Private beta

Human expert panels

Assemble a working set of specialists, inspect coverage and feasibility, then use human-led surveys or consultations to explore agreement and disagreement.

How the research interaction works

Interviewer or facilitator

A human research lead using an approved survey or interview guide

Respondent or source

Several qualified human specialists selected for complementary fit, not just a high aggregate score

Gotopico can save private-beta panels and calculate coverage or feasibility scorecards. It does not run native group calls or a complete Delphi process.

What works now

Save a working panel from directory results
Add and remove experts from authenticated panels

Good fit

• Comparing perspectives across specialties
• Finding coverage gaps before outreach
• Structured specialist surveys with transparent bases

Bad fit

• Treating a convenience panel as representative of a market
• Forcing consensus where disagreement is decision-relevant
• Using panel scores without reviewing individual fit

How your team stays in control

Your team retains responsibility for research quality, privacy, and the final decision.

Documented panel composition and exclusions
Per-expert conflict, consent, and confidentiality review
Minimum bases and attrition shown by round
No consensus claim without method, denominator, and uncertainty

How the workflow works

Step 1
Define the decision
State which decision the specialist input should inform and which claims remain out of scope.
Step 2
Qualify the people
Review relevant experience, identity, conflicts, availability, confidentiality, and consent before outreach.
Step 3
Approve the instrument
A human approves the screener, guide or survey, prohibited topics, attribution, and handling rules.
Step 4
Review the evidence
Separate sourced observations, expert judgment, uncertainty, and the decision owner's final interpretation.
