Methodology

  • Large Curated Access Network: Provides access to high-quality and extensive sources for broad reach and representativeness.
  • Quantity of Potential Participants: Access to +27M potential participants across multiple key geographies to enable first-party insights
  • DataForce platform: underpinning the entire RFG ecosystem, DataForce is designed to automatically optimize matching the right people to a client’s project, and maximizing the “best-fit” utilization of each participant.
  • Precise Survey Placement: RFG’s Curated Access Network has high participant awareness on targeted platforms such as Social Media, Reward Communities, Email Panels, Gaming Apps, Loyalty Programs, Publisher Sites, and more.  These participants provide granular-level profile information which enables high fit rates for survey participation and AI Training taskers.
  • Participant Selection: Every human who wishes to participate in a research or AI training activity is profiled, opted-in and accepts Terms & Conditions. Participants are evaluated and screened to client requirements, meaning that only those individuals who fit with the client-defined profile of attributes will be selected for each activity
  • Highly Engaged & Quality Participants:  Highly detailed matching of participants to relevant activities coupled with incentives that align with personal interests creates a positive participant experience.

Your Target Audience Is Our Speciality

RFG’s targeting provides insight into 11 different categories, and near 1000 targetable attributes providing a holistic view of every human participant. Along with the range of categories and attributes we provide, RFG also offers the option for real-time pre-targeting questions to reach any audience, no matter how niche, for the right participant to be matched to the activity – a survey or an AI training task.

In addition, we can build custom targeting on the fly during project set-up.

Let us know exactly who you want to reach, and our team can work with you to optimize fit and matching.

Quality

RFG has built our business, our curated access network and our DataForce platform all with rigorous attention to data quality. We approach quality from a dual front – first anti-fraud and second ensuring the respondent experience is mutually beneficial in providing a positive experience. We continue to invest time and resources into building industry leading quality controls so that you can rest easy knowing the data you receive from RFG respondents is data you can trust.

Potential fraud is prevented using a comprehensive suite of custom-built proprietary and 3rd party quality control mechanisms ensuring that authentic people participate in activities and that clients receive accurate and thoughtful responses. 

  • Digital Fingerprinting
  • SecureGeoIP™
  • Google reCAPTCHA
  • Proxy Server Detection
  • IP Filtering
  • Authentication Via Suspect Online Activity Database
  • Geo-IP Validation
  • IP Blocking of Known Proxy Servers

Continued innovation and attention to quality has resulted in RFG’s AI enabled quality control method, QuIP

 “QuIP”

Definition 1: n. a quick and clever remark

Definition 2: n. a Quality Interception Point, a unique and customizable technique to identify (un)desirable fits for online market research studies and take appropriate action. Entails using the right interception, to apply the right activity, to the right person, at the right time, for the right purpose, to achieve better results.

Demographic + Behavioral Assessment

A hundred years of market research has shown that certain combinations of demographics and behaviours exhibit predictable outcomes. We propose doing so in the treatment of respondents, and will do so in increasingly sophisticated ways over time.

The Real Issue

Without diminishing the impact of fraud in the industry, in RFG’s already-high-quality ecosystem we submit that the key issue is “fit”. Suitability for one thing does not necessarily equal suitability for another. QuIP’s ultimate goal is to facilitate finding the right fits, beyond typical prescreening, for the benefit of all parties.

Our Solution is “Respondent Personas”, possible via QuIP

RFG has always been a company able to provide people for activities. The next logical step in evolution is building personas, which is already done indirectly for some customers. This capability can be elevated to the direct support and maintenance of a persona-based data set for survey/data quality purposes.
