HCD and Aigora Partner for In-Moment Consumer Research

In the US, marketing and consumer research firm HCD Research has partnered with artificial intelligence and sensory research agency Aigora, to launch a tool designed to help clients understand the relationship between consumers and brands.

Through the partnership, HCD will employ Aigora's 'smart-speaker surveys' technique, which uses AI-based speakers to conduct in-context, in-moment research examining consumer behavior / responses while individuals are using products in their own homes. HCD says users can uncover innovative opportunities for consumer products.

VP of Research & Innovation, Michelle Niedziela (pictured), comments: 'We focus on advanced, non-traditional tools from neuroscience and psychology to uncover difficult to assess consumer insights. Using smart-speakers to get at consumer behavior and habits from the comfort of their own homes will allow for better understanding of drivers of consumer decisions and unique insights for innovation'.
