Enterprise FAQs

Which User Interviews plan is right for my team?

Our plans and pricing are transparent with no hidden costs. You can find flexible research plans for any team. If you’re not sure which plan is right for you, book a 15-minute intro call with our research sales consultants. They'll be able to help you decide!

Which research methods does User Interviews support?

User Interviews supports mixed methods research! We’re the most open platform for research recruitment. With our growing suite of integrations, we’re compatible with any testing tool or research method. Learn more about how User Interviews can help you recruit for 1:1 interviews and moderated research, usability tests, and surveys.

Unlike “all-in-one” tools that offer limited methods for research, with User Interviews, you can recruit participants for studies that use your method of choice.

How can I ensure I get quality insights from User Interviews?

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. 

We have the most established and reliable panel with a 98% positive feedback rate and .6% fraud rate. We’ve recruited for over 1 million research sessions, paid out over $48M in incentives, and have the most advanced matching algorithm and fraud detection on the market. Learn more about our research panel.

How do I know if User Interviews can source my target audience?

Today, we have 6 million participants in our database, representing a diverse group of people. We are confident that we can recruit for most studies, even the niche ones! 

The best way to check the feasibility of your recruit is to launch a project. It only takes about 5 minutes, and you only pay once sessions are complete (no money upfront!) so it’s the best and easiest way to gauge feasibility. 

Our median time to your first qualified participant is under an hour, meaning you could get a real sense of our ability to recruit for your specific persona within a day. If you’re looking for a more general overview of User Interviews’ participants, download our Research Panel Report for key participant stats, data on our most-requested segments, and more information about how we source and vet high-quality participants.

Does User Interviews offer a free trial?

Recruit allows you to sign up and launch a project for free. You’ll only pay for completed sessions. We also offer pay-as-you-go plans for those running one-off projects. If your team does ongoing research, our subscription plans provide volume discounts.
