Recollective Conversation Tasks do not rely on a fixed script. The powerful AI moderator listens to what a participant shares, then asks the next best question in the moment, without losing sight of your Conversation Objective.
You set the goal, the flow and the tone, plus any steps, probes or sample questions you want the AI moderator to follow. From there, it adapts naturally to each response, clarifying, probing and connecting threads while staying accountable to your objective.
For participants, it feels like a real conversation that invites reflection, not a form to complete. For researchers, it offers consistent, scalable depth you can capture asynchronously, then review, summarize and analyze immediately.
Instead of waiting days to schedule follow-ups, you get transcripts and summaries that are instantly ready for review, export and analysis.
When a Conversation Task is completed, Recollective automatically:
Raw dialogue becomes analysis-ready output the moment participants finish their conversation.
"With a high‑stakes client and a short timeline, we needed actionable and detailed insights fast. The AI moderation tool allowed us to capture the underlying motivations behind participants’ responses – with an incredibly fast turnaround. The feedback we gathered ensured our client could make informed adjustments to an important product ahead of their deadline."
