Great products start with the user

Software products that improve people’s lives don’t come from a bunch of designers sitting in a room talking amongst themselves. They come from getting out and talking to the people who will use those products. Actual people – the users – on a regular basis. That’s what we do. And it’s why we need you.

We regularly conduct research studies to learn about people and how they use the software products we’re designing. We focus on building purpose-driven products–it’s even in our name!–and your thoughts and contributions are such an important part of the process. Our studies vary based on the project goals and needs, but we conduct most research remotely. That means you’d be taking a survey, dialing into a web conference to talk to us, or logging activities via a message board.

What’s in it for you?
Glimpses of new software products designed for Christian users, direct input into how they work, and opportunities to earn gift cards.

FAQs

Who can sign up?
For this research panel, we need our brothers and sisters in Christ. We work mostly with engaged Christians in the “Gen Z” demographic – folks from 14 to 22 years old – but we need people in church leadership positions as well (youth pastors, small group leaders, etc.).

Are you going to spam me with a bunch of marketing emails?
No! When you sign up here you are exclusively opting in for our research panel. The only times you’ll hear from us is when we have a study we’d like you to participate in (including links to complete short surveys) or if we are updating something specific to our research panel.

What do I need to do to get ready?
Because most of our studies are remote, you’ll need a computer and/or mobile device (depending on the study), internet connection, phone, and a quiet environment. We’ll let you know the specifics of what you need when we send you a study invite.

I’m a student. Will you work around my school schedule?
Absolutely! We know you’re a busy student. Prior to the study, we will provide you with several time slots you can pick from that fit your schedule.

Will you pay me?
Each study varies and we’ll let you know if there is compensation and what it is up front before you agree to participate in a study.

How long do these studies take?
The most common type of study is quick usability tests. We’ll ask you to give us feedback on prototypes or websites via online screensharing. These are fast and will typically take less than 30 minutes. Sometimes we send out surveys, which are also short (5-10 minutes). Once in awhile there is a need for longer studies, but we’ll let you know those details at the time of the invite.
