Dscout Spent 15 Years Bottling Human Context. Now It Has to Keep AI From Watering It Down.

PlaybookUX
PlaybookUX is an all-in-one user experience research platform that helps product, design and research teams recruit participants, run studies, and analyze results in one place. It combines a vetted panel of millions of testers with a full toolkit of qualitative and quantitative methods - unmoderated and moderated testing, card sorting, tree testing, surveys, first-click and five-second tests, preference testing and session replays - and layers AI on top to transcribe, summarize, tag and report on findings. Founded in 2018 by Lindsey Allard and Kristen Giovanniello and headquartered in New York, the company is bootstrapped and grew to roughly $6.5M in revenue and 300+ customers by 2024.
