PanelPilot

PanelPilot is a web app (with optional mobile participant link) for UX researchers who waste too much time on recruiting logistics, scheduling, and consent paperwork. It helps teams spin up a “micro-panel” of repeat participants segmented by product area, plan sessions, and keep everything compliant. Participants join via a lightweight link, complete a short screener, sign consent, and pick a time slot; researchers get an auto-generated session kit with discussion guide, reminders, and a structured note template. An AI layer can summarize transcripts and tag insights, but the core value is operational: fewer no-shows, fewer spreadsheet errors, and a clean audit trail for consent and incentives. Realistically, this won’t beat full-suite research platforms on breadth; it wins by being simpler, cheaper, and focused on repeatable interview operations for small-to-mid teams.
