About Us
Our Background
Professional online studies become more and more popular in both academia and other types of research. Our team has a strong scientific background and we have conducted several online studies ourselves during our own PhDs. However, until LabVanced was lauched in 2018, no online platform was yet able to combine all the advantages of online research into one single application. This is essentially what Labvanced is today, an all-in-one solution for web based research.
Over the last 3 years Labvanced improved and was extended dramatically, such that today our platform enables researchers to design the most professional and complex web based studies with the ease of a graphical interface. With our technology you can perform precise behavioral (decision making, reation times, video recordings,...) and physiological measurements (eye tracking, pulse measurement, emotion detection), share and collaborate with your colleages, use crowdsourcing to recruit thousands of subjects, and a lot more.
»Our Goal is to be the internet platform where the most professional and ambitious online studies are created.«

Tobiasz Kaduk
Researcher and Programmer
Tobiasz graduated Computer Engineering at Solent University. Currently, he is a PhD student in the European school of the network neuroscience at the Institute of Cognitive Science, The University of Osnabrück. His job position is a part of the Marie Curie grant which we participate together with more than 10 top international Universities. At Scicovery, he is responsible for the research and front end development.
[email protected]Our Technology
Combining study design, recording and analysis into one software solution together with the possibilities of an online service, offers scientists as well as market and product researchers enormous advantages. With our software, study design will be much more efficient as people can share and reuse the design of existing studies or experiments. Our software offers the potential to design studies from simple to arbitrary complexity, all without the need to program a single line of code! After publishing the study directly on our website, participant data can be acquired much faster and cheaper compared to lab based recordings . Besides online participant recruitment and participation by experimenter's invitation, we can recruit special focus groups by database search and also offer build in crowdsourcing capabilities (i.e. Amazon Mechanical Turk). In the future, we will also provide automated analysis and data visualizations, which will increase the speed of your publication or market research.
