User Testing Tools Create More Problems Than They Solve
Development teams need user feedback before launch but existing tools make testing harder than it should be. You have to watch hours of video recordings to extract key insights, feeling guilty about potentially missing important findings if you don't review every single session. Professional testing panels provide feedback from career testers who skew results with expertise your real customers don't have, while their limited size makes it hard to find samples matching your target audience. Even seasoned UX researchers spend hours setting up test plans and getting approvals before testing can begin. Your user test data sits isolated from surveys, interviews, and other feedback, preventing comprehensive analysis in one location. Meanwhile, clunky screen recorders require outdated software installations that frustrate real customers who abandon sessions before providing valuable input.
TheySaid eliminates user testing friction while amplifying insights.
Rather than struggling with complicated workflows and fragmented feedback, you get user tests that work seamlessly for real customers while automatically revealing key insights. This approach delivers authentic user behavior data while eliminating the complexity that slows down product teams.
TheySaid cuts through the noise.

Before & After
Without TheySaid
Hours of Manual Video Analysis
Extracting key insights from user testing videos requires watching hours of recordings without missing important findings, making teams feel guilty about potentially overlooking critical usability issues buried in lengthy sessions.
Professional Tester Bias
User testing tools rely on small panels of professional testers who skew results with expertise that real customers don't have, making it difficult to find large samples matching actual target audience demographics.
Time-Consuming Test Setup
Even experienced UX researchers spend hours setting up test plans, configuring scenarios, and getting approvals before testing can begin, delaying critical validation when launch timelines are tight.
Fragmented Feedback Repository
User testing data sits isolated in separate dashboards from surveys, interviews, and other feedback, preventing comprehensive analysis and unified insights across all customer touchpoints.
Clunky Screen Recording Software
Traditional tools require installing outdated screen recorders that are hard to use and frequently cause real customers to abandon testing sessions before providing valuable feedback.

FAQ’s
What types of products can you test before launch using AI user testing?
You can test any web-based product, including Figma prototypes, staging environments, beta applications, and live websites. The platform records user interactions with any URL you provide for comprehensive usability validation.
How does screen recording work during user testing sessions?
Users grant permission for screen recording when starting their session. The platform captures their screen activity and voice commentary as they navigate through your product, creating complete documentation of their testing experience. In some cases, users may need to install a browser extension when the host website blocks third parties from sharing their site via TheySaid's interface.
What's the difference between AI user testing and traditional usability testing?
The key difference is that AI acts as a moderator during the user test, guiding users through the testing process, answering questions, and probing deeply about what users are thinking and why they make specific decisions. This enables scalable testing with conversational depth that traditionally requires human facilitators.
How many users should test your product before launch?
Most teams identify critical usability issues after 15-20 testing sessions. AI user testing enables you to gather feedback from 30+ users within days rather than weeks, providing comprehensive validation before launch.
Can you test specific user flows or features before launch?
Yes, you create testing scenarios focused on critical user journeys like onboarding, key feature adoption, or checkout processes. Users navigate through designated task flows while their interactions are recorded.
How quickly do you receive usability insights from user testing sessions?
Initial insights appear as sessions complete, with video recordings immediately available for review. Comprehensive pattern analysis across multiple sessions is available within hours rather than weeks.
What happens if user testing reveals critical usability problems close to launch?
Video recordings with timestamps allow development teams to quickly identify and prioritize fixes. The visual documentation helps developers understand exactly where users struggle and implement targeted solutions.
How do you recruit participants for pre-launch user testing?
Through multiple distribution methods, including email outreach to beta user lists, website pop-ups for existing users, social media sharing, and panel recruitment for reaching specific user demographics.
Do you guarantee actionable usability insights from pre-launch testing?
Yes. If our AI user testing platform doesn't reveal critical usability issues, task completion problems, and improvement opportunities, you pay nothing.
TheySaid recommends questions, delivers via your existing channels, engages your audience, and summarizes results through AI surveys and interviews.
