Each question narrows the audience and may bump the hourly cost. We parse for income, role, behavior frequency, medical conditions, ownership, and demographics. Anything we don't recognize still counts as a soft filter.

All incentives paid in USD. Recommendations are heuristic — calibrate with your fill data.
