What we do

We find hard-to-reach professionals across the tech market — and run studies with them, properly.

01

Participant recruiting

We source and verify niche audiences — engineers, product managers, designers, data specialists, and power-users of specific products — the people generic panels never reach.

02

Study operations

We handle screening, consent, scheduling, task delivery and payments — so participants have one clear, respectful point of contact.

03

Product & UX research

Usage studies, UX interviews, concept testing and preference tests for teams building tech products.

For participants

How taking part works

Simple, transparent, and paid. Most studies take under an hour of your time.

1

We reach out

We contact you directly, or you apply. We always tell you who we are and what the study is about.

2

Quick screening

A couple of short questions confirm you're a fit. No documents, no pressure.

3

Complete the task

A short, clearly explained task — for example a 20-minute survey, a quick interview, testing a prototype, or installing a study extension. You see exactly what's involved before you agree.

4

Get paid

You're paid a fixed fee once the task is complete. Terms are agreed up front and in writing.

Trust & safety

How NEWHR Research works — and why you can trust it.

Clear terms, fair pay, and full control over your data at every step. Here's exactly how we operate.

Part of an established firm

NEWHR Research is the research division of NEWHR, an established recruiting and research firm working with technology companies. You'll always know exactly who you're dealing with — named contacts and a signed agreement.

You're always in control

Participation is voluntary. You can ask questions, decline, or withdraw at any point — and request that we delete your data.

Your data is protected

We process only what the study needs, under a written NDA and consent, in line with GDPR. Data is retained for a limited period and then deleted.

We pay — that's the point

A fixed fee, agreed before you start and paid when you complete the task.

Client confidentiality is normal

Companies commission competitive and product research without revealing their name up front — this is standard practice in the industry. We'll always be clear about what you're being asked to do.

Selected studies

A sense of the work

Details are anonymised to protect our clients and participants.

What people say

From clients and participants

"They reached an audience our internal panel simply couldn't — verified, active users, not survey farmers. The quality of participants was the difference."
Head of User Research · AI company
"Clear scoping, honest funnel numbers, and they flagged risks instead of over-promising. Rare in a research vendor."
Product Lead · B2B SaaS
"I'm cautious about these things, but everything was explained up front and I was paid exactly as promised. Took about 40 minutes."
Software Engineer · United States
"Well-organised from start to finish — clear instructions, quick replies, and the payment landed exactly when they said. Easily the smoothest study I've taken part in."
Product Manager · United Kingdom

FAQ

Questions people ask us

How can I be sure this is trustworthy?+

You can verify who we are and ask us anything before agreeing to take part. Everything is set out in a clear agreement with a fixed fee, and you have a named contact you can reach at any point.

What does taking part involve?+

It depends on the study — it might be a short survey, an interview, testing a prototype, or installing a study tool. Whatever the task, we explain exactly what's involved and what data it touches before you agree to anything.

How and when do I get paid?+

A fixed fee is agreed in writing before you start, and paid once you complete the task. Payment method and timing are confirmed up front.

What data do you collect, and why?+

Only what a study needs: your contact and payment details — so we can reach you and pay you directly; and the study data itself (for example, product-usage data) — which is what we analyse. We use it only for the study, never for marketing, and we don't sell it or pass it on. After the study and your payment, we delete or anonymise your data; anything we're legally required to keep (such as payment records) is kept only for as long as the law requires.

Who is your client?+

Clients often commission research without disclosing their name — this is standard for competitive and product studies. We'll always be transparent about the task itself, even when the client stays anonymous.

Do I need to be in a specific country?+

Studies have their own criteria — often specific regions, roles, or tools. If you don't fit one study, we may reach out for another.
