Research studies

50 people use your app. You get the answer, not the footage.

A usability study we run for you. We recruit the audience you describe, brief them, collect 50 narrated screen recordings and write up what they show. One fixed price, paid by invoice.

Per study
$1,490
Recorded sessions
50
Call to readout
2 weeks

That works out at about $30 per recorded session with the analysis done for you.

What you get

Everything between “is this confusing?” and a fix list.

50 narrated screen recordings

Real people on their own phones or laptops, talking through what they are doing. Every session is scored on six dimensions, and low-effort ones are replaced at no cost to you.

An audience you describe

Platform, device, language, age range and country. We check it against the pool before you pay, and if we cannot fill it we say so.

A written report

The problems ranked by how many people hit them, each one with the clips that show it. Written by a person who watched the sessions, not a transcript summary.

A readout call

Thirty minutes with your team to walk through the findings and argue about what to fix first.

NDA and invoice

Every tester accepts your NDA before starting a session. You pay by invoice, by card or bank transfer, after we have agreed the scope.

How a study runs

2 weeks from the first call to the readout.

  1. Day 0

    Scoping call

    What you are testing, who should test it, and what decision the study has to inform.

  2. Days 1 to 2

    Task script

    We write the scenario and questions with you. You approve it before anyone is recruited.

  3. Days 3 to 10

    Sessions

    Recordings arrive as they are done. You can watch them in your dashboard as they come in.

  4. Week 2

    Report and readout

    The written report, then the call.

Where this is the wrong choice

Three things we will not sell you.

Moderated interviews

Sessions are unmoderated. Nobody is on a call with the tester asking follow-up questions. If you need that, a moderated research tool is the right choice.

An always-on research programme

If you want seats for a research team running studies every week, the enterprise platforms are built for that. This is one study with a fixed scope.

Very narrow audiences

Fifty people in one small country, or a specific profession, may be more than our pool holds. We will tell you on the call rather than take the study and deliver half.

Want to try it small first? The self-serve product runs the same sessions from $5.99 per recording, without the report or the call.

Start here

Tell me what you are testing.

I read every one of these myself. If it sounds like a fit, I will send a couple of times for a 30-minute call. If it does not, I will tell you what to use instead.

Can, founder of TestFi

Goes straight to the founder. Nothing is charged until we have agreed the audience on a call.
