"I had the pleasure to work with Stewart on several projects. These collaborations definitely enriched me! Stewart is keen to share his broad knowledge on the research field and brings a deep expertise, giving great guidance and advice while always listening carefully and understanding the need.

Testing Accelerated Answers opened the range of possibilities allowing us to work faster, using less resources while involving a larger sample. The results were surprisingly good, very qualitative.

I think it might revolutionize the way we approach research."

Blending the efficiency gains of AI with the best of established practice

Making important market decisions made without high-quality audience insight and supporting data is not strategic decision-making, it is guesswork.

With traditional methods, tackling complex, nuanced, technical or sensitive subjects can be expensive and time-consuming. Traditional research methods can be slow, cumbersome and inefficient. In consequence, commercial pressures may lead to senior decision-makers relying on subjective opinion or obtuse secondary data sources. 

This is why, I set about building my own AI-assisted research platform with the great skills of developer, Simon Fletcher (Spacestream). Why?

To blend all the best things humans do in research with the extraordinary things AI is capable of
