Learn more about our audience panel: who they are, where they come from, and how we ensure authentic responses.

Updated over 3 weeks ago

PickFu respondents are verified consumers from 14 countries who provide authentic feedback under strict NDAs. They're sourced from enterprise-grade research panels and quality-checked through a multi-stage AI and human review process to ensure reliable, thoughtful responses.

Every respondent is a real person who has verified their identity and agreed to strict confidentiality standards.

Where are respondents located?

PickFu operates a verified respondent panel across 14 countries, with all respondents answering in their native language:

  • English-speaking: United States, Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, South Africa

  • European languages: France (French), Germany (German), Italy (Italian), Spain (Spanish), Poland (Polish)

  • Americas: Brazil (Portuguese), Mexico (Spanish)

  • Asia-Pacific: Japan (Japanese), Korea (Korean)

Questions are automatically translated into the selected country's native language, respondents provide feedback in their own language, and their responses are automatically translated back into your language.

How does PickFu ensure quality?

All respondents are identity-verified by our trusted panel partners during their signup process, confirming demographic information and account details. We then use a multi-stage quality filtering process that includes a mix of AI and human curation to ensure high-quality responses.

We remove respondents who consistently provide low-quality feedback from the panel. Regular quality assessments ensure we maintain high standards across all 14 supported countries. You (the user) also have the ability to flag individual low-quality responses if you receive them.

Where do PickFu respondents come from?

Our respondents come from trusted enterprise-grade consumer panel partners – the same professional research panels that major companies like Procter & Gamble use for their large-scale consumer research. These established panel providers maintain rigorous quality standards, handle identity verification, and supply verified, high-quality respondents across all 14 countries.

Are respondents human?

Yes. All PickFu respondents are real, verified individuals – not bots, AI, or automated systems. Respondents are incentivized to provide honest opinions based on their genuine preferences, not to guess what the poll creator wants to hear. The panel represents diverse demographics, interests, and backgrounds, ensuring you get varied perspectives on your research questions.

Confidentiality and security

Every respondent must agree to a comprehensive non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before seeing any poll content. The agreement explicitly states: "Keep all information and assets confidential - do NOT record, copy, save, share or discuss these materials anywhere."

This means:

  • Pre-poll agreement: Respondents cannot view poll content until they accept the NDA

  • Strict confidentiality: Recording, copying, saving, or sharing your materials is prohibited

  • Third-party verification: Panel partner companies verify respondent identity and compliance

  • Anonymous research: Respondents never see who is running the poll or the final results

All PickFu respondents agree to a comprehensive NDA protecting your confidential information and research materials.

Targeting, demographics, and diversity

You can target respondents using over 100 traits across multiple categories:

  • Geography: Any of our 14 supported countries

  • Demographics: Age, gender, income, education, parental status, employment

  • Behavioral traits: Shopping habits, interests, hobbies, lifestyle factors

  • Custom combinations: Mix up to 4 targeting criteria per poll

We design our panel to maintain representation across diverse segments:

  • Age groups from 18 to 65+

  • Multiple income levels

  • Various education backgrounds

  • Geographic regions within each country

  • Wide range of interests and lifestyle segments

This balance ensures you can reach specific audiences while getting genuine consumer perspectives.

Frequently asked questions

How do you ensure respondent quality?

We use a multi-stage quality filtering process that includes a mix of AI and human curation. All respondents are identity-verified by our trusted panel partners, and we continuously monitor response quality throughout their participation. We remove low-performing respondents from the panel to maintain high standards.

Which countries are supported?

PickFu supports 14 countries: United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Spain, and United Kingdom. Respondents answer in their native language, and results can be viewed in English or the original language.

Do respondents know who's running the poll?

No, polls are completely anonymous. Respondents see your question and options but never know which company or individual is conducting the research.

Are my materials protected?

Yes. All respondents agree to a comprehensive NDA before viewing any poll content. They are prohibited from recording, copying, saving, sharing, or discussing your materials anywhere.

How can I avoid duplicate respondents?

Respondents within any given poll are unique; however, a single respondent may respond to multiple polls. If you want to ensure unique respondents for a particular poll, make sure to extend your poll by choosing "Get More Respondents" at the top of your poll page, rather than running a new poll. This guarantees you'll get different people than those who already answered.

How do I become a respondent to answer polls?

We are not currently accepting respondents. However, you may enter your email address to be notified should that change.
