Facts are from each vendor’s own site that day. QuestionPunk is our product, so it’s listed first, with its limits.

The short answer

The main Listen Labs alternatives are QuestionPunk, Outset, Conveo, Strella, Glaut, User Intuition and Koji. Listen Labs runs AI interviews by text, audio and video, with screen recording, and recruits from its own network. It doesn’t publish prices.

If you want a price you can see before you start, QuestionPunk (free plan, Pro at $29 a month), User Intuition ($30 a voice interview) and Koji (€29 a month) publish theirs and let you sign up yourself. If you want a vendor with its own panel, look at Strella and User Intuition.

The alternatives

  1. 1. QuestionPunk

    Best for
    Running AI interviews this week at a price you can see, alongside ordinary survey questions in the same study.
    Price
    The Free plan needs no card and includes up to 5,000 AI text follow-ups a month on the standard models. Pro is $29 a month or $290 a year. Voice interviews and analysis use AI credits: 3,000 a month on Free and 25,000 on Pro, at 1,000 credits to the dollar.
    How it interviews
    By text in 130+ languages or by voice in 25, from one link. Text follow-ups stop after a set number (0 to 10), when the AI judges it has enough, or after a set time. Voice interviews run for a set time, from 1 minute to 4 hours. You pick the interviewer’s model (3 on Free, every model we offer on Pro) and can read the full prompt behind it. It can record the participant’s audio or camera and ask them to share their screen.
    Recruiting
    Share a link or embed, or recruit through a third-party panel, up to 10,000 participants per study.
    Analysis
    Themes and quotes. Every quote in a report is checked against the participant’s actual answer and dropped if it doesn’t match. Reports export as PDF or Word, and responses as Excel or CSV.
    What to watch
    Voice covers 25 languages, fewer than most tools here. There’s no panel of our own. The interviewer talks by text or voice, with an optional animated avatar on voice.
    Compared with Listen Labs
    Published prices and a free plan. You choose when follow-ups stop, pick the interviewer’s model and read its full prompt. Voice covers 25 languages to Listen Labs’ 42, and we don’t have a panel of our own.

    Recruiting
    25+ panel integrations.
    What to watch
