Decision.

It all starts with what you need to decide: which options are on the table, what's at stake, what success would look like and when you need it by. That shapes the study's objectives, who to ask and what to ask them.

Audiences.

You choose who you want to ask: category, region, age and socioeconomic level. Meduzia builds thousands of synthetic profiles with that mix, each with its own story, habits, desires and hesitations, and groups them into segments. They aren't real people or anyone's twin.

Questions.

You build the study with every question you need, each in its own format: pick one option, check several, rank, rate in a matrix, answer in their own words or imagine a scenario. You add images and conditions, and choose which segments get each question. We never ask them about price.

Report.

Everything ends up in a report to share with your team: the question, who it was asked to, how they answered and why. Always with the note that these are synthetic profiles, as the ICC/ESOMAR Code requires.

This whole process, with your brand.

We'll reach out, build your synthetic audience and run your first simulation.
