Asklayer's answer

Asklayer is built by a team of experts from Japan and was created out of frustration with low response rates associated with traditional surveys. We found that most users hate surveys, however they are willing to answer a few questions.

So we created Asklayer, a micro-survey tool that presents itself as simple questions to the user to reduce friction and increase response rates. Unlike traditional surveys we collect data after every question so even if the user abandons part way, you still get answers and a measure of the drop-off point.

The results of all these efforts is a much better user experience, a greatly increased response rate and a much greater total volume of data collected.

Unbench's answer:

Unbench was born out of a real hiring problem—companies needed skilled tech talent fast, but traditional hiring processes were slow, expensive, and inefficient.

Many businesses struggled to find the right recruiting agencies, negotiate fair terms, and get quality candidates without long hiring cycles. At the same time, many top-tier specialists sat on the bench in outsourcing companies, waiting for their next project.
