Why focus groups are failing your clients.
The methodology hasn't meaningfully changed since the 1950s. Your clients have.
Slow & Costly
Recruiting, scheduling, and facility costs can take 4–6 weeks and tens of thousands of dollars per study.
Small, Biased Samples
8–10 participants in a room can't represent a market. Groupthink and moderator bias skew the read.
Surface-Level Feedback
What people say in a room isn't what they feel. Self-reported data misses the emotional truth that drives decisions.
Everything a focus group promised. Nothing it could deliver.
Insights Intelligence is research at the speed of emotion, built for the way modern agencies field, analyze, and deliver to their clients.
Real-Time Facial Coding
Capture authentic, unfiltered emotional response as customers actually view creative, packaging, or product concepts. No self-reporting, no recall bias.
Scale Beyond the Room
Test with hundreds or thousands of respondents across any geography instead of 8 people in a conference room.
Any Client, Any Vertical
Run concurrent studies across every client account from one platform. CPG, financial services, healthcare, entertainment, and beyond.
Reportable, Defensible Data
Deliver quantified emotional metrics alongside your qualitative narrative. Data your clients can put in a boardroom deck.
