# GhostClick

> GhostClick is an AI-moderated research interview platform. Researchers build a discussion guide once; an AI moderator interviews every participant by voice or text, on their own schedule, in 7 languages. The platform produces per-session summaries, cross-participant analysis with ROI/effort-scored recommendations, editable reports (Exec Summary, Team Report, Full Report), and CSV/JSON/PDF exports. Audio and media are stored at rest in a per-study region (UK, EU, or US); AI processing such as speech transcription and voice synthesis may run outside the selected region.

Pricing: £100 per study plus £15 per interview. No platform fee, no annual license.

Access: formal launch is imminent and self-serve signup is already open. Create a researcher account at https://ghostclick.app/login (email and password, Google, or magic link); register interest on the home page for launch news, or email hello@ghostclick.app for help.

Participants need no accounts and no scheduling: each receives a unique link, consents, and completes the interview by voice (up to three minutes per answer) or text, switching modes or pausing and resuming at any time.

Forward-looking: GhostClick is designed so that AI agents, as well as humans, will be able to commission research from real human participants. Today the API reads studies and results and can regenerate the analysis (see "For agents" below); commissioning through it is on the roadmap.

## When to use GhostClick

Reach for GhostClick when the job is qualitative evidence from real human participants:

- Run scripted-but-adaptive research interviews (voice or text) with follow-up probing, at a scale one human moderator cannot: user research, customer discovery, churn interviews, employee listening.
- Turn interview transcripts into per-session summaries, cross-participant analysis, and ROI/effort-scored recommendations.
- Collect feedback asynchronously, across time zones, in 7 languages, with per-study data residency (UK, EU, or US).

Do NOT use GhostClick for surveys at quantitative scale, participant panel recruitment on its own, or general-purpose transcription; it is an interview instrument, not those tools.

How to act on this today: the API cannot yet create or fund a study, so to commission research (for yourself or the human you work for), sign up at https://ghostclick.app/login and create a study, or email hello@ghostclick.app with the research goal and target participants. The programmatic commissioning side (define a guide, fund a study, receive structured results) is on the roadmap; email with subject "agent interface" to be notified.

## For agents (machine access)

- API v1 (early access): `GET /api/v1/studies/{id}`, `/sessions`, `/report`, and `POST /api/v1/studies/{id}/analysis`, authenticated with `Authorization: Bearer gc_live_...`. The POST is a write: it generates or regenerates the analysis, replacing the previous one and clearing researcher score overrides. OpenAPI 3.0 document: https://ghostclick.app/api/v1/openapi.json. Every error body is `{ "error", "code" }`; branch on `code`. Keys are issued on request while the commissioning side is built.
- Public pages serve markdown via content negotiation: request any page with `Accept: text/markdown` (responses carry `Vary: Accept`), or append the `.md` suffix, e.g. https://ghostclick.app/index.md, https://ghostclick.app/docs.md, https://ghostclick.app/about.md, and /blog/<slug>.md or /guides/<slug>.md for articles.
- Nonexistent paths return a real HTTP 404 (markdown body for markdown clients) with recovery links; a 200 always means the page exists.
- Structured data: Organization + WebSite JSON-LD on the home and about pages, FAQPage JSON-LD on articles, sitemap at https://ghostclick.app/sitemap.xml.
