Partner Panels

Partner Panels are a way to expand your research reach beyond Dscout’s Scout Panel, your Private Panels, or other participants you may invite on your own. With Partner Panels, you can recruit directly from Dscout’s trusted third-party partners like Respondent, letting you find participants for even the most niche research needs. Want to hear from people who live in specific parts of the world? How about individuals who work in ultra-specific industries? Thanks to Partner Panels, you can.

Note: Partner Panels currently support recruitment through Respondent. However, Dscout plans to support additional platforms in the future.

Recruitment methods

Recruiting from Partner Panels is easy—and you never have to leave Dscout to do it. You can recruit participants from Partner Panels in two ways:

  • Recruit using a screener: Build a screener with targeting attributes and screener questions. Once launched, your screener is made available to participants on our Partner Panels. You can then review their responses right in Dscout and add those who qualify to your missions. For more information, see Recruit from partner panels using a screener.

  • Auto-recruit (usability tests and media surveys only): Add targeting attributes and screener questions to your mission. Once launched, the screener portion of your mission is made available to participants on our Partner Panels. Those who qualify are then automatically directed to Dscout to complete the rest of your mission. For more information, see Auto-recruit from partner panels.

Whichever option you choose, you’ll always be able to tell when a participant came from Partner Panels by looking for the Partner Panels badge during analysis:
