We understand what your target group thinks, feels and is driven by. Respondents experience advertising, concepts and ideas realistically, answer by voice or text, and an AI moderator asks targeted follow-ups. The result is the psychography of the swarm.

Individual depth · Quantified patterns · Concrete action

Others measure the what. We combine the depth of a personal interview with the sample size of a quantitative study and show what people actually do – and why they act that way.

Our framework

Understanding what your target group thinks, feels and is driven by.

01 · Deep Dive

Understand individually

Respondents experience advertising, concepts or other audiovisual stimuli realistically and tell their story by voice or text. An AI moderator asks targeted follow-ups.

Decode the swarm

Topic AI bundles the answers and makes patterns, differences and the drivers of impact visible.

  • Patterns
  • Target groups
  • Drivers
  • Emotions
03 · Insights

Understand the swarm

From the individual deep dives, holistic and at the same time differentiated insights about the swarm are derived.

  • Recommendations
04 · Fact-based consulting

Develop impact deliberately

The findings are turned into prioritised, targeted recommendations and concrete optimisation measures.

Frequently asked

i2a is insights-based consulting: we don't advise on gut feeling but on real insights. We show how people perceive advertising, brands, products, concepts and customer interactions, where they see strengths and weaknesses and what drives their reactions and decisions. We also make visible how employees and potential employees judge a company as a current or future employer. From these insights we derive concrete measures for marketing, brand, communication, offer, customer experience, employee commitment and employer branding.

i2a addresses decision makers and those responsible in C-level and CMO roles, marketing and insights, corporate strategy, product and pricing management, and HR and people (Chief HR Officer, HR leads) who want to base decisions on a reliable understanding of behaviour, motives and barriers. Also agencies and institutes, and companies of any size bringing new products and innovations to market.

We develop customer-specific AI solutions that turn data, knowledge and processes into usable applications, from intelligent assistant and consulting bots to automated analysis and decision processes.

We start with the concrete business challenge and develop a solution that integrates into existing data, process and system landscapes. What matters is not AI for its own sake but measurable benefit in the work process.

i2a is based in Munich and has its own development team in Cape Town.

Tell us about your campaign or brand, a product or value proposition, a pricing question, your customer experience, customer or employee commitment or another strategic question. We will develop the right insights design from it.
