Our Facility

A Flexible, Technology-Integrated Research Setting

We spent years traveling across the country as clients at research venues and used our first-hand experience about what worked – and what didn’t – to build our own dedicated research space. From wrap-around observation and wireless television connections to double-wide hallways and doors for accommodating large products and integrated live-streaming, we’re ready to comprehensively support a wide range of use cases.

Strategically Located to Maximize Accessibility

The Three Rivers have always been one of Pittsburgh’s greatest assets, but they’ve also made us the City of Bridges (and Tunnels). Rather than impose limited parking and heavy traffic on respondents and clients, we chose a suburban location at the confluence of three major interstates: I-79, I-279, and I-76. Clients of our facility and research participants enjoy free and abundant on-site parking as well as easy access to both downtown Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh International Airport.
