The openingWhy this idea is overlooked

Qualitative research is slow and expensive because a skilled human moderator has to run every interview and focus group in real time. An AI moderator that conducts voice-to-voice interviews and can simulate segment-level answers turns that into an always-available, scalable capability. It is early and the fidelity of AI-led interviews is still being proven, but the timeline and cost compression is real, and the category is wide open.
