Ensure you deliver high-quality data
Working with trustworthy participants is critical to collecting high-quality data and delivering meaningful insights.
AydaTrust helps you to better evaluate how trustworthy your participants are, even before you've invited them to participate in a new study.
This enables you to make informed decisions, which supports delivering high-quality data and insights.
Use a solution that's designed for research
Existing anti-fraud solutions lack sector-wide utility. Some work only in-survey, meaning you can't build a trusted audience before you start. Others are intrusive, placing a heavy burden on participants, and in turn impacting both recruitment and completion rates.
Designed with the needs of participants and researchers in mind, AydaTrust uniquely offers the ability to assess the likelihood of fraud amongst participants before they're invited to a study, in a frictionless, non-intrusive way.
Gain and generate more incremental value with each use
The more AydaTrust is used, the more value it generates - for individual users, and industry-wide.
By aggregating anonymised data across all participants' interactions with Ayda, you get a unique, market-wide view of participant behaviour.
The more participant data that flows through AydaTrust, the more accurate view all users will have of participants’ trustworthiness.
Get added value, without any extra effort
We understand the value of streamlining ResOps tasks - so we've ensured that AydaTrust is completely effortless, for you and for the participants you're working with.
You don't need to ask participants for more data, or feed any new data in yourself. You don't even need to click a button to generate Trust Scores!
AydaTrust gathers data from the ResOps services already in use, and automatically generates and updates Trust Scores in real-time, as new data becomes available.
Ayda Trust FAQs
What is AydaTrust?
AydaTrust is an anti-fraud solution for anyone who pays research participants.
It uses machine learning to analyse behavioural and transaction data in real-time, meaning fraudulent and professional participants can be identified and flagged, enabling users to check and potentially remove people before they're invited to take part in research studies.
What is a Trust Score?
A Trust Score is how AydaTrust communicates the trustworthiness of a participant.
Trust Scores are assigned to individual participants in real-time, based on their payment transaction and behavioural data.
There are 3 Trust Scores: Red, Amber, and Green.
How are Trust Scores communicated?
Participant Trust Scores use a colour-coded traffic light system to indicate trustworthiness:
-
Green indicates an individual with no or very minor discrepancies in their data, indicating a high likelihood that they are not fraudulent or a professional participant.
-
Amber indicates that an individual has some discrepancies in their data, indicating a moderate likelihood that they are a professional or fraudulent participant.
-
Red indicates that an individual has significant discrepancies in their data, indicating a high likelihood that they are a professional or fraudulent participant.
How do I generate Trust Scores?
Trust Scores are automatically generated when you upload participant data to Ayda as part of your regular ResOps tasks. You don't need to do anything that you're not already doing!
