Case study · Consumer insights & primary research

How did a consumer insights team avoid $1M a month in duplicate research?

It consolidated its internal studies and subscription reports into one SinglePoint collection with full-text search. Teams now find existing research before commissioning new work, regulatory responses take minutes instead of months, and avoided studies save $1 million per month.

Before and after

What changed, side by side.

Before SinglePoint

Siloed research collections slowed product teams and led to duplicated studies.

  • New studies commissioned when relevant internal research already existed.
  • Tag-based search prevented teams finding insights early in decisions.
  • Manual processes delayed regulatory responses and raised compliance risk.

With SinglePoint

SinglePoint consolidated internal and subscription reports into one collection with full-text search.

  • Unified internal primary and licensed third-party research into one governed platform.
  • Replaced tag-based search with full-text search across every report.
  • Enabled role-based self-service for product, marketing, and regulatory teams.

The result

Regulatory turnaround fell to 45 minutes, avoided studies save $1M a month, and products reach market 6 to 9 months faster.
