The problem

Recruitment shouldn't be the hardest part of research

Without Cohort
  • Endless Facebook and Telegram posts with low-quality signups
  • Participants who cancel last minute or never show up
  • Manual spreadsheets for scheduling, reminders, and payouts
  • No clear way to reuse good participants across studies
With Cohort
  • Central place to post studies and collect applications
  • Smart filters to find the right people fast
  • Automated reminders and attendance tracking
  • Built-in payouts and participant history
How it works

From study brief to confirmed payout

A guided workflow with quality checks built in — so you spend your time on insights, not logistics.

Step 01

Post your study

Set up your screener, incentive, and session details with a guided flow built for researchers.

Step 02 Trust gate

We review, then it goes live

Our team checks every brief before it is published. Approved studies go live to matching participants.

Step 03

Your screener filters applicants

Screener answers automatically disqualify people who do not fit, so only relevant applicants reach you.

Step 04

Review applicants and invite

Compare qualified applicants by profile and history, then invite the right people in one click.

Step 05

Schedule and run the session

Participants self-book a slot with automatic reminders. Meet remotely or in person in Tbilisi.

Step 06 Trust gate

Confirm attendance, then pay

Payouts release only after you confirm attendance — so you pay for sessions that actually happened.
