    Design A wins on trust. Reviewers called it “more premium” and “clearer at a glance.” Design B’s dog cartoon drew attention, but shoppers didn’t have enough info about the treats.
    Next test: try a variant of Design B that includes treat images or clear ingredient callouts.

Frequently asked questions

What is PickFu?

PickFu is a consumer insights platform that gets you feedback from real people in your target audience — within hours, not weeks. Teams use it to test product concepts, game designs, packaging, listings, and marketing copy, then iterate before spending on a launch.

Who is PickFu for?

Product, creative, and marketing professionals who want to make confident, insight-driven decisions. Some have no dedicated research team; others just want answers quickly without commissioning a full study. It's used most in e-commerce and CPG, gaming and mobile apps, and publishing — but it works anywhere you need real people to react to your ideas.

What are the benefits of using PickFu?

PickFu offers fast, cost-effective, and high-quality consumer insights. Make data-driven business decisions by asking your target audience what they think about your offerings. Optimize your website, product listings, game concepts, book covers, marketing assets, and more with in-depth feedback from real people – starting at just $1 per response.

How does audience targeting in PickFu work?

The PickFu panel is a carefully vetted, built-in audience of millions of verified respondents. When building a survey, you can choose a random audience or reach your target audience by selecting from 100+ traits spanning demographics, interests, and behaviors. You can also target by location – our panel is available in 15 countries. Learn more about the PickFu panel.

Where do your survey respondents come from?

We source from specialized third-party panel providers – the same consumer panels that large CPG brands use for long-form research – so you get professional survey respondents at startup speed.

How much does PickFu cost?

It’s free to sign up for a PickFu account, and surveys start at $1 per response. Survey pricing is based on complexity of your question type and audience targeting, as well as audience sample size. You can also subscribe to PickFu to save money on each survey and access our full feature set.

How long do my results take to come in?

You'll start to get results within minutes. Surveys usually finish that same day, in a few hours or less. The larger and more targeted your audience, the longer it takes to collect all the responses.

How many respondents do I need?

For most surveys, 50 to 75 — enough to see a clear winner and the reasoning behind it without overpaying. Sample sizes run 15, 30, 50, 75, 100, 200, 300, and 500: use 15–30 for a quick gut check, and 200–300 when a high-stakes decision needs statistically stronger evidence. For 1,000+ respondents, contact us about enterprise options.

You don't have to get it right the first time — 'Get more respondents' on any finished survey adds new responses to the same results.
