Research notice

Saath Study is independent product research about everyday communication habits among adults in India. Please read this before deciding whether to participate.

Why we are doing this

We want to understand moments when someone wants to talk but decides not to contact another person, what they do instead, and whether a carefully bounded conversation product could help. We are validating a problem and willingness to pay. We are not testing a medical intervention.

Who can take part

You may participate if you are 18 or older. The initial study is intended for people who live in or have current day-to-day experience of India.

What participation involves

The study takes about five minutes. It asks about broad demographics, one recent pattern, alternatives you used, a product concept, and a realistic monthly price. It does not ask for your exact birthday, address, employer, institution, medical history, diagnosis, or detailed private story.

Your choice

Participation is voluntary. You can leave before submission and nothing is sent to our research database. Unfinished answers may remain in this browser for up to 24 hours so you can continue, but the recovery draft excludes optional contact details. After submitting, you receive a response code and secret deletion token. Keep both if you may want to delete your response. Your analytics setting does not affect your ability to participate and can be changed from the footer.

Optional follow-up

You can separately opt in to a paid interview or an early pilot. If you do, your name and contact method are encrypted and stored in a separate table. Interview and pilot selection are not guaranteed.

Potential discomfort

Reflecting on loneliness or an unmet need to talk may feel uncomfortable. You can skip the study by closing the page. This website is not monitored for urgent messages and is not a therapy or crisis service.
