Online
Qualitative
Research

For hard-to-reach, specialized, and geographically remote audiences, we use an online version of our Emotional Response methodology to identify language that shapes perceptions and drives action.

Online Emotional Response

These individual interviews or small group sessions allow us to test a broad set of messages with your target audience to get a word-by-word measurement of their emotional reactions, combined with discussion.

AI-assisted Listening

Online discussions with a large sample of participants via an AI-powered chatroom allow us to delve deeper into participants’ words while measuring preferences and attitudes quantitatively. Quantitative data and open-ended questions are analyzed in real time, delivering insights at scale, instantly.

Virtual Listening

Combine elements of quantitative and qualitative research to measure emotional reactions to messaging and facilitate deep discussion about the “why” behind the “what.”

Mobile Video Mini-Interviews

A short, quick-turn survey that collects video responses to open-ended questions, and returns them in the form of a video reel that brings your target audience and their mindset to life for stakeholders.

Online
Quantitative
Surveys

Using both quantitative and qualitative methods, we stress test a range of words and phrases with your target audiences to uncover the most credible and resonant language and framing with large samples. 

Corpus Analysis

We turn qualitative responses into big data by coding free responses into thematic clusters, uncovering trends and associations.

Implicit Testing

We combine behavioral science with quantitative polling to assess unconscious associations and impressions between words or images.

Emotional Response

We embed online emotional response technology into quant surveys to measure moment-by-moment emotional reactions to language and framing.
