Why not an agency

Real consumer research without the agency price tag.

Traditional research is built for big brands with big budgets. We rebuilt it around AI, so you get real people and real rigour at a fraction of the cost, and in a fraction of the time.

Traditional agency

Weeks, and thousands

Cost Thousands of £
Time to results Weeks

Long briefs, big minimums, and a wait that outlasts the decision.

Early Signal

A fraction of the cost, far faster

Cost A fraction of agency prices
Time to results Far faster

Same real UK consumers. A plan in minutes, a verdict far faster than traditional research, and you see what you're paying before you pay.

Real work

Real brands. Real decisions. Before the spend.

Not a demo. These are real UK brands who tested a decision with real consumers before committing budget, across two different kinds of decision.

Kloudy matcha berry-smart can
Ad creative test

Kloudy

UK functional matcha brand

“Which of our three ads should we put the paid budget behind?”

What we did
Showed all three ads to 149 real UK consumers aged 18 to 35, one ad each, and measured what they’d buy and why, in their own words.
The outcome
One creative won clearly. We pinpointed the exact fix holding back each of the other two, so the budget went behind the ad the evidence backed, not a guess.

Positioning test

Annski’s Matcha

UK matcha brand

“Which brand positioning should we lead with?”

What we did
Tested three different positionings with real UK consumers, one each, measuring intent, appeal and what the brand actually communicated.
The outcome
Found the positioning that converts, and flagged an ownable brand asset they were under-using, with a clear path to develop it before spending.
