Synthesize insights in real-time with AI agents

Instead of waiting weeks to manually clean raw text data and build phrase-clustering spreadsheets, Sprig analyzes response data in real time. Whether deployed via email or panel, Sprig’s infrastructure instantly distills open-ended responses into structured, theme-level narratives without sacrificing methodology.

Elevate data privacy with cookieless architecture

Relying on legacy, cookie-dependent web trackers means navigating increasing browser restrictions and enterprise privacy hurdles. Sprig is an enterprise-grade research infrastructure that utilizes local storage instead of browser cookies, backed by full SOC 2 compliance.

Run dynamic, agent-led research instead of legacy passive tracking

Hotjar relies on static, passive on-site widgets that require users to manually trigger feedback or click generic smiley faces. Sprig transforms research with autonomous AI agents. Instead of forcing your team to manually review hours of screen recordings to uncover friction points, Sprig's specialized agents instantly identify optimization solutions without requiring manual cross-referencing.
