Product Overview
What is Minds?
Minds is a market research platform that helps product, marketing, insights, and agency teams simulate feedback from target audiences. Teams create individual personas called Minds, group them into reusable Audiences, and run persistent Studies to explore questions, test concepts, compare segments, and review directional results. Personas can be grounded in supplied materials, links, profiles, research notes, and public context.
