What it is for
Use Minds to:
- test concepts, messages, positioning, packaging, or campaign ideas;
- build an audience from a plain-language population brief;
- compare reactions between segments;
- surface objections and disagreement before committing budget;
- screen research hypotheses before representative fieldwork;
- export findings into a research or decision workflow.
Minds grounds a population in external evidence before generating synthetic respondents. Studies remain available server-side, so a long-running study can continue after the chat session that started it.
The operating sequence
- Define the audience. Describe the market, buyer group, or stakeholder set.
- Ground the population. Minds researches statistics and relevant evidence.
- Create the panel. Turn the decision or research goal into a study.
- Run the questions. Ask one question or execute a structured study plan.
- Inspect and export. Compare segments, inspect disagreement, and download results.
