Research Connect

Research Connect is a project built to solve a core problem I noticed with many research work for students in educational institutions; the lack of access to survey participants. Students need data and information from participants to enable them gather insight and come to reasonable conclusions but many find it hard to get access to these. Google Forms sent to messaging platforms are a major channel through which many try to get access to responsdents but many end up being scrolled past like uninteresting reels on TikTok and really, why shouldn't it, answering every survery request I saw would be like reading the privacy policy on every page. Research connect bridges that gap by providing a platform where researchers can post surveys and respondents get paid for their participation. Just built this as part of an MLH Build-a-thon though.
