Terac is the expert marketplace for research companies. We do not run studies ourselves; we provide the verified human supply that other research teams, products, and AI agents call on to get their work done.
Our panel covers experts across every industry and life context, from doctors and engineers to founders, operators, parents, and hobbyists. Each one is onboarded through AI-led recruitment and conversational screening, and every profile deepens with each screener response, interview transcript, and platform interaction. That accumulated context lets researchers describe niche audiences in natural language and match them in days, not weeks, without leaning on rigid demographic checkboxes.
Quality and authenticity are foundational. All experts undergo identity and social profile verification, including a three-way location match across government ID, social presence, and IP address to prevent fraud. Terac continuously evaluates experts across studies, flagging inconsistencies over time rather than treating each session in isolation. During interviews, video, audio, and transcripts are monitored to ensure experts remain engaged, appropriate, and research-ready.
Research companies plug into Terac through three surfaces: a dashboard for in-house research and ops teams, a REST API for products that need to source humans inside their own workflows, and an MCP for agents that need to call on people on demand. Define the audience, set screening rules and incentives, and Terac recruits, screens, schedules, moderates, and pays out only on verified completion.
Whether you are a market research agency running 1:1 interviews, a UXR team running usability tests, a product team validating concepts, or a frontier AI lab sourcing domain experts for evaluation and post-training, Terac gives you direct programmatic access to vetted human capability. The result: faster recruitment, deeper expert understanding, and higher-quality data, without the fraud, no-shows, and re-screening that traditional panels accept as the cost of doing business.
