Research workflow
Getting started with Painsh research
Build your first audience, run a search, and review evidence-backed problem patterns.
Start with a focused audience: describe the people, workflow, or market you want to understand. Add relevant communities and save the words customers use when they describe the problem.
Run a research query with a time window and signal categories. Painsh collects public conversations, removes obvious duplicates, and scores the strongest problem signals.
Open a pattern to review its sample count, communities, dates, representative quotes, and source links. Save useful posts and export the evidence for your product brief.
Once the query is useful, enable a daily or weekly monitor. Painsh will send new high-confidence signals so research stays current.
