We exist to make B2B data
worthy of the decisions
it informs

CosmosPanel was built by researchers who grew tired of compromising. Too slow. Too opaque. Too unreliable. We built the infrastructure we always wished existed — and opened it to the world.

Our Story

Built by researchers
who knew there was
a better way

CosmosPanel was founded in 2019 by veteran market researchers and data engineers united by one frustration: the B2B research industry was broken at the data layer. Panels were aggregated, not owned. Identity verification was perfunctory. Speed came at the cost of rigour — or vice versa.

We rebuilt from first principles — proprietary identity verification, real-time quality scoring, and a global panel infrastructure designed for the demands of enterprise research.

CosmosPanel research team
When we started CosmosPanel in 2019, the same frustration came up in nearly every conversation with research operations teams: respondent quality was assumed, never actually verified. Survey farms were expanding quietly across Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe, AI-generated completions were beginning to contaminate open-text fields, and most platforms were simply not architected to detect any of it.

Identity match
How we keep fraud below 1%
  • Triple-identity verification — LinkedIn, corporate email, phone number
  • Real-time AI behavioural scoring applied to every single response
  • Survey farm fingerprinting using device cluster and IP pattern analysis
  • Large-model classifiers trained to flag synthetic and AI-assisted answers
  • Human auditors reviewing every flagged submission within 2 hours
  • Longitudinal panel health monitoring to catch slow quality drift over time
"The research industry needed an infrastructure company — one that treats data quality as an engineering problem, not a sampling afterthought. That's what we set out to build, and that's what CosmosPanel is today."

The problems we solve

Three systemic failures in B2B research that every serious researcher knows — and that CosmosPanel was built to fix.

Unverified Identity
Most B2B panels rely on self-reported job titles with no third-party verification. The result is consumer respondents claiming professional credentials — contaminating your data before analysis even begins.
Unpredictable Timelines
Routing studies through aggregated supply networks means no control over fieldwork pace, quality, or completion. Researchers spend weeks chasing completes that were promised in days.
Black-Box Methodology
When a panel won't show you who responded, how they were screened, or what quality checks ran — you can't defend your findings. Enterprise research demands full methodological transparency.

How we guarantee quality
at every stage

Four layers of verification and control — built into the platform infrastructure, not bolted on as an afterthought.

01
Identity Verification
Corporate email domain, LinkedIn profile, and phone number cross-verified for every panelist before they enter the active pool. No exceptions.
02
Behavioural Scoring
Our AI engine assigns a real-time quality score to each response — flagging speeders, straight-liners, inconsistencies, and bot signals before data reaches your dataset.
03
Attention & Trap Logic
Embedded attention checks and trap questions specific to B2B contexts catch respondents who are not genuinely engaging — removed silently, replaced automatically.
04
Guaranteed Replacement
Any complete that fails post-field quality review is replaced at no charge, within 5 business days — committed in your service agreement, not just a verbal promise.

Built by researchers,
led by operators

Our leadership team brings decades of experience from the world's leading research organisations — combined with the engineering mindset to build infrastructure that actually works.

We set out to solve a problem every B2B researcher knows intimately: you spend more time fighting for quality data than you do analysing it. CosmosPanel exists to give that time back — and to make the findings you produce genuinely defensible.

What guides every decision
we make

Research Integrity First
Every product decision passes a single test: "would a rigorous researcher trust this?" We never ship features that trade quality for speed or convenience.
Radical Transparency
You see exactly who responded, how they were verified, and what quality checks ran. No black boxes. Methodological transparency is not a feature — it's a requirement.
Speed Without Shortcuts
Fast fieldwork shouldn't mean compromised quality. Our infrastructure was engineered from day one to deliver both — consistent timelines and consistent quality, simultaneously.
Researcher Partnership
We are researchers ourselves. We build for the people doing the work — not for the PowerPoint. Features solve real problems; our success is measured by whether your study succeeds.
Global Mindset
B2B professionals exist everywhere. We invest in local panel management and in-region compliance — not aggregation or proxy panels — so your international studies are as reliable as your domestic ones.
Enterprise-Grade Security
SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR-compliant infrastructure. Data sovereignty, DPAs, and regional hosting options available for regulated industries. Security is never optional.
