We are changing the way the world
collects business information and insights
We do this by crowdsourcing data via smart devices from your customers.
Our Clients
We've made it our mission to provide a link from people sitting in a workplace to useful information anywhere in the world. Our Clients are businesses or individuals that need information. Anyone with a credit card can sign up as a client. We're specifically built to partner with businesses, and have made strategic decisions to innovate where it's helpful to you.

What types of information can I collect?
-
Photos
Photos do say 1,000 words but what we like to say is that photos can capture 1,000 pieces of data. We use photos to verify information, capture in store experience and understand product usage.
-
Data
Field Agent uses classic data collection methodologioes while incorporating technology, such as barcode scanning, to ensure quality data for large scale projects.
-
Video
Similar to photos, video allows you to gather data but video also allows you to capture consumer sentiment and quotes in a way that truly tells a story.
-
Opinions
Field Agent can perform surveys and collect opinions from anywhere. We support classic research specific question types such as Likert scale, multiple choice, multiple select, ranking, five-star rating, free form, etc.
-
Audio
Audio is primarily used for gathering opinion data and feedback. We have also seen cases where audio has been effective in capturing large amounts of data which is transcribed on the back-end.
-
Feedback
While similar to opinions, we can obtain feedback differently because we can ask your core customer (based upon demographics) to provide feedback on your product or service at the Point of Influence™.
Quality: How can I trust the data?

Agent Histories

GPS Markers
