Reos vs Askable

Askable brings the panel. Reos makes the findings hold up.

Askable is built around its own verified panel, with incentives included and 16 test methods - a strong recruiting engine, credit where it's due. Reos is built around the research itself: your own customers, recordings from any call tool, AI interviews on every plan, and analysis that drops any claim its quote doesn't support.

The honest take

A panel on tap, or a study you can trust

If you need people who match a screener by Thursday, with incentives paid for you, Askable is hard to beat. If your questions are about your own customers, and you need the answers to stand up in a roadmap meeting, Reos goes further.

Choose Askable if...

  • You recruit from a general panel most of the time and want participants and incentives handled inside one price.
  • You run a wide range of unmoderated tests - SUS, A/B variants, stack rank, live mobile - and want every method on every plan.
  • You want unlimited seats, or ISO 27701 and UK Cyber Essentials matter to your procurement team.

Choose Reos if...

  • Your calls already happen on Zoom, Meet or Teams, or sit in a folder of old recordings, and you want them analyzed in one place.
  • You want AI-moderated interviews on every plan, and every claim checked against its quote before it reaches you.
  • Your research data needs to stay in the EU, and you'd like to read the price before the sales call.

Side by side

The loop, side by side

Askable goes deep on recruiting and testing with its own panel. Here's how the rest of the research workflow compares.

Recordings

One call tool, or every call

Askable runs its sessions in its own call tool, Askable Sessions, and recordings from Zoom, Google Meet or another platform can't be imported. Reos hosts sessions in the browser too - and also joins the call you already booked, and takes any recording you already have.

  • Bring the call you already bookedA bot joins Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams and records it, for 1 unit per meeting.
  • Every old recording countsUpload any audio or video file, from any tool or any year. Transcription and speaker detection are automatic.
  • AI interviews on every planNo add-on: two-way voice in 12 languages, sessions in parallel, and you can listen in on any of them live. 2 units each.

Analysis

Every claim, read against its quote

Askable's Ask AI links every quote to who said it and the clip it came from, and gives each insight a quality score based on its evidence - genuinely useful. Reos adds one more step before anything reaches you: each claim is read against the quote it cites, and if the quote doesn't support the claim, the claim doesn't survive.

  • Dropped, not just scoredA claim whose quote says something else never reaches your report, however confident it sounds.
  • It stops instead of guessingWhen a passage could mean two things, analysis pauses on it rather than picking a reading for you.
  • Thin findings say soContradicting evidence sits beside the supporting quotes, and a finding that rests on too little is flagged.

three claims, one check

  1. Setup takes too long for small teams.

    holds

    It took us most of a week to get the first project going. - participant 3

  2. Admins want to invite their team in bulk.

    holds

    I added all twelve of them, one by one. - participant 7

  3. Price is the main reason people leave.

    dropped

    The price was fine - we just never got past setup. - participant 5

    the quote says the opposite

Pricing

A price you can read before the demo

Askable moved to annual plans in June 2026 and publishes no amounts; participants and incentives come inside what you buy. Reos publishes every plan - $59, $249 or $999 a month, with 12, 60 or 300 research units - and an AI-moderated interview is 2 units.

Askable

  • Book a demoNo published prices: Pro and Enterprise are quoted by sales and billed annually.
  • Participants includedRecruitment and incentives come in the plan, with no recruitment fee - a real plus if you recruit often.
  • AI on an add-onAI moderation, Ask AI and the MCP server need the AI enablement add-on.

Reos

  • One monthly priceHosting, your team, panel and repository - from $59 a month, with research units included.
  • Units, not metersAn interview or a written report is 1 unit, an AI-moderated interview 2, and 100 tickets or reviews 1. Transcription, analysis, clustering and storage come with it.
  • Top up, never guessHeavier month than planned? Top up units in one click at a published rate, and they never expire.
