Listen Labs

Listen Labs is an AI-powered customer research platform that runs AI-moderated user interviews end to end: you define a research goal and a study guide, Listen recruits and screens participants from its panel or your own list, conducts multilingual voice interviews with an AI moderator, and then analyzes the transcripts into themes, segments, executive summaries, video highlight reels, and sourced quotes. The platform is programmable through a public REST API that lets you create a draft study from a JSON study guide, launch it to obtain a self-recruit link, and pull back responses, answers, transcripts, and per-question analysis. Listen Labs also publishes an officially hosted remote MCP server with OAuth 2.1 so agents in Claude, ChatGPT, and Codex can create, edit, launch, and analyze studies conversationally.

Listen Labs publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Public API — Study Data and Public API v2. Tagged areas include Company, Ai, Market Research, Customer Research, and User Interviews.

Listen Labs’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, signup flow, support, engineering blog, YouTube channel, and 21 more developer resources.
