When to choose each
Choose
Outset
if:
You run a UX, product, or cross-functional research team that needs high-volume async interviews quickly; speed and scale at the study level are the primary drivers; your program is project-based rather than continuous; and you need access to the broadest possible participant pool across geographies.
Choose Conveo if:
You run an enterprise consumer insights or CMI function where research needs to compound across studies; you need studies completed in days, not weeks, without sacrificing methodology standards; EU data hosting is a procurement requirement; methodological independence from panel providers matters; you manage research across multiple brands, markets, or structured study types; or you need every study to feed an institutional knowledge layer the whole organization can query.
The key difference
One study is a data point. A research program is a competitive advantage. Outset is built for individual studies run fast. Conveo is built for programs where every study builds into a compounding knowledge base. Without a native cross-study library, Outset insights live in that study. In Conveo, every insight is also tagged to its source video clip so stakeholders verify findings directly. Conveo is video-first by design, EU-hosted for regulated industries, and independent of its panel partners.
"Research across multiple business units, run materially faster while meeting a global insights function's standards."
"Video-first approach is a real differentiating methodological advantage."

Conveo helps us go deep on projects we couldn’t even run otherwise with time and budget constraints.
Real human understanding, without the trade-off.
Fast insight is useless without depth. Deep insight is useless if it slows you down. Conveo goes beyond words, capturing emotion, behavior, and context others miss. The full story, delivered in days.
