How a Compeers project
actually runs

A defined sequence of five stages, with a senior researcher leading every decision and AI handling the operational work in between.

A researcher leads.
AI executes.

Every project at Compeers has a senior researcher running it from kickoff through delivery. They make the methodology calls, review every output, and own the final deliverable.

AI handles the parts that benefit from speed and scale, like transcription, coding, analysis prep, and report assembly. The judgment calls stay with the researcher, where they belong.

Every study arrives ready to present

The five stages of a project

STAGE 01

Kickoff

You share the business question, prior research, and the decision your team needs to inform. We confirm methodology, sample, and timing before any data is collected.

STAGE 02

Design

We draft the discussion guide or questionnaire and walk you through the logic. You approve the instrument before fielding starts.

STAGE 03

Fieldwork

We handle programming, sample sourcing, fielding, and quality checks. You see progress as data comes in, not just at the end.

STAGE 04

Analysis

AI prepares the data, codes the open ends, and surfaces the patterns. The researcher interprets, validates, and writes the findings.

STAGE 05

Delivery

You get the final report, supporting tables, and a record of the work. We present to your team or stakeholders if you want us in the room.

Where humans decide and where AI executes

What the researcher does

Methodology design, sample plan, instrument review, interpretation of findings, recommendation calls, and any judgment that affects how a finding gets framed.

What AI handles

Survey programming, transcription, thematic coding, statistical processing, chart generation, and report assembly. Operational work that benefits from speed, not judgment.

Faster, more affordable

What you bring versus what we handle

What you bring

The business question, the context your stakeholders care about, and any prior research that should inform the work. Your decisions stay yours.

What we handle

Methodology, design, fielding, analysis, and the final deliverable. Every stage runs through researcher review before it moves forward.

Three ways to work with us

MOST TEAMS START HERE
Qualitative icon

Full-service

We run the entire project. You review at key checkpoints and approve the final deliverable. This is how most teams work with us.

Quantitative icon

Hybrid

Your team owns specific stages while we run the rest, with researcher oversight on the work we do. Useful when you have a strong internal team but limited capacity.

Mixed-method icon

Self-serve

Your team operates the platform with our methodology and support. Best for teams with mature in-house research practices that want speed without giving up control.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before signing on

How is the researcher actually involved?

A senior researcher runs every project from kickoff through delivery. They make methodology calls, review every output, and present findings if you want them in the room.

What does AI mean here, specifically?

AI handles operational work like transcription, coding, statistical processing, and chart generation. Interpretation and recommendations stay with the researcher.

What if we already have a panel and survey platform we like?

We can work with your existing sample provider, panel, or survey platform. We bring our own when you need it, and we do not require you to switch tools.

How do you handle data security?

Compeers is SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified. Data stays yours, and documentation is available on request before any work begins.

Can we start with a single project before committing?

Yes. Most teams start with one study, often something already on their roadmap, and we scope, run, and deliver it end to end before any longer-term conversation.

How to transaction fees work?

MemberStack charges a flat transaction fee of 10% on the Startup plan and 3% on the Pro plan, and 1% on the Scale plan. Stripe charges an additional credit card processing fee that depends on a few different factors. See Stripe's pricing for more details.

What can I protect with MemberStack?

We’re working on a content management system that would make it possible to store anything securely on any website. Although, it’ll be a few months before something like this is ready (01/2019). Until then, MemberStack protects pages and content on those pages using redirects. They can't be "turned off" from a browser, but there are ways to access the HTML of a page if you know what you're looking for, and what you're doing. Therefor, we don't recommend using MemberStack to protect highly sensitive information.

Who should apply for the Startup Plan?

Pre-revenue companies, students, and other folks who can't (yet) afford the $25/mo fee. We've been there, so we're happy to work with you. 

Warning! Not everyone is accepted into our Startup plan.

How do I get the money I earn through MemberStack?

Stripe! A stripe account is required to use MemberStack and receive payouts. Money you earn will be transferred directly into your bank account.

Do you have a free trial?

We sure do! Test MemberStack for as long as you need without entering your credit card. While you're in a free trial you're unable to invite more than 1 client or staff,  connect a stripe account, and allow more than 5 users to sign up for a free membership.

Do you offer discounts for students or nonprofits?

We do not offer any discounts for students or nonprofits at this time. However, We do offer a 10% recurring discount to any websites that include our logo and link on sign up and login pages. You're also welcome to apply to our Startup program if you're unable to afford the $25/mo plan.

Is there someone I can talk to about my project?
