Across UX and product development, teams often juggle the pressure of a fast-paced roadmap with the need to gather and apply meaningful insights.

The product needs to move quickly…but gathering quality insights takes time, and teams need to align to ensure they’re implemented properly. The long-discussed tradeoff between quality and speed. 

At Dscout, we’re challenging the “tradeoff” idea. Teams need quality insights AND they need to move quickly.

We’ve built an AI-powered workflow that supports every phase of research. From collecting rich feedback to building organizational knowledge that compounds over time, this integration helps teams run quality research seamlessly.

To help with that, we partnered with Marvin to help teams dig deeper into their data and store findings long-term to make insights easily accessible across teams.

Research that runs fast and has a lasting impact

Dscout makes it easy to launch studies quickly and get real, in-the-moment insights. Marvin makes it easy to keep those insights organized, searchable, and ready to use—long after the project wraps.

So when you pair the two, you get a seamless research flow that helps you…

Recruit with ease

Dscout has a multitude of recruiting resources, including…

  • Our Scout panel: Dscout vetted and verified research participants.
  • Partner Panels: Access to over 3M additional participants to reach niche or international audiences.
  • BYO and Private Panels: If you already have a group of trusted participants, manage them with ease with our BYO (bring your own) and Private Panels feature.

Run research your way

Set your project up for success with Dscout features, including…

  • Design the right study for your research by mixing and matching methods, including usability tests, diary studies, live interviews, multi-media surveys, and more.
  • Manage participants with ease by automating some of the operations, including incentive payments, consent forms, progress tracking, and more.
  • Collaborate more efficiently with teammates and stakeholders with viewer seats, team workspaces, and more.
  • Write better questions with AI follow-up suggestions.

Go deeper in your analysis 

Start your initial analysis on Dscout…

  • Use powerful tagging features and data visualization (charts, word clouds, etc.), as well as heat maps and “time on task” capabilities.
  • Dscout AI also helps teams with auto-generated transcripts, summaries, and theme generation. 

From there, easily move your data over to Marvin to…

  • Surface cross-study themes and patterns.
  • Annotate transcripts and highlight quotes across projects.
  • Clearly connect quantitative results with qualitative insights to ultimately make a clear case for product improvements/roadmap changes.

Store your data more effectively

Once your data is connected to Marvin, you can…

  • Centralize your research in one searchable hub
  • Resurface findings at moments when your team needs them
  • Easily identify studies you want to explore more and begin designing a follow-up.
