Delvinia introduces Methodify, a new research automation platform designed to address the challenges facing marketers today

TORONTO, Oct. 13, 2015 /CNW/ – Today, Delvinia announced the launch of Methodify, a new research automation platform that enables marketers to gain customer insights in as little as 48 hours.

As brands continue to integrate customer feedback into every step of the marketing process, marketers are searching for new, repeatable methods and channels to access consumer opinions. They need results quickly, and they need a cost-effective means to capture data that is supported by rigorous research methodologies.

To meet this growing demand in the marketplace, Delvinia, a Toronto-based digital innovation company, developed a digital platform that seamlessly connects marketers with proven research methods.

In three easy steps, and from any device, marketers can select a research method, upload their creative, launch a study and see real-time results—with the final insights and data available in as little as 48 hours.

“Marketers are up against a wall. In today’s landscape they have less time, fewer resources, and smaller budgets—but they need to do things faster and better,” said Steve Mast, Delvinia’s President and Chief Innovation Officer. “Methodify allows marketers to test early and often, to bring the customer into the conversation, and to do so by putting some rigour around research process.”

As a result of automating the research process, Methodify’s clients have reported seeing their timelines shrink from four weeks to as little as 48 hours and have been able to reduce their costs by as much as 45 per cent, Mast added.

The Methodify platform provides marketers with direct access to a series of packaged and proprietary methods, all of which combine sample, robust feedback tools and real-time reporting features. New methods are continually being added to the Methodify website at getmethodify.com.  

“The research industry is in a state of change and while some research firms may look at research automation as a threat, it really provides an opportunity to generate new leads and new revenues for their repeatable methods,” Mast said, adding research companies interested in offering their proprietary methods on the platform are invited to contact Methodify to inquire about possible partnerships.

Methodify, born out of Delvinia’s innovation framework, has been in beta with a major Canadian financial institution since April and is now being launched as a standalone business unit within the Delvinia Group of Companies.
