Purpose-built for qualitative research.

From recruiting and moderating through to synthesis — keep full control of your sessions while Lookback handles the note-taking, follow-ups, and admin that slow you down.

Moderator Control Room
Moderator Control Room

Everything you need mid-session.
Nothing your participant can see

Follow your discussion guide privately, chat with observers, take notes, and push links and prototypes straight to the participant's device — all from one distraction-free space that never bleeds into the participant experience.

Instant clipping
INSTANT clipping

Capture the insight without ever losing the moment

Use the AI toolbar to instantly clip a moment with full context, or hit Quote to capture your participant's exact words. Either way, you stay focused on the person in front of you, not your keyboard.

AI-Moderated Tasks that dig deeper
Unmoderated, in depth

AI-Moderated Tasks that dig deeper

Scale your research without losing qualitative depth. When a participant gives a vague answer in an unmoderated session, Lookback's AI asks the clarifying follow-up you would have asked, in the moment, when it matters.

You get richer data from every session, even the ones you didn't attend.

Your research, one question away
YOUR RESEARCH SIDEKICK

Your research,
one question away

Pull up Eureka Chat from anywhere and just ask: "Which participants mentioned pricing?" to query a single session or a whole project's worth of evidence. 
Or hand it a plain-language brief and it scaffolds your next study, goals and all.
