Participants who represent your audience

Reach consumers and professionals across geographies, demographics, technographics and professions.

50,000+

Participants in the pool

  • A woman checks a profile through a magnifying glass, holding a shield with a tick01

    Screened, rated and real.

    Every participant confirms their email and passes your screener before you see them, so you talk to the people you asked for.

    Screened
  • A man checks his watch next to a stopwatch and a banknote02

    Fast feedback, fair pay.

    Paying fairly and treating people ethically gets you honest, accurate data within hours.

    Data in hours
  • A woman gives two thumbs up beside a four-star review, a tick and a crossed-out bot03

    Data quality you can rely on.

    We monitor the pool continuously and remove people who keep giving low-quality responses.

How it works

From sign-up to your first session

Four steps from sign-up to your first session. Each one is shown in more detail below.

  1. A researcher types on a laptop next to her profile card

    Create your profile

    Tell us about you, your team and the kind of research you run.

    About 2 minutes
  2. A researcher ticks off a checklist between participants, a chart and a cedi budget

    Create a study

    Describe it in a sentence and we draft it for you, or build it step by step. Set a budget per participant.

    About 5 minutes with AI
  3. A researcher looks through a magnifying glass at three people: two ticked, one crossed out

    Screen participants

    Add target demographics and a screener. Only people who match can apply, and you approve who joins.

    First matches in hours
  4. A researcher in headphones gives a thumbs up to a participant on a video call

    Run the session

    Talk in our built-in call, or send a task test they do on their own. Attendance and pay settle themselves.

    Recording ready after

New · AI drafting

Describe your study. We draft the rest.

Type or say what you want to learn in a sentence. We ask a few questions, then draft the details, who to recruit and the screener. You check every step before anything goes live.

  • Type it or say it

    Speak your brief if typing is slow. We turn it into text you can edit.

  • Better screeners

    We flag questions that push people to say yes, and suggest a fairer one.

  • You stay in charge

    AI never sets your availability or your payment. Nothing goes live until you check it.

After every session

From the call to the insight, in one place

No Zoom links to send and no recordings to chase. Calls happen here, and everything you learn stays with the study.

  • Built-in video calls

    Participants join from a link on their phone or laptop. No app to install.

  • Recorded and transcribed

    Every call is recorded and transcribed for you, with timestamps you can jump to.

  • Highlights and reels

    Mark the moments that matter, then share a highlight reel with your team.

  • Themes across sessions

    Group highlights into themes, so patterns show up across every interview.

Coming soon · AI interviewer

Let an AI interviewer run your sessions

Write your questions once. Our AI interviewer talks with each participant by voice, asks follow-up questions, and hands you the recording, transcript and highlights. We’re building it now.

  • Talks, listens, follows up

    It asks your questions in a natural voice and digs deeper when an answer is short.

  • Any time, no scheduling

    Participants take part when it suits them, even at night. No calendars to match.

  • Always clear it’s AI

    Participants agree to an AI interview before it starts, and you review every session.

Fair by design

Rules that are fair to both sides

We handle attendance, pay and no-shows the same way every time, so you never have to chase anyone.

  • Attendance settles itself

    We see who joined and for how long. There is nothing to mark after the call.

  • Fair when plans change

    If you miss a session, the participant still gets the full reward. If they don’t show, you pay nothing.

  • Task tests priced per step

    GHS 10 a task and GHS 5 a question. You see the full cost before you publish.

  • A pool that stays reliable

    People who walk away from studies are paused, so your spots go to people who finish.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find your answer? Contact support and a person on our team will help.

How do I create a research project on myUsersInsight?

Sign up, tell us about your organisation, then create a project. Inside it, add a study: what it is, who you want to talk to, and when you are free.

How does myUsersInsight help me find research participants?

Your study is shown to people in our pool who match your target audience. They answer your screener, and you choose who to invite.

Can I customise recruitment criteria for my studies?

Yes. Set demographics such as age, location and education, then add screener questions and decide which answers qualify.

Can I manage several research projects at once?

Yes. Each project keeps its own studies, applicants, sessions and recordings, so you can run them side by side.

How long does it usually take to recruit participants?

Most studies get their first matching applicants within hours of going live. Niche audiences can take a few days.

How does myUsersInsight make sure participants are high quality?

Every participant confirms their email and answers your screener. You rate each session afterwards, and people who miss sessions or abandon tests are paused from new studies.

Does the AI write my study for me?

It drafts it. Describe what you want to learn, answer a few questions, and it fills in the details, who to recruit and the screener. You check and edit every step, and you set the availability and payment yourself.
