Participant Pool for Interviews: Recruit Participants for User Interviews

Moderated user interviews help teams understand what people think, need, expect, and experience.

But before the conversation can happen, teams need participants.

That is why Useberry’s Participant Pool is now available for Interviews. Teams can now recruit quality participants for moderated user research directly inside Useberry, powered by Respondent.

This means you can move from participant recruitment to scheduling, live interviews, recordings, transcripts, highlights, and findings in one connected workflow.

What’s new?

Useberry Interviews now lets teams recruit participants for moderated studies through our Participant Pool.

With this update, teams can:

• Recruit quality participants for moderated user interviews

• Access B2B and B2C audiences

• Use screeners to qualify participants

• Schedule live interview sessions

• Message participants when needed

• Review and accept participant participation

• Complete sessions and incentivize participants

• Run interviews inside Useberry

• Keep recordings, transcripts, notes, highlights, and findings connected

Powered by Respondent, the pool gives teams access to 4M+ verified participants across 150+ countries, including consumer and professional audiences.

For teams running moderated research, this means participant recruitment can now sit closer to the place where the interviews actually happen.

Recruit participants directly inside your interview workflow

Participant recruitment often happens outside the research workflow.

Teams may recruit in one tool, screen in another, schedule somewhere else, and then bring everything back into their research platform afterward.

Useberry helps reduce that disconnect by bringing recruitment into the Interviews experience.

Now, teams can recruit participants directly through Useberry, screen them for the study, schedule live sessions, and continue into the same Interviews workflow where conversations and findings already live.

That means fewer handoffs, fewer scattered steps, and a smoother path from participant search to live session.

Built for moderated user interviews

Useberry’s Participant Pool for Interviews is designed for live, moderated research.

Use it when you need participants for:

• Product discovery interviews

• B2B user interviews

• Customer research

• Concept validation

• Messaging and positioning research

• Market research

• Follow-up interviews after unmoderated studies

• Moderated usability testing

Whether you are speaking with consumers, professionals, customers, prospects, or niche audiences, the goal is the same: recruit quality participants and bring them into live conversations with less friction.

For broader recruitment options across Useberry, including moderated and unmoderated research, teams can also explore the Participant Pool page.

A transparent review flow for researchers and participants

Participant recruitment does not end when someone books a session.

Researchers need to review participants, confirm whether a session should move forward, communicate with participants, or decide what happens after the interview.

Useberry supports a transparent, researcher and participant-friendly review flow. Teams can accept participants, disqualify participants when appropriate, mark sessions as complete, and pay participants, all from the study dashboard.

This gives researchers:

• More control
  Decide which sessions stay in the study and which do not.

• Human connection
  Message participants in context, professionally and fairly.

• Streamlined workflows
  Manage review actions, participant communication, session status, and completion from the same dashboard.

• Fairness and transparency
  Keep actions visible to participants, so the process feels clearer and more respectful on both sides.

For moderated research, this matters. Every session involves time, coordination, and people. A clear review flow helps teams manage that process without turning participant recruitment into a black box.
