We've made it easy

No hassles.

No need to format your concepts or provide elaborate background information. No scheduling hassles. And no calculating and distributing rewards. We do it all so you can focus on your research.

AI Analysis makes insights easy too: feedback is automatically summarized, organized and grouped into themes so you can jump in and take over.

Actionable Insights

For the researchers: explore your audience preferences and validate your concept ideas ASAP. Combine methods to get the most robust, representative insights, while leaving no stone unturned.

We’re all about mixed methods here. Qual and Quants are meant to be used together to get the full picture, from broad market patterns and player preferences to in-depth look into player routines, motivations and shenanigans.
