Nationwide household recruitment
In-Home Video & Wearable Study Recruitment
Households and human AI contributors for video, everyday activity and wearable-device projects.
The right households for real-world research: in-home video collection, AI training participants and wearable-device studies across the United States.
People for in-home research and AI collection
Everyday routines, household environments and device use can shape a research project. Focus Forward brings its nationwide qualitative recruitment experience to studies that need people in their own homes—not just respondents in a meeting room.
From a video task to a multi-touchpoint device study, start with a clear brief. We work with your team to discuss participant fit, screening, scheduling and the support your project requires.
In-home video collection
Recruit people for first-person/POV recordings of household routines using customer-provided cameras where specified. Your project defines the activities, recording spaces, equipment, task instructions and time commitment.
AI training participants
Recruit real people for research-led video and activity collection intended for AI training. Your brief defines the tasks, eligibility and permitted use of recordings; recruitment focuses on the people and households that fit.
Wearable-device studies
Find participants whose routines and device eligibility match your study. Discuss wear schedules, activity requirements, follow-up touchpoints and any product fulfillment needs with our team.
Nationwide household recruitment
Reach households across the United States for in-home research. Specify geographic coverage, household composition, relevant products and routines so screening reflects the needs of your study.
Build a clear recruitment brief
Share the practical details early so participants understand what they are being asked to do and your team can assess feasibility.
- Participant criteria, household characteristics and geographic quotas
- Activities, recording spaces and equipment or device requirements
- Study duration, scheduled sessions and follow-up commitments
- Consent requirements, recording permissions and intended data use
- Incentive terms, product shipping and return requirements, where applicable
Participant recruitment, not a promise of a finished AI dataset
Recruiting participants and preparing training data are distinct parts of a project. Your team defines the collection protocol, consent and data specifications. Discuss recruitment and any additional research support with us before fieldwork begins; dataset annotation or model development is not implied.
For speech, field collection and other participant needs, explore AI Contributor Recruitment. For finished datasets or AI-specific collection, transcription, annotation and rating, visit C8C.ai, our dedicated AI data division for foundation-model training.
