INSIGHT COMMUNITY

More perspectives. More time. More possibilities.

Insight communities combine different qualitative and quantitative activities in a protected research space. Over a few days, several weeks or longer, participants can document, discuss, evaluate, develop ideas and respond to new questions.

This creates a comprehensive view of complex topics - from individual and collective perspectives, structured and open, asynchronous and, where needed, live.
Discuss your community concept

BENEFITS

What makes this method special

Deep dives

Explore a topic, market or segment from multiple perspectives and using different methods.

Digital sounding boards

Continuously involve target groups in innovation, product development or change processes.

Pop-up communities

Answer ad hoc questions during a compact, intensive project phase.

Project communities

Follow developments over several weeks or months and explore them in greater depth iteratively.

Co-creation

Develop, visualise, discuss, evaluate and build on ideas together.

Stakeholder involvement

Clients and internal teams can follow activities and findings as they emerge.

APPLICATIONS

For research questions in real-life contexts.

Suitable for projects seeking to understand specific situations, developments and differences between target groups.

ACTIVITIES

From diaries to idea boards: everything in one research space

  • Everyday documentation through text, photos, audio and video
  • Asynchronous forum discussions and individual dialogues
  • Idea boards, ratings and gallery views
  • Collages, mood boards and projective techniques
  • Surveys, rankings, sorting tasks and quick polls
  • Stimulus feedback on concepts, prototypes or communications
  • Live text chats and video meetings for additional depth

PLATFORM

Community management in one connected environment

KERNWERT Studio brings together participant profiles, segmentation, task planning, messaging, activity monitoring, incentives and results analysis. New topics or tasks can be added during the project and delivered to specific groups.

Project managers, moderators and observers work in the same environment with clearly defined roles. This simplifies coordination, protects sensitive information and keeps the research process transparent.

  • Panel and profile management
  • Scheduling and task paths tailored to target groups
  • Forum, dialogue, idea board and diary modules
  • Direct messages and activity monitoring
  • Project logbook and meeting room for the project team

AI IN COMMUNITIES

Continuously explore complex datasets

The integrated AI helps with editing and moderation, translates contributions, transcribes media and supports both ongoing and final analysis. With Insight Chat, you can explore themes across activities, compare segments and find relevant original contributions.

RESEARCH QUESTIONS

Typical questions for this method.

Innovation

How do needs and reactions develop as a concept is iteratively refined?

Brand and communication

What meanings, situations and expectations shape perceptions of a brand?

Change

What questions, resistance and ideas emerge during a change process?

Understanding segments

How do perspectives, routines and priorities differ between target groups?
