Empowering the largest knowledge workforce on Earth.
The txteagle platform is the perfect way to gather local information from individuals in the developing world. Locating individuals in the developing world can traditionally be a challenge – many live in relatively isolated conditions. Increasingly, however, most are living within the reach of cellular service, making it possible to remotely administer interactive text-based surveys. In Kenya, for example, 90% of the population presently lives in an area with GSM reception.
One of the key ways in which txteagle is truly unique is that we can connect clients to a truly mobile labor force. This allows a great deal of flexibility in being able to acquire local content. We have the ability to send out workers “out into the field” to gather, update, and verify information. The rise of the mobile phone in the developing world has had a radical impact on a researcher’s ability to gather information. Surveyors are no longer forced to choose between expensive travel or “convenience samples” consisting only of individuals readily accessible. txteagle gives you the ability to screen for certain demographics, and the ability to provide direct incentives for survey completion.
Below are a few examples of how txteagle is helping different researchers gather information from individuals living in the developing world. If you are interested in gathering local information in the areas of the world we operate in, please contact us with an explanation of the type of content you are looking to acquire.
