About us

We are the kids and family specialists.

Since 2017 we have listened to kids, teens, young adults and parents at a scale no one else can match, and turned what they tell us into market intelligence the world's biggest brands trust.

Who we are

Insight-led, human-first.

The family economy influences over a trillion dollars in spending, yet most decisions about it are still made on assumption and instinct. We exist to change that, by replacing guesswork with independent, real-time evidence.

We are not a panel you dust off once a year. We are an always-on instrument, hearing from close to a million kids, teens, young adults and parents annually across 22 markets. And because we are specialists, we do not just count behaviour, we understand the human story behind it.

Before a brand earns a family's loyalty, it has to earn their attention. We help you understand both.

Our scale

The independent authority on kids, teens, young adults and parents.

No one else listens to kids and families at this scale, this often. Most research is a snapshot. Ours never stops.

Why The Insights Family

Our values

The principles behind every number.
