Frequently Asked Questions

We use multi-signal verification: LinkedIn profile checks, professional role confirmation, and behavioral screening. We track response quality, time spent, and consistency — and reject 60%+ of applicants who don't meet our early adopter criteria. Low-effort respondents are flagged and removed.

Early adopters in the wild ARE people predisposed to try new things — our panel matches this mindset by design. The critical difference: panelists are paid to vote, but NOT paid to opt-in. When someone shares their email saying "contact me about this," that's voluntary intent, not an incentivized action.

Application screening with professional profile verification, response quality tracking (time spent, feedback depth, consistency), automatic flagging of suspicious patterns, and regular audits. Most importantly: you can't earn more by opting in, so there's no incentive to game the system.

No. Every response comes from a real, verified human — not AI-generated text. We verify panelists through LinkedIn profile checks, industry role confirmation, and behavioral screening, rejecting 60%+ of applicants. AI is used only after humans respond, to analyze patterns across responses and generate summary reports. The feedback itself is always 100% human.

You get a full response breakdown with vote counts, written explanations from every respondent explaining their choice, an AI-generated pattern summary highlighting key themes, and optional contact details from respondents who chose to share their interest.

Most polls receive their full response count within 4 hours. You'll get email notifications as responses come in, plus an AI-generated analysis report when your poll completes.

Headlines, landing pages, pricing, product names, logos, taglines, feature ideas, concept validation — anything you need early adopter feedback on before investing time and money building it.

Yes. After voting, respondents can optionally share their email if they want to hear more. This is entirely voluntary — they get paid the same whether they share or not. When someone does, it signals genuine interest, not an incentivized action.

Yes. TractionWay offers curated respondent segments like Early Adopters, Startup Decision-Makers, and Practical Buyers. Each segment is grouped by professional role, company context, and behavior — so you get feedback from the people most relevant to what you're testing.

Panelists get paid the same whether they share their email or not — there's zero incentive to fake interest. Traditional surveys ask "would you buy this?" and people lie. TractionWay asks "do you want us to contact you?" — real interest reveals itself through action, not words.

No. Your submission is shown completely anonymously — no name, no company, no email attached. Respondents are verified professionals with no connection to your industry and no incentive to compete.

No. You retain 100% ownership of everything you submit. Our content license is strictly limited to displaying your test to panelists and delivering results. We never use your ideas commercially, share them with third parties, or sell your data.
