Understand the research objective, target respondents, sample size, geography and survey duration.
Prepare the questions and programme them into a computer-assisted telephone interview system.
Trained interviewers make calls, ask the questions and record responses in the survey system.
Review responses, check data quality and prepare survey summaries, tables and dashboards.
Survey scope, respondent lists, languages, sample design and reporting frequency are agreed for each project.
CATI stands for Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing. An interviewer speaks to a respondent over the phone while following a questionnaire displayed on a computer. The answers are recorded directly into the survey system.
This approach helps research teams follow the same set of questions, monitor completed interviews and review survey progress without waiting for paper questionnaires to be collected and entered later.
CATI can be used for political surveys as well as market, consumer, customer satisfaction and institutional research.
A CATI project generates several types of information. These sample dashboards show how survey progress, respondent profiles, call outcomes, research responses and interview quality can be presented in one place. Select each tab to explore the different views.

CATI interviews are conducted over the telephone. Field surveys involve interviewers meeting respondents in person. The right method depends on the target population, research questions, available contact details, coverage needs and the nature of the study.
Yes. A CATI project can be planned across multiple states and selected languages. The languages, interviewer requirements, respondent sample and calling plan should be agreed before the survey begins.
Survey progress can be reviewed through dashboards that show calls attempted, completed interviews, pending callbacks, call outcomes, sample progress and quality checks. The exact dashboard depends on the survey system and the reporting requirements.
A CATI report can include survey methodology, sample details, respondent profiles, question-wise responses, charts, response comparisons and key observations. The final report is prepared around the agreed research objectives.
Compare companies on their research planning, questionnaire design, interviewer training, calling process, quality monitoring, sample management and reporting.
