The most consistent feedback we've heard from the Polis community has been simple: I want to see more studies I can participate in. We took that seriously, and today the Discover Studies page reflects it.

What's Changed

If you've logged into Polis before, you're already familiar with the Discover Studies page. Previously, the studies shown there were ones you'd been directly matched to based on your profile. A solid starting point, but limited in scope.

That's no longer the case.

Discover Studies now surfaces a much broader range of active research opportunities. With more projects available at any given time, you're more likely to find something that fits. And with filtering by study type, incentive, and length, it's easy to zero in on what's right for you.

How It Works

If you've been invited or recommended to a study, you'll see it marked as Pre-Approved. No application needed, you can start right away. For everything else, applying takes just a few clicks. Once you've submitted, your application shows as Applied while our team reviews it. If you're a good match, you'll move to Accepted and can start the study immediately.

Why the Application Step?

The application process ensures the right people are matched to each project, which leads to better experiences for participants and higher-quality research. Every application is reviewed by our team.

Log In and Take a Look

Head to your Polis dashboard and open Discover Studies. Chances are you'll see a lot more than the last time you checked.

New projects are added regularly, so it's worth revisiting even if nothing jumps out today.
