our work.
what we do.
Market research used to be slow, expensive, and built for big brands with deep pockets. We’re changing that.
We built Beyond to give ambitious founders and scale-ups access to the kind of behavioural insights and customer research previously only available to the biggest brands. By combining behavioural science and AI with a lean team of human experts we’re able to deliver top-tier insights, without the big-agency price tag.
Some areas we help our clients…
Positioning & strategy
We believe the best positioning and creative work is always grounded in robust insights.
We use a mix of consumer research and behavioural insights to help you build your assets from a deeper understanding of your customer, their needs, and their context.
Product & packaging
Test new concepts, products, packaging and comms with real customers.
We use a range of evaluation and validation techniques to identify areas for refinement and optimisation, giving you the confidence you need to go to market.
Customer Experience
Create experiences which work with the grain of human behaviour.
We help consumer brands remove friction and pull the right behavioural levers to deliver smooth and differentiated experiences that drive trial and retention.
