Thinkscape®
for Market Research

Qualitative insights at quantitative scale.

Thinkscape makes it possible to conduct deep conversational focus groups with 20 to 250 people in real time. Large-scale deliberative insights are now fast, easy, and affordable.

Your research has been forced to choose between depth and scale.

Focus groups give depth, but only from a handful of people. Surveys can scale, but reduce thinking to checkboxes, capturing the what without the why. Social listening infers beliefs instead of measuring them. Thinkscape does the impossible — deep qualitative conversations at quantitative scale.

How It Works

Scalable Deliberation. Reliable Insights. Faster and Cheaper.

Thinkscape's patented Hyperchat AI™ technology enables large online groups — up to 250 people — to engage in real-time conversational deliberations by text, voice, or video under the guidance of a single human moderator. And unlike traditional focus groups, Thinkscape mitigates social-influence bias, loudmouth bias, moderator bias, and first-talker bias.
