About Navay

We build synthetic persona technology that helps teams understand how diverse people will react to their content — or respond to their research questions — before they commit resources.

Navay is the company. Chorus is the research and evaluation platform.

The Problem

Opinion-Based

Most decisions start as debates

Days of Delay

Research timelines don't match project deadlines

Gut Instinct

The default when there's no audience data

Teams ship products, policies, and campaigns based on intuition — or worse, HiPPO (Highest Paid Person's Opinion). Good ideas fail because nobody asked the right audience. Bad ideas ship because research was too slow or too expensive.

Our Solution

Navay gives teams structured perspectives from diverse synthetic personas. Our platform, Chorus, can evaluate content across audience segments or run qualitative research interviews — surfacing where your message lands, where perspectives diverge, and what you'd miss without diverse input.

Our product, Chorus, gives you two modes:

  • Evaluation — upload content (ads, documents, AI outputs, policies) and get structured feedback from diverse personas
  • Research — ask open-ended questions and get qualitative responses grounded in real demographics and cultural contexts
