Why Join the Checkpoint?
For UX teams working in fast-paced environments or smaller organizations, finding and recruiting participants with specific accessibility needs can be a bottleneck. Our monthly lab helps you to get started or creates momentum, allowing you to hook into a pre-organized research cycle. It is the perfect "learning by doing" opportunity; your team will be guided by our inclusive research advisors, gaining hands-on experience in how to moderate and observe sessions with diverse users.
This format supports continuous improvement. Because it happens every month, you can return to validate iterations or test new features before they go live. While the sample size of each individual session is focused (N=2) is focused, it provides high-impact qualitative insights that can steer your development in the right direction, especially when working in Agile or Scrum cycles.
