ROBBIE, IN DETAIL

Learn about customers, without the effort.

From interview to insight — here’s exactly how Robbie works.

01 · Interviews

Asks what matters. Follows up intelligently.

Not a survey. A real conversation. Robbie probes, listens, and steers. Just like a trained researcher would.

02 · Insights

From transcript to insight in minutes.

The outputs you’d expect from a specialist research agency.

See what everyone keeps saying — across every conversation.

Run as many interviews as you want. Robbie finds what they have in common, and what makes each one different.

Built with rigour

Private by design. Secure by default.

The methodology

Built to think, not just to ask.

Robbie’s interviewing technique encodes industry and academic best practice: no leading questions, calibrated follow-ups, and the judgement to know when to probe and when to move on.

best practice

Probes across five lenses per thread: behaviour, emotion, values, the participant’s own words, and causation.
Asks for the specific recent instance, never the generalisation. “Walk me through the last time that happened.”
Doesn’t smooth over contradictions. If something sits oddly with something said earlier, it asks about the tension.

Sensitive data

Robbie won’t collect what it shouldn’t.

Sensitive personal data (also known as Category 9 data under UK GDPR) is off-limits by design. Robbie steers away during the interview, then automatically scans and redacts the transcript afterwards.

Security & engineering

Infrastructure that enterprise teams can rely on.

Robbie is built to the standard a production research tool demands — encrypted at every layer, and engineered with specific defences against the threats an AI interviewer actually faces.

No recordings stored

Participants can speak their answers. Audio is transcribed on the fly and immediately discarded — Robbie never keeps a recording.

Prompt injection blocked

Participant responses are treated as data only — never as instructions to Robbie. Typing hidden commands into an answer field doesn’t affect its behaviour.

When it breaks, it locks

If we come under attack and our controls go down, traffic stops — it doesn’t quietly let everything through.

Attackers can’t sneak in hidden code

Every page has a unique one-time code. The browser needs it before doing anything — so anything else an attacker slips in gets blocked, even if they find a weakness.

Your data, protected

Your data is yours

Your participants’ data belongs to you, not us.

No AI training

We never use your transcripts to train models.

Delete any time

All your briefs, transcripts, and participant data — deleted on request.

The AI models we use never see who your participants are.

Names are anonymised before any transcript reaches an LLM.
