New York – July 26, 2022 – – E2E Research has announced the release of Inscribee, a digital signature tool that facilitates the collection of electronic signatures from participants at any stage of the online or offline research process. This solution builds on E2E Research’s extensive capabilities and proprietary innovations that simplify and streamline the research process for both research participants and users.

“We saw so many research users struggling with the traditional participant signature process,” said Rupa Raje, President at E2E Research. “They needed a tool that would simplify the consent process for their research participants, one that didn’t require participants to leave the survey environment to check their emails and send back completed forms. Inscribee is the perfect solution for both online and offline research experiences. Whether participant names and email addresses are known or not, they can easily complete a consent form on their own device or a client’s device.”

“Our engineers designed Inscribee to be comprehensive, secure, and easy to use,” added Yogesh Rana, COO at E2E Research. “It’s easy to set up consent documents within all of the major scripting programs, including Qualtrics, Confirmit, Decipher, and more. And, it can be easily set up to receive thousands of signatures via a business website or just a few signatures from emailed documents like NDAs and SOWs.”

“Improving the research experience is such as important part of promoting positive growth within the research industry,” said Annie Pettit, Chief Research Officer, North America at E2E Research. “When we can make any part of the research experience easier and more enjoyable, it’s a benefit for everyone. In this case, we’ve helped researchers by removing barriers to consent, and we’ve helped research participants by removing annoying and unnecessary extra steps. Inscribee is a win for everyone.”

Are consent forms slowing you down?

Say hello to Inscribee!

Most businesses have moved their standard contracts, including NDAs, MSAs, and SOWs, from paper and pencil signatures to digital signatures. Electronic or digital signatures are secure, legally binding, and traceable. And, they speed up business processes immensely.

We can easily do the same with research participant consent forms, whether in-person or online. For fieldwork managers and vendor managers, digital signatures are particularly convenient for handling lots of forms across multiple projects and facilities. Rather than trying to store reams of consent forms and other paper contracts in filing cabinets or gigabytes of files across multiple client folders, digital signature tools allow you to prepare, maintain, and track thousands of contracts in one spot.

How can market researchers benefit from Inscribee?

In order to encourage openness and honesty from participants, researchers want the research experience to be as personal and friendly as possible. However, we also need to ensure that both the researcher and the research participant understand what will happen and what is expected of each party. Even though they feel formal and sometimes off-putting, contracts are unavoidable. What we can do is make sure the contract process is as simple and straightforward as possible.

• Mid-Survey Consent: Researchers often need to gain consent during the survey experience. However, traditional signature tools require participants to exit the survey, check their email, complete a form, email it back to someone, and then return to the survey. Ultimately, this leads to unnecessary dropouts as some people will simply quit or get distracted never to return to the survey. By embedding Inscribee within a questionnaire, participants can remain in the questionnaire throughout the entire research experience. You can collect hundreds or thousands of consent forms without forcing participants leave the survey.

• In-Person Consent: When people participate in mall intercepts or visit central location facilities to participate in focus groups, interviews, or other in-person events, researchers can avoid creating mounds of paper work by using Inscribee digital signatures. Inscribee allows the research team to collect signatures on the spot even if participants don’t have their own data-enabled digital device with them. Participants sign the document digitally on your device, whether that’s a mobile phone, tablet, or desktop computer. Participants can also provide an email address where they will receive the fully signed document.

• Reinforce Confidentiality: It’s nearly impossible to ‘force’ research participants to not share confidential information about products or concepts they see during research. However, creating a legally binding contract is a professional way to remind participants that the only way brands can continue to invite them to participate in these kinds of research projects is if they maintain confidentiality. A short one-page document signed by the research participant midway through a research study can remind them of what they agreed to prior to participating in the study.

• Supplementary Consent: Some exercises completed during a research study may require additional consent beyond what was originally planned. Perhaps you’ve decided to incorporate a video or audio question and need to confirm that participants understand how that data containing PII will be used. Or, perhaps a segment of people may be asked to participate in a follow-up interview. Inscribee can be embedded into the questionnaire prior to the supplementary ask to gain appropriate consent in a convenient way.
