A research lab for practitioners, not procurement decks

Many platforms lead with huge panels and demo-led sales. UX Metrics is a self-serve lab for teams who already know who they want to hear from—customers, beta users, students, your list. Share a link, embed surveys in your product, run live website tests on real URLs, and get card sorts, tree tests, and usability methods with analysis you can explain in a meeting.

What we optimize for

Self-serve from day one

Sign up, configure a study, share a link. No mandatory sales call to understand whether the product fits your workflow.

Your participants, your pace

The default path is people you recruit—email, Slack, LMS, or external panels you already use. We are not competing on “million-person panel” billboards.

Information architecture depth

Card sorts and tree tests ship with similarity matrices, paths, agreement, and visuals you can defend—not generic “insights” with no paper trail.

Nine methods, one lab workflow

Surveys, first click, five second, preference, prototype, live site, interviews, and more share the same publish-and-link pattern—plus embeds and live URLs where you need studies on your actual product or site.

Detailed comparisons

Head-to-head pages focus on motion (self-serve vs demo-first), how studies run, and IA rigor—not price quotes. See Pricing for current plans.

Other tools in the space

Teams also evaluate UXtweak, Useberry, and UXArmy alongside Lyssna and Maze. They generally emphasize broad method mixes and (often) integrated panels. UX Metrics stays differentiated on self-serve lab workflow, BYO recruiting as the default, self-serve IA depth, and transparent, inspectable analysis across nine research methods. If you want a written comparison for a specific vendor, email us—we will point you to the closest overlap on our roadmap.
