Synthetic respondents compared with real consumer feedback in AI market research
Research and insights

Synthetic respondents vs. real consumers: what's the difference, and when should you use each?

Therefore, the best practice is to use synthetic methods for initial exploration and real consumers to make final, consequential business decisions.
