Know how they'll react before you launch.

Sway tests your idea on a simulated crowd of customers. Each one has a budget, habits, and opinions, and they talk to each other. You get a report on who's in, who pushes back, and why.

Sway rehearses how people are likely to react. It doesn't guarantee results, predict sales, or replace real customer research. The percentages are a direction, not a forecast. We’ll always be straight with you about what the findings can — and can’t — tell you.

No payment now. We'll confirm the scope before we run anything.

06 · Questions

A little more clarity.

Good questions. Straight answers.

Are these real people?

No. These are AI agents with simulated budgets, habits, and opinions. They interact with each other to explore how different audience groups might respond. We never present them as real research participants.

How accurate is it?

Think of Sway as a rehearsal, not a crystal ball. The percentages show direction, not a forecast of sales or real-world behavior. Use the findings alongside your own customer research and judgment.

What do I need to send?

Your idea or creative, the audience you want to reach, any relevant context, and the question you want answered. For a price change, include the current price and what’s changing. We’ll confirm the scope before kickoff.

Is my idea kept private?

Your request is accessible only to authorized Sway admins. We don’t publish your idea or report. Only share information you’re comfortable having analyzed; ask us about any additional confidentiality requirements before kickoff.
