For Sample Providers

Emporia is excited to extend the capabilities of Polis to sample suppliers, offering a cutting-edge solution for panel authentication and verification. This feature empowers sample providers to utilize the robust LinkedIn OAuth verification process at the very entry point of a survey, ensuring unparalleled data quality and participant fit.

Seamless Authentication Process

Sample suppliers can leverage Polis to present participants with a 'Login with LinkedIn' screen before they start a survey. This innovative approach not only streamlines the entry process but also reinforces the authenticity of each participant.

Advanced Profile Scanning

Upon login, Polis skillfully scans each participant's LinkedIn profile. This scan is crucial in determining whether they are the right fit for the survey, based on their professional background and expertise.

Privacy and Security

Emporia upholds the highest standards of data privacy and security. No personal data from the LinkedIn profiles is stored during this process. It is purely a point-in-time check, designed to verify the participant's suitability without compromising their privacy or the sample provider's proprietary panel.

Enhanced Data Integrity

With Polis, sample suppliers can assure their clients of the highest quality and relevance of respondents. This system significantly reduces the chances of mismatched or unqualified participants, thereby enhancing the overall quality of the research

Conclusion

Polis is more than just a new feature; it’s a tool aimed at redefining the B2B research landscape. For researchers, it promises high-quality, LinkedIn-verified participants, heightened engagement, and the ability to connect with hyper-niche audiences. For participants, it delivers a streamlined user experience, faster payouts, and (soon) forthcoming networking opportunities. For sample providers it offers a enhanced way to verify your panel.
