~We're ready to DTR (define the relationship if this isn't of your generation 🙃 )~
For 40 years, we’ve built Symmetric around one core principle: data quality comes first.
This starts with our homegrown proprietary panels and extends into every partnership we use to deliver high quality respondents to your surveys.
Executing on this means regularly evaluating our partnerships & tech stack and testing the most innovative products on the market. Last year, we took a hard look at our multi-step fraud detection approach to address the rising fraud in our industry.
In May of 2025, we put Verisoul to the test against our existing MR-specific fraud solution. Verisoul won by a landslide.
By partnering with Verisoul, we’ve been able to:
→ Catch 28% more fraud during pre-screening
→ Reduce client reconciliation rates by 31%
→ Improve our delivery efficiency on large scale projects (including lowering reconciliation by 45% for a client with 12M+ starts)
With stronger fraud prevention at the front door, our team can stay focused on delivering high-quality panelists for our clients and exceptional experiences for our panelists without compromising speed or scale.

In market research, there's a critical distinction between respondent integrity and response quality
A respondent can be a real human in the right geolocation... but leave a lousy response
OR a respondent can be a fraudster spoofing their location... but write in responses that look normal
Our customer KADRO was an expert in detecting low quality responses, but needed a banking-grade solution to help catch low-integrity respondents regardless of their response quality
Enter Verisoul:
✅ 15% more fraud detected vs response quality checks
✅ Programmatically blocking users in the "bad user, bad response" category, saving dozens of manual hours per month
KADRO can now easily vet new third-party partners with confidence and continue to provide high quality insights to their customers
Marketing vs Sales
Customer Success vs Product
Finance vs... Everyone
Since business functions came into existence, so has internal team tension*
We see it everyday in fraud prevention - ops teams want to limit fraud, while GTM teams want to grow users
As demonstrated in our latest case study with Skylup/PixyLabs and Swaarm, Verisoul customers can have their cake and eat it too
Reputation is critical in fraud prevention. Advertisers don't want fake leads**
Given this, Skylup was hesitant to onboard new publisher partners. A single low-quality publisher can cost Skylup >$100k per year in reversals
With Verisoul, however, Skylup didn't have to worry about publisher reputation - they could trust Verisoul would sieve out any fraud
Through Verisoul's direct integration inside of Swaarm,*** Skylup's reversal rates were down >80%
Given this confidence, Skylup was able to onboard 8 new publishers in just 2 weeks, increasing overall lead traffic 5% (!!!)
Fraud prevention and growth teams want the same thing after all: real users

Market research has a dirty secret nobody wants to talk about.
Everyone in the supply chain gets paid to pass respondents through, not to stop and verify who they actually are. The incentive is volume, not quality. And when the incentive is wrong, the behavior follows.
Joey Maddox and Henry LeGard from Verisoul join .Priscilla McKinney. on this episode of Ponderings from the Perch to explain why trap questions don't work anymore, why IP deduplication blocks the wrong people, and what happens when a three-week diligence survey collapses because nobody checked if the data was real.
Spoiler alert: It cost their clients insight they needed for a hundred-million-dollar decision.

I'm ecstatic to announce Verisoul's $9M Series A, led by High Alpha
14 months ago, I made the jump to Verisoul. To be honest, I was terrified
I had never worked in operations or at a start-up (much less as the first employee of a Seed-stage company)
We had unlimited direction for how we could position the product… but not unlimited runway
With heavy investment in our infrastructure for scalability, it was clear we weren't going to hit profitability before burning through our Seed round. We had to grow quickly to position ourselves for a Series A, which meant building a product that was able to displace large incumbents across several verticals
And I'm proud to say: we did. We 6x'd ARR in the last 12 months alone, crossed $2M of ARR, beat well-funded incumbents in H2H tests on an accuracy basis, added blue chip customer logos (like Warp, Morning Consult, Augment Code), retained them, and built a massive pipeline across market research, AI software, advertising, and trust & safety use cases
With our $9M Series A, I've never been more confident in the future of our company
We have a new Board Member in Scott Dorsey (from High Alpha), existing investors who doubled down (like BITKRAFT Ventures and Third Prime), and new investors Lookout Ventures and Future Back Ventures by Bain & CompanyHenry LeGard, Niel K., Raine Scott, Alex Pentimonti, Sean Luis Cambel, Andre Mariano, Arun Kumar - I've loved working with you all, and I can't wait to continue building something special. The real work begins now!
If you love the mission and are interested in Sales, Marketing, or Growth roles, shoot me a ping 🚀
Henry LeGard had the chance to sit down with Massimo Caroli, Illia Frantsevskyi, and Eran Friedman last week to chat through fraud prevention in the rewarded advertising space.
Give it a listen if you weren't one of the 200+ people who joined!
Over 200 people watched our webinar on fraud prevention. Now that makes me happy!
And for a few reasons. The first one is that with me, I had Eran Friedman, Henry LeGard, and Illia Frantsevskyi to discuss this topic.
Second, it shows that many people care about this topic, and that’s important. Because fraud is everyone’s problem.
For advertisers, fraud means money wasted on the wrong users.
For publishers and networks, it kills trust and credibility.
So why aren’t we all talking about it?
Because no one likes to be associated with the word fraud.
Doesn’t make the issue go away tho. And that’s exactly why I’m proud of this discussion.
If you’re interested in where fraud appears in the rewarded user journey, how we protect the flow, how fraud has evolved, and how we stay ahead of it, make sure to watch the recording right here on LinkedIn 👉️https://lnkd.in/gNkdpccW
Thanks to everyone who joined live, everyone watching the recording, and of course, everyone who made this webinar possible!
