Know what to build, fix, and prioritize next
Always On, Always Listening
Set up a continuous feedback program that recruits real users directly from your site or product and runs short interviews and user tests on the experiences that matter most: onboarding, feature discovery, upgrading, cancellation, and more. TheySaid runs in the background, constantly checking the quality of your critical user flows so you always know what's working and what isn't, without scheduling a single session.
Real Conversations With Real Users. At Scale.
Every product manager knows they should be talking to users more. TheySaid makes it possible without the coordination overhead. AI conducts real conversations with your actual users, asks intelligent follow-up questions, and surfaces what they're thinking, at a scale no research team could match manually. You finally get the user insight you've always wanted, without it becoming another thing on your to-do list.
Research That Moves Faster Than Your Product Development
Traditional research is a bottleneck. By the time insights are ready, the product has moved on. TheySaid delivers feedback fast enough to inform every stage of your development cycle. We never slow you down. With our upcoming Jira integration, we'll be running tests before your engineering team even starts working on the ticket.
Proof That Convinces Stakeholders Without Extra Work
Product opinions are cheap. Evidence is priceless. TheySaid automatically clips key moments from user sessions and builds highlight reels that show real users struggling with specific issues. When you need to justify a roadmap priority or push back on a feature request, the evidence is already there. No research report required.
The Product Metrics That Actually Matter
Feature Adoption Velocity
Track how quickly users discover and successfully use new features after launch, revealing whether your onboarding and UI patterns actually work in practice.
Task Success Rate by User Journey
Measure completion rates across critical workflows to identify which user paths need optimization and which ones are already working well.
Time-to-Value Metric
Quantify how long it takes new users to reach their first success moment, helping you prioritize improvements that accelerate product value delivery.
Feature Request Validation Rate
Track what percentage of requested features actually solve user problems when tested, preventing roadmap bloat from internal opinions instead of user needs.

Keep Your Critical User Flows Working at All Times
Onboarding, feature discovery, upgrading, and cancellation are the flows that determine whether users stay or leave. TheySaid's always-on program monitors these flows continuously, recruiting real users from your product and running short tests so you catch problems before they affect retention, not after.

Test Features Before Engineering Writes a Single Line of Code
With TheySaid's upcoming Jira integration, a user test kicks off automatically when a ticket reaches a specific status. AI reviews the ticket, creates a test plan, recruits users, analyzes sessions, and delivers fix recommendations, all before the engineering team starts building. No action required on your part.

Get Honest Feedback Your Users Won't Give Your Sales Team
Users tell sales what they think you want to hear. They tell AI the truth. TheySaid creates safe, conversational experiences where users share real frustrations, feature gaps, and the things they'd never mention on a customer call. You get the unfiltered perspective that actually drives better product decisions.
Prove ROI on Product Improvements
Product managers constantly justify priorities to executives and engineering. TheySaid gives you before-and-after metrics on task completion, user satisfaction, and friction points. Show leadership the measurable impact of product improvements instead of arguing from intuition.

FAQs
What does "always on, always listening" mean for product managers?
It means TheySaid runs continuously in the background, recruiting real users from your site or product and running short interviews and user tests on your critical flows. You do not need to set up individual studies or schedule sessions. The program monitors onboarding, feature discovery, upgrading, cancellation, and other key experiences automatically, surfacing issues as they emerge rather than after they have already affected your metrics.
How does the Jira integration work?
The Jira integration is coming soon. When it launches, a user test will trigger automatically when a ticket reaches a specific status in your board. TheySaid's AI will review the ticket, create a test plan, recruit participants, run sessions, analyze the results, and deliver fix recommendations, all before the engineering team starts working on the feature. No action required on your part beyond connecting your Jira account.
Can I test with my own users rather than a panel?
Yes, and this is one of the things that makes TheySaid especially valuable for product managers. You can recruit directly from your own site or product through email, website pop-ups, in-app widgets, or direct links. You talk to the users you actually care about, not a panel of professional testers who don't represent your audience.
How fast does TheySaid deliver insights?
Fast enough to keep up with your product development cycle. AI analyzes sessions as they complete and delivers findings in time to inform your next decision. TheySaid is never a bottleneck. We move faster than traditional research by design.
Do I need research experience to use TheySaid?
No. Describe what you want to learn in plain language and AI builds the test plan for you. You do not need to know how to write research questions, moderate sessions, or analyze qualitative data. TheySaid handles all of it and delivers the findings in a format you can act on immediately.
How does TheySaid help with feature prioritization?
TheySaid shows you which features users actually need versus which ones they think they want. Test multiple feature concepts, compare task success rates and user sentiment across sessions, and build your roadmap from observed behavior instead of the loudest internal voices.
What types of products and flows can I test?
Anything accessible through a browser on a desktop or laptop, including live products, staging environments, and Figma prototypes. TheySaid is particularly well-suited for testing critical user flows like onboarding, feature discovery, upgrading, and cancellation, the experiences that most directly affect retention and revenue.
