57%

of executives say slow decision-making is costing them opportunities.

AI has every team running more decisions across more markets in less time, so the demand for real answers has never been higher.

At the same time, the passive signals teams leaned on for years are degrading: cookies and mobile IDs fragmenting, search moving into private AI conversations, location data regulated into retreat. As inference gets harder, asking real people directly becomes the most durable signal left, but the legacy research model is too slow to supply it.

Many teams still rely on traditional research and knowledge systems, resulting in slow time to insights and inefficient decision-making.

Forrester Consulting, July 2025

The insight cycle is too slow for the speed at which businesses now operate. By the time research is delivered, decisions have already been made.

Zappi Insights Report, 2024

Traditional research cycles are far too slow to keep up with the pace of customer expectations and decision-making today.

Real, not synthetic.

Every study fields on 100% real respondents across 70+ panels, plus conversational SMS and AI voice. Where you need it, Synthetic Twins (AI personas trained on your own real respondents) let you ask follow-up questions long after the field has closed. They extend your real data; they never invent it, and never replace measurement.

BEFORE

  • Only 2 foundational studies a year, which was the data to base their marketing on for the entire year.
  • It took too long to get the insights back & the value was wasted

AFTER

  • Over 24 studies run in the last year, with no increase in budget.
  • Constant flow of insights to deliver to their client base to shape their strategies in real time

The research operation, in one platform.

Comprehensive enough to run the work agencies already sell, simple enough to use while the decision is still open. When research moves that fast, teams stop rationing it: a couple of studies a year becomes dozens, on the same budget.

Move from annual snapshots to continuous measurement and adapt your questions as markets shift.
