B2B research platform for finding LinkedIn-verified professionals for surveys, interviews and AI-moderated studies. Pay as you go; quote-based.

Our take: Emporia targets a real pain in B2B research: fake or unqualified respondents.

Try EmporiaQuote-based; pay as you go, no minimum spend

Emporia Research is a B2B research platform that recruits and verifies business professionals for surveys, interviews, focus groups and AI-moderated interviews. It is built for research agencies, consultancies and B2B teams that need hard-to-reach respondents. Pricing is pay as you go with no annual contract or minimum spend, but rates are only available by quote.

The bottom line

Worth a demo if B2B respondent quality is your main problem; consumer researchers should look elsewhere.

What it really isA platform plus verified panel for recruiting business professionals into research studies.
Our takeEmporia targets a real pain in B2B research: fake or unqualified respondents.
Its LinkedIn checks, 200+ targeting attributes and AI-moderated interviews make it a credible choice for agencies and B2B teams, and pay-as-you-go terms lower the commitment. The lack of public prices makes it hard to compare with User Interviews without a sales call.
Why we rate itIt pairs a DIY research platform with identity-checked B2B respondents and AI-moderated interviews.
The catchNo published prices, and it only covers B2B audiences.

Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Days: book a demo, scope the audience, then launch; Emporia cites feedback within 24 hours of kickoff for startup projects.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Larger programs tend to move to the managed project team, priced by quote.
  3. Walled garden
    Low: you can field surveys in your own programming tool and export interview transcripts, audio and video.
