Expert research is a broken industry dominated by legacy incumbents with expensive, manual, and slow services. Investment and corporate strategy teams spend hundreds of hours coordinating intermediaries, scheduling expert calls, and synthesizing insights across fragmented providers. The process takes weeks to produce short-lived intelligence.
Qualitate transforms this workflow by autonomously conducting expert discussions at scale using AI. Qualitate’s AI Moderator interviews thousands of experts simultaneously each month, capturing forward-looking purchasing plans, competitive displacement, and real-time ROI signals. The platform turns these interviews into quantified, time-series outputs tracking over 10,000 public and private companies, queryable instantly in natural language. Our customers include some of the world’s largest enterprises, hedge funds, PE firms, credit investors, and venture capital firms.

Primary research is a core workflow in healthcare. Diligence, forecasting, and product decisions all run through what practitioners, payers, and buyers are seeing - but that process faces a major scalability bottleneck. We've already solved this bottleneck in several other industries, and demand from the healthcare market has been loud enough that we're now running the same playbook here.
Reporting to the Director of Research, you'll shape the healthcare research roadmap, decide what we cover and when, determine the most pertinent questions and KPIs, and publish the insights that establish this coverage in the market. You'll be in front of investors and corporate teams, and you'll be accountable for the outcomes: the quality of the research, its predictive accuracy, and the reputation of Qualitate's healthcare franchise.
