Questions? Answered.

"How is this different from asking ChatGPT?"

ChatGPT makes up personas. PersonaResearch grounds every insight in real quotes from real users — you see exactly which reviews generated each finding.

"What if my market is not on Reddit?"

We also analyze App Store and Google Play reviews. If your users write reviews anywhere, we find them.

"How accurate are the personas?"

Every persona card includes quoted evidence. You see the source for every insight — no black box outputs.

"Why not just read reviews myself?"

We process 400–600 reviews per job. Reading and synthesizing that yourself takes 8–12 hours. We do it in 15 minutes.
