Quality insights at Toluna

Our comprehensive set of quality protocols, also known as Toluna QSphere, embodies our holistic approach to data quality. We combine state-of-the-art fraud detection, research best practices, and advanced technology to provide our clients with end-to-end trust in our data and processes. Make decisions with confidence knowing that our dedicated team of experts ensures the quality of your insights every step of the way.

The power of quality: cutting-edge technology, a proprietary panel, and deep research expertise

At Toluna, quality is at the heart of everything we do, because reliable insights start with trustworthy data. We take a proactive, multi-layered approach to ensure the integrity of your research at every stage.

Authentic, transparent respondents:

Our proprietary global panel provides unparalleled transparency into respondent authenticity. With continuous engagement, we maintain a highly responsive and engaged audience and ensure that you get real opinions from real people.

Expert-led, methodologically
sound research:

Our global research specialists don’t just support ad hoc projects; they power the methodological foundation of all our standardized solutions. We ensure that you receive rigorous, reliable results, whatever your research needs.

Built by researchers, for researchers:

From AI-powered fraud detection and automated quality checks to research-enriching features like QProbe and SmartCloud, we build technology with researchers in mind. Plus, our tools are continuously tested and improved, so you can trust the data behind your insights.

Measurable impact, proven results

Our commitment to quality speaks for itself: In recent months, we’ve increased pre-survey rejections for quality reasons by 40% (Q4 ‘23 vs Q4 ‘24). That means less time spent cleaning data and more time uncovering insights that drive action.

High-Quality Respondents
Unlocking authentic engagement and representation

We leverage real-time device, behavior, and identity checks to ensure our respondents are not only authentic but genuinely motivated beyond mere incentives. Low-scoring respondents are automatically flagged and restricted by our algorithms, ensuring the delivery of accurate, insightful, and representative data from engaged respondents.
