Problem

The people easiest to interview are not always the people you need to learn from.

Friendly customers know your product too well. Personal networks overrepresent people like you. Broad research panels may not contain developers with the right role, stack, company context, or buying experience.

Weak recruiting produces polished conversations that never explain the decision you need to influence.

Result

Talk to developers who match the market you want to win.

Use the Built for Devs network to:

  • define the target participant from the account ICP;
  • preview aggregate match counts;
  • recruit developers for a specific research objective;
  • pay only for completed interviews;
  • schedule conversations without exposing the network as a contact list; and
  • optionally record, transcribe, and extract quotes and jobs into the account context.

The interview price applies to completed interviews. No-shows do not count as completed interviews.
Who conducts the interview?
The customer conducts the interview unless the service agreement explicitly includes research delivery by the Built for Devs team.
Can the interview be recorded and transcribed?
Yes. Recording, transcription, and structured extraction can be added when the participant consents.
