Customer intelligence platform that transcribes, tags and summarises interviews, usability sessions, surveys and feedback, with AI Chat on Free and Agents and Digital Twins on Enterprise. It analyses evidence you bring; it does not recruit participants or run tests.
Great Question
Research platform for interviews, surveys, and unmoderated tests on Figma prototypes or live apps, with a list of your participants, a pay-as-you-go panel, and a connection for coding assistants (MCP). You can buy a seat without a sales call, at $129 a month, and there is no free plan.
Lyssna
Self-serve UX research platform (formerly UsabilityHub) for unmoderated tests, surveys and interviews, with a pay-per-minute participant panel open to every plan, including Free.
Maze
Self-serve user research platform for unmoderated prototype and usability tests, surveys, card sorts and interviews, with a pay-per-response participant panel and an Enterprise-only AI moderator.
Sprig
Enterprise survey platform with AI agents that design, field and synthesise studies, plus in-product surveys you can drop into AI-built prototypes. Sales-led pricing and enterprise-only panels make it a poor fit for a solo builder.
