Companies spend millions building features nobody asked for.

68% of software features are rarely or never used. That's not a typo. Your roadmap is probably full of assumptions disguised as strategy.

"The data says it's fine"

— analytics can tell you what, but never why

Actionable Deliverables

You get a clear report with prioritized recommendations — not a 90-page PDF that lives in a drawer forever.

Questions we get all the time.

How much does a research project cost?

It depends on scope, but most engagements range from $8K-$40K. We always scope transparently upfront — no surprise invoices. Think of it this way: one good research study costs less than one bad feature.

How long does a typical study take?

Most projects run 3-6 weeks from kickoff to final deliverable, based on it's scope.

We already have analytics. Why do we need research?

Analytics tell you WHAT users do. Research tells you WHY. You need both. Analytics says "50% of users drop off at checkout." Research tells you it's because the shipping calculator is confusing. Big difference.

Can you recruit participants for us?

Absolutely. We handle end-to-end recruitment — screening, scheduling, incentives, no-show management. We find the right people so you get the right insights.

Do you work with startups or just big companies?

Both! We can work with 5-person startups and Fortune 500s. Research is valuable at every stage — arguably MORE valuable when you're small and every decision counts.

What makes Ondara Studio different?

We don't just hand you a report and disappear. We partner with your team, make research fun and accessible, and ensure insights actually make it into your product decisions. Plus, we're genuinely fun to work with.
