Participating in a study
Q. What exactly will I be doing in these studies?
Timely runs a variety of study types. You may be invited to participate in any of the following studies:
Remote usability study: In these studies, we’ll gather your feedback via a screen-sharing session with a researcher where you may be asked questions or provide feedback about a process or design. You can be almost anywhere in the world, but you’ll need to have a high-speed Internet connection.
Long-form study: These studies require a small amount of activity every day for several days or weeks. Researchers will ask you to respond to questions or take notes based on your experience using a product.
Surveys: For these studies, we’ll simply send you a survey form to fill in. Please note that we don’t typically offer a gift for participating in a survey.
Q. What is the 'Thank you gift'?
This is Timely’s way of providing a gift as a way of saying thanks to people who participate in research studies, to help improve our products and experiences. If your session is eligible for a thank you gift, you should receive it three to five working days after completing your session. Please note that not all study participants will receive a thank you gift.
