iMotions Online
From instant AI prediction benchmarking to authentic human experiences.
iMotions Online is a browser-based research platform that combines real-world human response data with an AI engine trained on billions of facial expressions. Gain a 360-degree view of human behavior in one centralized, scalable workspace.
Complete Browser-Based Behavior Platform
A fully browser-based human behavior software platform for data collection and advanced data analysis - no hardware needed.
Go Beyond Surveys & Self-Report
Pair what people say with what they actually do, capturing authentic attention, emotion, and reaction, not just self-reported answers.
Capture Only Authentic Human Behavior
Studies that rely on eye tracking and facial expression analysis can't be faked by bots - no face = no participation.
FIND YOUR FIT
How do you want to work?
iMotions Online is the full online platform leveraging three different study types. Behavioral Research Online is the consumer neuroscience research package including surveys and integrated panel providers. Need structured video ad testing with benchmarking based on the world's largest facial expression data repository? Go with Integrated Media Analytics or Predictive AI.
Scale at your own pace by purchasing study tools individually.

WHY TRUST iMOTIONS
Built on the world’s largest emotional database.
100k+
Video ads tested with real human respondents — the foundation of every benchmark.
Billions
Facial expression frames the AI is trained on. Real human data, not synthetic.
Global
Benchmarks segmented by market, category, and geography.
THE iMOTIONS ADVANTAGE
AI is only as good as the human data behind it.
iMotions has been capturing real human biometric responses for years. That data powers our AI benchmarking which means every prediction is grounded in genuine emotional reactions, not modelled assumptions. When you benchmark with iMotions, you're comparing against reality.
