Choose the right kind of evidence
Use structured surveys for comparable evidence, human experts for specialized judgment, and agent assistance only within explicit approval boundaries.
Compare research modes
Availability follows the least mature capability required by the workflow.
Self-serve survey research
Run structured surveys and supported quantitative methods with comparable responses and visible sample bases.
The team still owns study design, recruiting, interpretation, and the final decision.
- Known questions
- Comparable evidence
- Pricing and prioritization
Human expert input
Request specialist review or a human expert consultation through a governed private-beta workflow.
Gotopico can record the request and proposed time. It does not currently place, record, or transcribe the call.
- Specialist context
- Assumption review
- Market and operating judgment
Human-moderated interviews
Structure a brief and guide for sessions run by your researcher or an agreed service partner.
Native interview scheduling, calling, recording, transcription, and coding are not available.
- Ambiguous problems
- Adaptive probing
- High-value qualitative context
Agent-assisted research
Use bounded assistance for drafting a brief, checking a study, and preparing material for human approval.
The agent does not autonomously recruit, interview, call, publish findings, or make decisions.
- Drafting
- Consistency checks
- Human-reviewed preparation
Agent-led interviews
A future, evaluation-gated mode for disclosed and bounded automated probing.
Agent-led interview execution is not available. Consent, safety, provenance, evaluation, and human review must ship first.
- Future design-partner requirements
- Evaluation planning
- Control design
Research-mode guides
Each guide names the interviewer, respondent, current capabilities, limitations, bad fits, and governance gates.
Human expert interviews
Request qualified specialist input through a governed private-beta workflow, with expert judgment kept distinct from market evidence.
Read the guideHuman expert panels
Assemble a working set of specialists, inspect coverage and feasibility, then use human-led surveys or consultations to explore agreement and disagreement.
Read the guideAI-moderated human interviews
A planned, disclosure-first mode in which a bounded AI moderator would ask approved questions of consenting human respondents.
Read the guideHybrid human and agent research
A design-partner workflow for combining structured survey signals, bounded agent assistance, and deliberate human or expert escalation.
Read the guideSynthetic perspectives
A planned simulation aid for rehearsing hypotheses and finding missing questions—not a substitute for evidence from real people.
Read the guideWhat makes expert input usable
Fit before outreach
Define the exact expertise, decision, exclusions, and conflicts before choosing a profile.
Consent and conflicts
Confirm identity, commercial conflicts, confidentiality, recording policy, and attribution choice.
Evidence, not authority
Keep source, assertion, caveat, confidence, and reviewer approval together in the final handoff.
Preview the expertise model
These are illustrative profiles, not real experts or customer proof.
Scope a human expert workflow
Share the decision, required expertise, timeline, and controls. We will confirm what the private beta can support.
