# Synthetic panel

> Explore follow-up hypotheses with simulations grounded in your existing interviews.

The synthetic panel helps you explore possible answers to a new question using the interviews you have already collected. Use it to sharpen a hypothesis, prepare a team discussion or plan your next study.

## Keep learning after fieldwork

Suppose your study explored how shoppers judge packaging. Ask what they might need to understand before considering a refill format, then use the simulated responses to refine questions for your next round of research.

In **Synthetic panel**, choose a participant group, enter a focused question and select **Ask the panel**. Compare the generated responses and inspect the source audit to see which statements are grounded in interviews, inferred or unsupported.

## Use simulations with confidence

Synthetic responses are **AI-generated simulations**. They help you explore hypotheses; validate new claims with real participants before using them as research evidence. Keep simulations labeled when sharing them, separate from participant quotations and research counts.

If the answer may already be in your research, ask the [Research Agent](/exploring/research-agent) to find the evidence.
