See the Unseen with Product View AI

Re-imagining Product Testing with Vision AI and AI Agents

What if you could see the unseen? 

Video and advanced AI in product testing makes the invisible, visible.

Ipsos announces the launch of Product View AI, a new Ipsos HI+AI solution designed to reimagine product testing.

The Challenge

In the world of product testing, the traditional in-home test has long been a staple. However, traditional in-home tests often rely on surveys, which only capture one side of the product experience. Consumer videos augment surveys to enrich product testing – surfacing unspoken rituals, hidden workarounds, and product friction.

A subtle eyebrow-raise when the shampoo bottle claims to be “sulfate-free.” A wince when cleaning spray fumes smell strong after the first spray.A surprised reaction to a makeup foundation pump that dispenses a larger-than-needed dose.

Recognizing this, Ipsos developed Product View AI, a new Ipsos HI+AI solution designed to reimagine product testing.

Introducing Product View AI

Product View AI augments in-home product tests with consumer videos, observational techniques, Vision AI, and AI agents. 

See your product experiences in action
Beyond surveys, Ipsos collects raw consumer videos of product experiences, revealing everything they do  and experience - not just what they say.
De-code emotions and behaviors
Ipsos decodes hidden emotions and behaviors with observational techniques, designed to unlock the “why” behind every activity, goal, feeling, action, actor, event, time, space, and object associated with the product.
Test products at speed and scale
Vision AI models, fine-tuned with observational techniques, rapidly synthesize the videos at speed and scale, transforming observations into actionable recommendations.
Enrich learnings with Ipsos agents
A team of interdisciplinary AI agents – representing a semiotician, anthropologist, neuroscientist, and more - enriches insights, and transforms them into actionable guidance for product development.  

This new approach to product testing transforms unfiltered consumer videos into actionable recommendations for product development - fueling better product decisions and sharper marketing strategies, for fewer product launch failures.

Product View AI turns the say‑do gap into see‑do clarity. Using in‑home video, Computer Vision AI, and expert agents to overcome legacy IHUT blind spots and fast‑track the right fixes, so your product isn’t just tested, it wins.
