About Auxos
Summary
Auxos builds AI-powered digital twins of a company's real customers, letting marketing, product, and research teams run surveys, focus groups, and concept tests against a simulated audience instead of recruiting and moderating live panels. Auxos interviews real people who match a client's ideal customer profile to ground each twin in an actual respondent, then makes that panel available on demand. The product replaces traditional market research that takes weeks and significant budget, cutting the cycle to minutes for day-to-day decisions on pricing, positioning, and product direction.
Business model
Subscription or per-use access to a digital twin research panel, priced for ongoing team use.
Go-to-market
Auxos sells to B2B marketing, product, and research teams; buyers start by booking a demo and supplying a work email to access the platform.

Simulations of real people for market research
Auxos builds AI customer twins for marketing, product, and research teams to test their hypotheses at scale. We work with companies to create 1:1 replicas of their customers by sourcing and interviewing real people in their ICP, allowing us to accurately model how they behave and make decisions. Currently, market research is too slow and expensive to use on anything but the biggest decisions. Surveys and panels cost a fortune and it takes weeks to recruit, moderate, and gather insights. Auxos provides a 24/7 available customer panel that can give population-scale insights in minutes. The day-to-day decisions surrounding product, pricing, and positioning can now be validated with the same rigor that used to be reserved for the big ones.
