The Future of Quant is Qual

Measure + Engage + Enable + Explore

inca is the world’s most sophisticated conversational research platform for qual-infused quant surveys and highly personalized qual-at-scale studies.

It delivers robust KPIs, higher-quality data, and deeper human insights through conversations guided by researchers, supported by AI.

A Conversational Research Platform Built to Measure, Engage, Enable, and Explore

  • Measure

    Measure

    Measure what matters without losing the human touch. Collect reliable, statistically sound data at scale using various quant question types, weighting, and analysis, while conversational design captures the context and meaning that traditional surveys often miss. Advanced logic enables highly sophisticated surveys and personalized AI-moderated conversations.

  • Engage

    Engage

    Create research experiences people want to respond to. Design intuitive, human-like conversations that keep participants engaged, reduce fatigue, and encourage more thoughtful and complete responses.

  • Enable

    Enable

    Enable research participants to think more deeply and tell us the ‘why’ as well as the ‘what’ with inca’s specialty question types. Generate deeper human stories and emotional understanding of how people feel using inca’s projective techniques.

  • Explore

    Explore

    Uncover deeper insights with inca's award-winning SmartProbe. Collaborate with AI to design conversations that build empathy with participants, leading to richer understanding of decisions, motivations, and behavioral drivers.
