Voice Interview

Hear what surveys miss

Participants browse your product while an AI voice moderator asks questions, follows up on what they say, and adapts in real time. No scheduling. No observer bias. Just signal.

What Participants See

Your product, full screen. The moderator, in the corner.

Participants browse your actual product URL in an iframe. The AI moderator lives in a small overlay — asking questions, surfacing tasks, and tracking progress without getting in the way.

MODERATOR

You're on the checkout page now. Walk me through what you see and what you'd do next.

PARTICIPANT

Okay so I see my cart, the total looks right... there's a promo code field. Let me try the code from the email. Um, I typed it in but I'm not sure if it worked? The total didn't change.

MODERATOR

You mentioned you're not sure if the code worked. What are you looking for on the page that would tell you it was applied?

Adapted — probed on promo code confusion
PARTICIPANT

I guess a confirmation message? Or the total updating? Right now it just... nothing happened. I'd probably try clicking the apply button again.

MODERATOR

If you weren't in this study, what would you do at this point — would you continue with the purchase or try something else?

Adapted — explored abandonment risk
PARTICIPANT

Honestly? I'd probably go back to the product page and start over. I'd want to make sure the discount is showing before I put in my card info.

The Difference

Same question. Different depth.

Survey

“How easy was the checkout process?”

4.2 / 5

73% said “easy to use.”

Voice

“How easy was the checkout process?”

3 of 5 participants hesitated on the payment step. Two mentioned they couldn't tell if the promo code had been applied. One abandoned checkout and restarted from the product page.

How It Works

Four steps to your first voice study

01

Write an interview guide

Define the topics to cover and what to probe on. Or describe your goals and let the AI generate the guide.

02

Set the moderator scope

Choose how much autonomy the AI has — silent observer, adaptive within a session, or learning across all sessions.

03

Share the link

Participants join from any browser. No app install, no scheduling. They talk while browsing your product.

04

Get transcripts and themes

Every session is transcribed. Key themes are surfaced automatically. Findings are prioritized by frequency.
