The team is looking forward to catching the data quality sessions that address current operational challenges in market research. The AI-focused tracks look like they’ll be examining technical requirements for datasets and practical applications of synthetic data.
Research Defender + ReDem
SampleCon marks Rep Data’s first major industry event since acquiring ReDem in February. The acquisition combines Research Defender's pre-survey fraud prevention with ReDem's real-time, in-survey response evaluation. Both solutions detect and block bots, AI-assisted survey takers and other high-risk behavior.
Research Defender screens traffic before surveys begin, blocking professional respondents, duplication, and fraudulent activity. ReDem applies AI-powered scoring during fieldwork, assessing behavioral analytics, open-ended response quality, timing patterns, and coherence. The combined approach reduces manual data cleaning and addresses quality issues throughout the survey lifecycle.
Our team will discuss how the integrated solutions work together and answer questions about implementation. Stop by to learn about the end-to-end quality framework or schedule time with Vignesh, Ricky, or Aaron during the conference.
