The Comparison
Market simulation, not just surveys.
TestSynthiaThe Old Way
Traditional surveys mean recruiting headaches.
The Panel Tax
SurveyMonkey charges for responses or forces you to buy third-party panels. A 500-response survey can cost $500-2,500 in panel fees alone — before you even see results.
The Wait Game
Even with paid panels, you wait days for quotas to fill. Need responses from 'CFOs at mid-market SaaS companies'? That could take weeks or never fill at all.
Analysis Paralysis
SurveyMonkey gives you charts. It doesn't tell you what the data means, which segments matter most, or what actions to take. You're still doing the hard thinking.
