What Research Participants Say
Five-star Google reviews. From the people who sat in the room.
Participant testimonials about what happened during the research tells us a lot about the high quality data that goes into your research reports as inputs. No AI can replace the potency of such human articulated data.
Felt comfortable sharing my honest opinions. The environment made everyone boldly share their views — even things I wouldn't normally say in a group of strangers.
Research Participant · Insurance Study
Safe to Be HonestFelicia has a way of making you forget you're in a research setting. She picked up on something I mentioned in passing and gently steered the whole group into a much more interesting conversation because of it.
Focus Group Participant · Skincare Study
Expert ModerationI'm usually the quiet one in group settings. Here, I was drawn into the conversation naturally. By the end I'd shared more than I expected — and other quiet participants did too.
Focus Group Participant · Healthcare Study
Every Voice HeardVery well-organised from start to finish. Clear instructions beforehand, started on time, comfortable venue, and I was out exactly when they said I would be. Refreshments were a nice touch too.
CLT Participant · QSR Product Testing
Respect for TimeThe discussion went deeper than I expected. Instead of surface-level questions, we actually explored why we feel the way we do about products. Made me think about my own buying habits differently.
Research Participant · Financial Services
Real DepthWe were all strangers but within minutes the conversation was flowing naturally. People disagreed respectfully, built on each other's ideas. It felt more like a proper discussion than a research session.
