Integrated Insights Control Booth

Decision Intelligence at Your Fingertips

Person using smartphone displaying data analytics on screen, next to a laptop showing similar charts and graphs. Features include bar graphs, line graphs, and pie charts showcasing various metrics.

The Integrated Insights Control Booth is Blackbox's state-of-the-art data command center, designed to harness the full spectrum of market research tools within a single, powerful platform.

It represents a quantum leap in insights architecture, providing holistic survey design, extensive fieldwork capacity, and a sophisticated digital reporting system tailored for a diverse range of research needs — from one-off studies to extensive longitudinal programs. This platform stands as the epitome of structured decision intelligence, helping you to transform raw data into crystal-clear strategic insights.

How the Integrated Insights Control Booth Works

  • 1. Sketching the Insights Infrastructure

    To create a cohesive intelligence picture, we first establish the scope of your Control Booth. What new research will we be undertaking? What existing data sources will we want piped in? What real-time reporting will be required? Will this be a longitudinal control booth, or a one-off?

  • 2. Design

    Once the blueprint is in place, we design the Control Booth in earnest. This encompasses both the study design of any original research being undertaken, as well as the building of the insights platform and its features, which will be undertaken concurrently.

  • 3. Reconcile

    Historic data — i.e. relevant insights to be added to the booth separate from the new study — are consolidated and reconciled ready for import and/or connection to the Control Booth. In many cases, data will need to be processed, scrubbed and formatted prior to inclusion.

  • 4. Execution

    The new study is completed and the insights are populated and analysed on the Control Booth. By this point, all complementary historic data is also present and we can now make final adjustments to the booth in readiness for completion and handover.

  • 5. Handover

    When the Control Booth is finalised, it is “handed over” to the client after a comprehensive briefing and training session. Blackbox remains as a full-time partner for clients who choose the full-service model, but even for those who prefer to self-manage, we will remain on standby to help.

Key Benefits

The Integrated Insights Control Booth is a sophisticated insights architecture that streamlines the entire research process.

Abstract geometric network of interconnected lines and nodes

Versatile and Customisable

There are no limitations to the parameters of the Control Booth. You decide what data to include and from where; how long you want new data to be tracked; and the type of analysis you want to see. You also choose what smart features the Control Booth should have.

Integrated Insights in Real-Time

Integrated Insights in Real-Time

Immediacy is the key to the Control Booth. Forget having to wait weeks — or even months — to see turgid PowerPoint reports that miss the forest for the trees anyway. Data is perpetually accessible, and interactive digital reporting provides live updates and real-time insights when you need them. Analyst notes are provided on-platform, and when reports are needed for stakeholder sharing, fully visualised outputs in a variety of formats can be created at the click of a button.

AI-Enhanced Sophistication

Secure

All data collected and presented on your Integrated Insights Control Booth will be safely secured within a fully compliant, non-cloud-based environment, guaranteeing the utmost data safety and integrity.

Ensuring utmost data safety and integrity

AI-Enhanced Sophistication

Integrated AI features provide instant, sophisticated analysis - surfacing data and trends of interest you really should be aware of. Reminders and alerts can be programmed to ensure you get timely updates on the data that matters most to you, while the AI will also help visualise and present data both on- and off-platform for optimal understanding and engagement.

Blackbox DiaMetrics

A Dynamic Communications Testing Tool

DiaMetrics is an advanced tool that challenges conventional narratives by evaluating how counterpoints affect prevailing wisdom, legacy messaging, or political talking points.

DiaMetrics helps you visualise the communications landscape with data-driven insights on what messages can be reinforced, neutralised, or negated based on your objectives.

Why You Need DiaMetrics?

DiaMetrics overcomes three common problems of traditional comms and message testing.

Bias

Traditional message testing methods often rely on self-reported feedback, which can be influenced by social desirability bias or respondents' tendency to give answers they think are expected.

Slow

As with so much conventional market research, the process takes too long. Even if your message has been tested properly, by the time it has, the world has already moved on.

Limited Context

Conventional testing often examines messages in isolation, without considering the broader context in which they will be received. It fails to account for external factors, such as competing messages, cultural nuances, or current events.
