Pricing

Transparent, inclusive, and competitive pricing tailored to you

We know it is almost impossible to estimate how many tasks or video uploads you might need before a project starts. That is why we charge one all-inclusive fee for the platform and work closely with you to find the most cost-effective options for any additional services.

One all-inclusive fee

Platform access is a single fee that covers everything: all task types, all tools, all accounts. No per-feature charges, no usage caps, no surprises.

Services priced on your brief

Research support, recruitment, moderation, and reporting are costed case by case, based on location, languages, participant numbers, and time required.

Flexible to your commitment

Pay per project, run a trial, build an ongoing community, or take a yearly subscription. We size the model around what works for your team and timeline.

Platform access

Platform hire: one fee, everything included

When you hire the incling platform, you pay one fee. That gives you unlimited access to every tool, feature, and type of support listed here, for the duration of your research.

No estimating minutes, tasks, or seats up front. No restrictions on accounts, uploads, or task types. Full access from day one, at a cost that fits your project.

Share your brief and we will pull together a clear menu of options so you can pick and choose what suits you best.

Share your spec and we handle all aspects of recruitment: sourcing local agencies, drafting the screener, managing profile reviews, and arranging replacements quickly if anyone drops out.

Onboarding

Setting up profiles, creating segments, configuring onboarding screeners, sending invites, and working with your recruiter to ensure all participants are signed up before the first task goes live.

Daily checks on your community and tasks, completion tracking, participant reminders, and incentive administration if you want to hand over the admin and focus on the research.
