SYMAR (formerly OpinioAI) lets insights, marketing, and product teams run surveys, focus groups, and one-on-one interviews with AI-built respondent personas instead of live panels. You define segments by demographics, psychographics, and buying behavior, then deploy studies through a web workspace at app.symar.ai. Results arrive in hours rather than the two to six weeks typical panel studies need.

Where traditional research vendors sell access to real people, SYMAR simulates them. Personas carry synthetic memory, so they recall prior exposures and support longitudinal studies. Focus groups run with an AI moderator that asks follow-ups and manages group dynamics. The vendor positions this for early validation and iteration, not as a wholesale replacement for human panels on final, high-stakes decisions.

Product marketers, UX researchers, and strategy teams use it to test messaging, creative assets, and concept appeal before committing panel budgets. C+R Research, Belkin, and Kentico appear in published customer stories on symar.ai. Pricing starts at $119 per month on the Project tier with a 400-credit monthly cap.
