Ballpark

What Ballpark is
Ballpark is a research platform for consumer, brand, and product studies using surveys, interviews, video, voice, visuals, and tasks. Surveys support open and closed questions, multiple choice, and rating scales. Website tests can begin with a link and task without plugins or JavaScript snippets, while a Figma integration tracks prototype clicks, goal conversions, and user paths. Its AI interviewer runs interviews simultaneously, adapts during conversations, and asks follow-up questions. AI can create reports from responses, and Coach analyzes workspace data and helps set up studies. Ballpark says users can reach over 3 million participants and receive answers within 60 minutes. Customers may bring their own participants at no additional cost or buy recruitment credits; recruitment is priced on request. A 14-day trial provides unlimited users, unlimited responses, and full access without a credit card, but participant recruitment costs separately. Security listings include EU hosting, GDPR compliance, SAML SSO, SOC 2 Type II, encryption, and permissions.
Who it suits
It is aimed at product managers, user researchers, design and brand teams, insight teams, marketers, and agencies running moderated or unmoderated studies. Teams needing prototype, website, mobile-app, or participant-recruitment research can use its listed formats.
