  • "After about 10 interviews, we heard a few key themes pop up again and again. We held a debrief session, designed a few solutions, and made some language and sequencing changes immediately. The detail and clarity of the feedback gave us the confidence we needed to act quickly."

  • “Getting kids to speak freely about things on their own time and in their own language can be a challenge, and that’s why we paired dscout’s mobile ethnographic approach with in-home interviews.”

  • “The way we access our users greatly affects the methods that we use. I’ve worked in places where you could do guerrilla research and you can access people that use your product quickly.”

  • “We've been able to take on 40% more studies. I don't even think I could put into words how much time Private Panels saved us. It's completely changed the game for us.”

  • "We really needed quick and punchy content to engage our team and help them focus. So for us, this meant prioritizing succinct video clips, and other really engaging formats that would hold people's attentions in order to deliver our insights for maximum impact."

  • “I started recruiting partially with dscout. We wanted to test with 12 users. Six non-users of our products and six current users—who we’d already had recruited. We put them in separately and onboarded them with dscout.”

  • “For me, dscout is the best research tool out there for doing app research, or for doing research on users of technology.”

  • “We’d recruited scouts in the path of Hurricane Irma before it made landfall. We were simultaneously watching reports from scouts come in at the same time as we were seeing events unfold on the news.”

  • “We had this observation that the technology was fairly complex and could only be totally understood by kids in the nine-to-ten-year age range. But that was also exactly when kids moved away from toys they played when they were younger. So we got to this conclusion in a week or two about what we called the ‘abandonment chasm,’ which was exactly when you want to be selling them something.”

  • “Mobile ethnography on the dscout platform allowed for tremendous depth of understanding about our users—more than any other project that I’ve worked on. We built relationships with our participants, and got prolonged exposure into their mental models, life situations and emotional journeys.”

  • “We need to be in there, ensuring AI is continuously tweaked to account for potentially negative impacts and human unpredictability. That can only be done if humans are in there, testing and tweaking AI until it works for us. Working together, we can make quicker data-driven decisions and design services that will have positive impacts for humans as well as business.”

  • "Though we had a single learning goal, we still prioritized a mixed methods approach, a survey from research, and product analytics with data science. This enabled us to understand what was happening, by unpacking both behavioral and attitudinal data, the what, and beginning to understand the why. By combining research and data science, we could provide complimentary insights, gain a holistic understanding of the experience, and mitigate blind spots of a single research method."

  • “People really loved it because the consumer videos really brought to life what we thought was the case. It took us out of our heads because it's not us saying these things. We’re hearing the consumer say them.”

  • "Being able to do remote qual, mobile ethnographies, journaling, and robust screeners allows you to learn quickly and make sure that the time you spend with people in-person is as rich and meaningful as possible."

  • "dscout helps non-researchers empathize with our users. The platform enables us to capture the voice of the customer and share their perspectives throughout Lenovo."
