Building the standard for surveys you can actually trust.
We started Surbee because the gap between “the survey shipped” and “the data is real” kept costing serious research teams real decisions. So we built the layer in between.
Our mission
Make every survey a piece of research you can defend, from the first draft to the published readout. We believe research deserves the same engineering rigor as the rest of your data stack.
How we work
Small, opinionated team. Long edit cycles, short ship cycles. We write code that researchers can read, ship features behind benchmarks, and document everything we learn, even the misses.
Who we’re for
Insights and CX teams running trackers. Market research firms running panels at scale. Academic and policy researchers running long-term studies. Anyone who needs the data to be right, not just present.
What we believe
Three principles that drive every decision we make about the product.
Open methodology
Cipher’s checks, scores, and rationale are inspectable. Every flag has an underlying signal you can argue with. We publish our research because methodology that can’t be reviewed isn’t research.
Model-agnostic
Plug Surbee into any LLM, BI tool, or panel provider. Every link in the chain is swappable, and your team owns the choices.
Your cloud, your data
Hosted, private cloud, or fully on-prem: same product, same audit trail. Sensitive research workflows should never have to leave your control.
