About Us
TapResearch was founded to help any business access critical market data about their products and services. Born out of frustrations with slow, expensive and hard-to-use research products, our mission is to empower any company to access the critical market insights they need to make better decisions.

Our Audience Network connects tens of millions of people with rewarded surveys in the apps and games they use everyday. Through this network we deliver unprecedented reach, and are quickly becoming the data collection backbone for the research industry.

Hundreds of companies, like Qualtrics, Zynga and comScore rely on our technology to collect consumer opinions across thousands of mobile apps and games from publishers such as MiniClip, SocialPoint, Atari, PeopleFun and many others. By connecting marketers & researchers with everyday mobile users, we are building the next generation of research products.

We're motivated by the size of the opportunity and the impact we make on our customers' organizations. We value transparency and are committed to building an inclusive work environment where everybody grows and succeeds together. Recently named one of Inc.'s Fastest Growing Companies in both 2018 and 2019, we are a fast-moving, profitable company that is still in the early innings.

Additional Information
Similar to Rewarded Video success in games, Rewarded Surveys are a fast growing format in free-to-play monetization. Below are some quotes and case studies from industry leaders.

"Rewarded surveys, provided the user-experience is well-managed, may very well find itself becoming the next big thing." — Pieter Kooyman, Chief Advertising Officer at MiniClip

"TapResearch opened an entirely new source of revenue for Socialpoint that fit perfectly within our rewarded monetization strategy. Our users quickly adopted the new format and there were no negative impacts to our user support and communities. We're excited to grow this partnership" — Sofia Gilyazova, Head of Ad Monetization at Socialpoin t

"Rewarded Surveys fit perfectly into our monetization strategy for Word Chums. Users opt-in at on their own time and enjoy sharing their opinions for the high payouts. TapResearch has become a high yield partner across iOS, Android and our Facebook game." — John Boog-Scott, COO at PeopleFun
