New: Smarter attention checks for higher-quality panel responses

We’re making it easier than ever to gather high-quality insights with an enhanced attention check system that ensures more reliable participant responses.

What’s new?

  • Clearer warnings & second chances – Participants who fail an attention check now receive explicit alerts and a chance to correct their response.
  • Stronger enforcement – Repeated failures lead to exclusion, significantly reducing poor-quality data.
  • Direct provider reporting – We now report failures to panel providers (Cint & Prolific) to improve tester accountability and overall panel quality.

How it works:

  • Participants who fail an attention check get a warning and a chance to improve.
  • If they fail again, they’re excluded to maintain response quality.
  • Panel providers receive reports on repeated failures, improving long-term panel integrity.

Rollout status:

  • Now live for Cint and Prolific panels (English browsers)
