Yes, Respondent like User Interviews specializes in connecting researchers to participants. With respondent.io, companies can recruit, schedule, and incentivize consumer and professional participants.
While both offer the ability to recruit, schedule, and incentivize participants, User Interviews offers a more extensive panel and more transparency on participants, fraud screening, and panel quality.
Additionally, only User Interviews offers a 100% proprietary panel (never sourced from third parties) and a research CRM that allows you to manage your own panel of users.
We do the work of building a high-quality, trustworthy panel so researchers always have a fresh pool of candidates for their studies. Our panel is 100% proprietary. We never buy audiences or source participants from third party panels. Our monthly panel growth rate is around 5%.
Word-of-mouth and social channels make up 79% of our panel acquisition. This category includes social media, influencer networks, and referrals from existing participants and researchers.
Alongside our broad recruitment efforts, we actively invest in smaller and niche markets through sponsorships, social outreach, targeted advertising, influencer campaigns, and industry-specific blogs and publications. We prioritize recruitment of niche markets based on researcher demand—meaning, if you need them, we’ll try to find them.
