise difference-in-differences estimation
RDD Explorer
Explore regression discontinuity designs
Synthetic Control Visualiser
Build synthetic control counterfactuals
Gini & Lorenz Curve Tool
Calculate and visualise inequality measures
MPI Explorer
Explore multidimensional poverty indices
Poverty Line Analysis
Analyse poverty headcounts and gaps
Theory of Change Visualiser
Build and visualise ToC diagrams
Cost-Benefit Analysis Tool
Structure and calculate CBA
LogFrame Builder
Construct logical frameworks
WDI Dashboard
Explore World Development Indicators
Who it's for: Development economists, evaluation specialists, and students learning econometric methods. Each app makes a complex method interactive — you adjust parameters and see results in real time.
Access: Professional tier — Open DevEconomics Toolkit

How Educators Can Use Premium Tools
For Training Workshops
Use DevData Practice to generate datasets for hands-on data analysis exercises — no need to source or anonymise real data
Use the DevEconomics Toolkit apps to demonstrate econometric methods interactively — participants adjust parameters and see how results change
Use the Visualization Cookbook to teach chart selection — participants choose the right chart for their data story
For Research Support
VaniScribe saves enormous time on transcription during qualitative fieldwork
Qual Insights provides AI-assisted coding for interview and FGD transcripts
Code Converter Pro helps teams working across statistical packages (common when collaborating across organisations)
For Institutional Use
The Organization tier (₹1,499/user/month) provides team-wide access to all premium tools plus a training dashboard. Contact hello@impactmojo.in for group pricing and sliding scale options.
Tips
Start with the free platform. Premium tools solve specific professional problems — make sure you've explored the free courses, games, labs, and handouts first.
VaniScribe is the highest-impact tool for qualitative researchers working in South Asian languages. If you do fieldwork in Hindi, Tamil, or Bengali, this alone justifies a Professional subscription.
DevData Practice is ideal for trainers. Instead of hunting for suitable practice datasets, generate exactly what you need in seconds.
Sliding scale available for grassroots organisations — contact hello@impactmojo.in.
