Why Qual Researchers Still Choose Between Depth and Scale, and Why They Don’t Have To

For years, qualitative research has lived with an uncomfortable tension. Teams either invest in deep one-to-one conversations that reveal the nuance behind human decisions, or they turn to high-volume methods that reach more people but flatten the richness of what they learn. Most organizations still treat this as a permanent constraint. You get depth, or you get […]
Rethinking Qual: AI That Listens, Sees, and Probes

In this webinar, we explore the emergence of perceptive AI: technology that not only hears responses, but also sees facial cues, reacts to behavior, and probes like a skilled moderator.
Beyond Prompts: Why Proven Methods Still Matter in the Age of AI

The rise of generative AI has created a wave of excitement and uncertainty in the world of research. With tools like ChatGPT enabling anyone to generate content or analysis with a few keystrokes, the temptation is clear: why follow a research methodology when you can simply ask an AI for answers? But here’s the truth: in enterprise research, proven methods are absolutely […]

The State of Hallucinations in AI-Driven Insights

The rise of large language models (LLMs) is transforming how research teams generate insights. But with that transformation comes a foundational risk: hallucinations – when AI outputs sound accurate but are actually fabricated, misleading, or unverified. This white paper explores: The goal is not to reject AI, but to embed it responsibly. As enterprises move […]
Beyond ChatGPT: Why Research Needs Purpose-Built AI

The rapid rise of general-purpose AI tools like ChatGPT has transformed how businesses explore information, ideate, and communicate. These tools are fast, flexible, and convenient. But for high-stakes, enterprise-grade research? They fall short. When the goal is to inform product launches, guide strategy, or support C-level decision-making, surface-level AI outputs simply aren’t good enough. You […]
Enterprise-Grade Personalization in AI Research

The conversation around AI in research has been dominated by speed. The promise is compelling: move from business question to actionable insight in minutes instead of weeks. But for enterprise research teams, speed alone is not the benchmark for success. Quality, consistency, and strategic alignment matter just as much, and often more. That’s where enterprise-grade […]
