What's a research partner?

  1. As a Research Partner, you get the PlotStudio team working alongside you on your research.We learn your methods, work through difficult analysis workflows with you, and build capabilities in PlotStudio around what your research needs.You receive complimentary usage and direct access to the people doing that work.

    AI doesn’t understand how your field works?

    Tried AI analysis tools and found they don’t fit your methods, datasets, or lab’s workflows?That’s who this partnership is for: researchers working with niche methods, unusual dataset structures, or field-specific conventions that current tools keep getting wrong.

  2. When PlotStudio falls short, we dig into the workflow with you, understand how your field expects the analysis to work, and test improvements together.

  3. The capabilities we build remain part of PlotStudio. When they can help other researchers, we make them available more broadly.

Built through research partnership

These are live in PlotStudio today. Each one came out of the research partnership, built at the request of researchers to help their research.

Research protocol planning

Define your research question, hypotheses, variables, and planned analyses before anything runs. Review the intended approach before execution.

Plan review checkpoints

You approve what runs, which methods are used, and what the assumptions are before execution. Nothing happens behind your back.

Domain skills

Encode how your field does analysis once, including required steps, thresholds, and reporting conventions. Every analysis then follows it.

Research needs can become product capabilities when the improvements help researchers more broadly.

What you get

Complimentary PlotStudio usage and hands-on help with your research methods, datasets, and analysis workflows.

1,000 Complimentary Credits

Start with 1,000 PlotStudio credits for real projects and datasets. Active partners can receive additional credits as the collaboration continues.

Built Around Your Research

When your research needs a method, validation step, or reporting convention PlotStudio doesn’t support, we work through it with you and build useful capabilities into the tool. You can try them on your research as they’re developed.

Direct Access & Hands-on Support

Talk directly with the people building PlotStudio. We work through difficult analyses with you, reproduce problems, review workflows, and test improvements together.

Who we’re looking for

Researchers who regularly analyze data and have encountered specific limitations in current AI tools.

PhD researchers · Postdoctoral researchers · Faculty · Research scientists
Clinical researchers · Methodologists · Research staff

Especially useful if your group comes to you for help with methods, statistics, code, or analytical tools.

Finally, an AI Tool for SERIOUS Data Analysis

Razia tested PlotStudio on a 971-person COVID survey, checked its missing-data calculations, and challenged it with a misleading treatment-effectiveness question. Her review covers what worked, where it needed scrutiny, and why researcher judgment still matters.

How it works

01

Apply

Tell us what you research, how you work with data, and where current AI tools fall short.

02

Talk with the founder

We’ll have a short conversation about your research, the analyses you need help with, and whether the partnership is a good fit. Partners are selected for ongoing research use and a workflow we can meaningfully help with.

03

Start using it on real research

Receive your credits, Research Passes, and direct access to the team.

04

Work through the difficult parts

Use PlotStudio on real work. Bring us what works and what doesn’t, and we’ll use what we learn to improve the product.

Bring your research group

Research rarely happens alone. Every Research Partner starts with 5 Research Passes.

5 passes × 500 credits each

Research Passes give collaborators, labmates, and researchers in your network complimentary credits to try PlotStudio on their own work.

Frequently asked questions

No fixed commitment. We want partners who will use PlotStudio on real research and share feedback as things come up.

Let’s make PlotStudio work better for your field.

We review every application individually. If it's a fit, we'll reach out within 48 hours to schedule your walkthrough.
