Vol. 01 · Spring 2026The research issue
Research,
redefined.
One platform. Two products. Built by a market researcher tired of tools designed by people who’ve never fielded a survey or weighted a brand wave.
The survey platform Qualtrics should have been.
A WYSIWYG builder, AI-parsed Word drafts, and analytics that don’t require a PhD. Built for the researcher who’d rather field a survey than fight one.

§ 01Built by a researcher.
Beacon was built by a market researcher tired of tools that feel like they were built by people who never fielded a survey.
§ 02Modern by default.
Every tool in this category looks like it was designed in 2010. Beacon is designed for 2026 and beyond.
§ 03Depth without clunk.
Advanced analytics that rival R and Python. Zero clunk, no PhD, no spreadsheet glue.
