Asking people direct questions about their needs will lead to functional responses – rarely are people conscious of the emotion driving their needs. NeedScope’s proprietary projective tools let you unlock the emotion of the moment.

There are times when gut reactions are the most powerful insights. Probing for detail may not give us more information, when the answers lie in what is felt and expressed spontaneously.
Spotlight provides sensitive qualitative analysis of gut reactions to stimulus, presented impactfully through video stories. It provides smart and nimble insight based on unmoderated video response, by exploring ‘type1’, gut-feel response to stimulus.
Participants record responses to five well-crafted questions on video, capturing their unmoderated responses. Videos are uploaded to an online environment where they are translated and compiled using the Voxpopme platform and analyzed by Kantar Qualitative experts.
Consumers engage with brands in a reactive, here-and-now way. To create authentic, relevant content that will resonate with your audiences, you need to connect with passionate, savvy and future-oriented consumers.
ThinkTank is a simple, yet powerful online community approach that allows you to get a quick and intelligent point of view from the ground on the burning issues facing your brand.
ThinkTank answers the following questions:
- What does your category mean to leading-edge consumers?
- What are the moments of tension that are ripe for content generation?
- How can you build on real-life moments to create content that will deeply resonate with your target audience?
- How can you refine content based on consumer feedback?
The pace of change has never been greater. Brands need fast, reliable insights about how people are thinking, feeling, behaving and making decisions.

It provides an intimate understanding of behavior and behavioral change, and current and emerging trends, with unprecedented scale and agility. Using qualitative guided conversations in familiar environments like Facebook Messenger and WeChat, people openly share their needs and experiences.
