Bring Your Own Survey Tool

Works with the survey software you already use

Most researchers already have Qualtrics, Sawtooth, Decipher, or QuestionPro licenses. Panel Pilot doesn't force you to rebuild. Paste your external survey URL, and we'll auto-append unique participant IDs so you can match responses back to your panel.

The Problem

Your IHUT process is held together with duct tape

📋

Spreadsheet Chaos

300 participants across 5 tabs. Copy-pasting emails. Manual status updates. One wrong row and someone gets double-shipped.

🔌

Disconnected Tools

Qualtrics for surveys, Mailchimp for emails, Google Drive for tracking, Slack for updates. Nothing talks to anything.

⏱️

Manual Everything

Each study costs 40+ hours of PM overhead. You're a research scientist spending half your time on logistics.

The Platform

One system for your entire IHUT workflow

Feature 01

Study Management

Create studies in minutes with 5 pre-built templates — blind test, competitive, diary, and more. Define categories, sample sizes, shipping, and incentives. Duplicate any study to reuse your setup.

Feature 02

Survey Builder + Skip Logic NEW

7 question types including photo and video upload. Add conditional skip logic — branch to different questions based on answers, or terminate early. Or skip our builder and use your own survey tool.

Feature 03

Participant Funnel

16 lifecycle stages — from invitation to incentive payout. Bulk-select participants to change status, send emails, or remove in one click. Real-time funnel visualization shows exactly where your study stands.
