Research

Go beyond support tickets — validate hypotheses, run Simulations, and interview real customers.

Research tools let you go proactive: test a hypothesis against your existing evidence, run a Simulation with AI personas, or run structured interviews with real customers — each suited to a different kind of question.

ToolUse it when…Speed
TestsYou already have conversation data and want to check a specific belief against itSeconds to a minute
SimulationsYou want a fast, directional read from a simulated audience before committing to real researchMinutes
InterviewsYou need real qualitative depth from actual customers or prospectsHours to days, depending on response rate

A natural order: validate what you already suspect with a Test, sanity-check a new idea with a Simulation, then go deep with real customers via an Interview once you know what to ask.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a Test, a Simulation, and an Interview?
A Test checks a hypothesis against conversation data you already have, answering in seconds to a minute. A Simulation runs your questions against an AI-generated audience for a fast, directional read in minutes. An Interview is a live voice conversation with real customers, taking hours to days but giving genuine qualitative depth.
Which research tool should I start with?
Follow the natural order: validate what you already suspect with a Test, sanity-check a new idea with a Simulation, then go deep with real customers via an Interview once you know what to ask.
Do I need existing conversation data to run a Test?
Yes. A Test checks your hypothesis against findings Synthight has already extracted from your conversations, so it only works if that evidence exists already.
Are Simulation respondents real people?
No — Simulations use AI-generated personas, either fully synthetic, based on real customers, or a mix of both, to give you a fast directional read rather than real human responses.
