Consumer Intelligence Platform
AI-moderated qualitative research at scale. Quantitative studies. Social listening. Mixed-methods research in 90+ markets — all synthesised in one living system.
Insights at the
speed of right
Most platforms were built to move fast. Bolt Insight was built to get it right. Created by researchers who’ve spent years designing studies and pushing to make insights drive real decisions, we brought that experience into an AI research platform that turns real consumer understanding into your unfair advantage.
Trusted by leading global brands
Why Bolt?We've sat on your side of the table.
We've spent years commissioning qualitative and quantitative research, presenting to skeptical boards and watching great insights get dismissed before they reach the people who need them.
So when we built Bolt Insight, we built what we wished we'd had. An AI-powered market research platform that makes the people behind insights impossible to ignore backed by 85+ researchers who've been exactly where you are.
For me, the biggest selling point was really Qual at Scale.
How we do it?Deep expertise meets compounding intelligence
Three forces working together: research practitioners who know what good looks like, a platform where every insight builds on the last, and AI that makes you sharper — not lazier.
Research expertise that's been on both sides
Our team has led qualitative and quantitative research functions at brands like Unilever, Danone and Ipsos. We don’t just run market research studies. We know what decisions they need to drive. Every project is designed around the outcome it needs to deliver.
Intelligence that compounds, not resets
Every study feeds the next. Cross-pollinate consumer insights across categories, resurface past findings in new contexts and build a living intelligence layer that gets smarter with every conversation. No more one-off research projects that vanish into a folder.
AI that challenges, not just executes
Our specialist AI agents don’t just say yes. They push back on research design, surface blind spots and explain their reasoning. You become a better researcher with every interaction. Bolt Insight’s platform upskills you, by design.
What we offerOne platform. Full-spectrum intelligence.
Qual, quant, social listening, and AI agents — all in one place. No more stitching together tools, agencies, and data sources. Research insights compound because they live together.
Expert Research Team
Former brand-side leaders and agency veterans who co-design your research, interpret the nuance, and translate data into decisions that move the P&L.
Specialist Agent Ecosystem
Purpose-built AI agents that gather, augment, and activate insight — from research design to moderation to synthesis. Each one trained to think like a researcher.
...and participants love it, too.
Participants speak freely when it feels natural. No survey fatigue, no awkward slots — just real thoughts, in their own time. That means richer insights, less bias, and higher completion rates.
Capabilities
Qual at Scale
AI-moderated depth interviews conducted across global markets and languages, with human-level probing that uncovers the real motivations behind consumer behaviour.
Quant Research
Survey design, fielding and analysis built into the same consumer intelligence layer, so qualitative and quantitative methods work together rather than in silos.
Always-on Listening
Continuous trend surfacing across markets so your team catches behavioural shifts before your competitors do.
Compounded Synthesis
Talk directly to your research data. Resurface past findings, connect insights across categories and studies, and build understanding that gets smarter over time.
From scattered research to strategic influence
Great research deserves better than a deck that gets ignored. Bolt Insight closes the gap between consumer insight and business action, repositioning your team as the strategic function it should always have been.
The ShiftBefore Bolt
Research takes too long
Manual processes that can't keep pace with the speed of decisions.
Insights stuck in silos
Knowledge trapped in old decks, lost between agencies and platforms.
Insight teams pushed to the periphery
Treated as a support function rather than a driver of business strategy.
After Bolt
Consciously rapid delivery
Speed without sacrificing quality. Decision-ready insight in hours, not weeks.
Living intelligence layer
Every qual and quant study compounds. Resurface, recontextualize and connect findings at will.
Insight professionals made indispensable
Bolt Insight frees your team to focus on strategic influence and real business impact
