PocketsFull is the survey app we built and run, so the people who answer your survey are members we recruited ourselves. They fill in a profile, pass a short check before each survey opens, and are paid for every survey they complete.
Surveys for you
Before this survey opens
Did you buy cold brew coffee in the past month?
If your answers do not fit, the survey stays closed.
Why it matters
A lot of online sample is passed from one supplier to the next before it reaches a survey. By then it is hard to say how a respondent was found or what they were promised. We run PocketsFull end to end: we bring members into the app, profile them, send them surveys and pay them. If a study needs more people than our own panel can supply, we tell you before fieldwork starts.
Passed along
By the time a respondent arrives, it is hard to say how they were found or what they were promised.

The member journey
Every step happens in our own app, so we can tell you how each member came to the panel.

Profile survey
Members fill in a profile survey about themselves, which helps us match them to studies they can actually take.
Did you buy cold brew in the past month?
When a member taps a survey, the app first asks that survey's qualifying questions. If the answers do not fit, the survey does not open, so fewer people who cannot qualify reach your screener.
"Tell us about the last time you bought cold brew."
AI follow-up: what made you pick that one?
Up to 3 follow-up questionsMembers take your survey on their phone, including video and audio questions if your study has them.
A finished survey pays into the member's wallet. A screen-out or a full quota earns a small reward for trying. Drop-outs and quality fails earn nothing.
What you get
Every respondent is a PocketsFull member who joined through our app or website, so we can tell you how they came to the panel.
The in-app check keeps members who do not fit away from your survey link, so your own screener does less of the work.
Members are paid for completes, not for clicks. Quality fails earn nothing, and an hourly limit on survey starts slows down anyone who tries to rush through surveys.
If you build your study in CatalyseAI, you can send it to the panel from the audience step and set your quotas there.
Video used to mean a recruiter, a calendar and a dozen people. In CatalyseAI, video and audio questions sit inside the survey: answers are transcribed, and an AI interviewer can ask up to three follow-up questions.
Ask us about inviting members from an earlier study to a follow-up study.
The gate
Follow one survey about an oat drink, from 1,000 taps in the app to the completes we pay for.
Members see surveys in the PocketsFull app, matched to the profile survey they filled in.
Before the survey opens, the app asks its qualifying questions. If the answers do not fit, the survey does not open.
Do you drink plant-based milk?
FraudCheck looks up each arrival in a CatalyseAI survey: repeat entries, people outside your country, VPN or proxy traffic.
Each stop is written down with its reason.
Rushing, straight-lining, gibberish and off-topic answers are flagged with a reason, and video is checked while it records.
Off topic: the answer is not about the question.
A finished survey pays the survey's reward into the member's wallet. Anyone screened out or over quota gets a small reward for trying.
Paid by outcome
Members are paid for completes, not for clicks. Quality fails earn nothing, and an hourly limit on survey starts slows down anyone who tries to rush through surveys.
The reward for trying is paid once per survey start, while that setting is on.
Example
A US coffee brand wants 300 adults aged 25 to 54 who bought cold brew in the past month. We check feasibility on PocketsFull and agree age and gender quotas with the brand. When members tap the survey, the app asks the cold brew question first, so most non-buyers never see the survey link. The brand adds one video question: "Tell us about the last time you bought cold brew." Answers are transcribed and grouped into themes in the report. If the feasibility check shows the audience is too small, we say so before we quote.
Bought cold brew in the past month?
Yes"Tell us about the last time you bought cold brew."

Members are paid into a wallet in the app for each survey they complete. When a survey screens them out or its quota is already full, they get a small reward for trying, while that setting is on. Drop-outs and people removed by security checks get nothing. Members cash out to options such as gift cards and PayPal.
Yes. CatalyseAI is connected to the PocketsFull panel, so a study you build there can be sent to members from the audience step.
It depends on the country and how narrow the audience is. Tell us who you need and how many completes, and we check feasibility before we quote.
Yes. Studies can include video and audio questions. Answers are transcribed and checked for attention, relevance and, on video, lighting. An AI interviewer can ask up to three follow-up questions.
