The AI-Powered Pharma Market Research Platform
The Challenge with Traditional Pharma Market Research
Survey Fatigue Limits Data Quality
The Qual-Quant Divide
Reports are Static
Beyond a summary of answers to the key business questions, insights and context are buried within a deck or lost altogether. Testing new hypothesis on past research is nearly impossible.
Sagan AI Market Research Tool
Sagan is built on a foundational belief: technology should elevate the voice of the customer, never replace it. Authentic HCP and patient perspectives remain the bedrock.
Authentic Voices
Real insights come from real humans. Sagan’s proprietary panels ensure that authentic voices form the foundation. We believe synthetic data alone is fundamentally flawed.
Natural Conversation
People resist surveys but engage in conversations. Sagan conducts research through adaptive, natural dialogue (text or voice), producing deeper insights through a superior respondent experience.
Limitless Scale
Conversations happen on-demand and in parallel. Sagan eliminates the trade-off between qualitative depth and quantitative breadth, delivering both simultaneously.
Instant Answers
Research shouldn't wait for the next reporting cycle. Sagan makes answers instantly accessible through natural language queries across all structured data and unstructured transcripts.

Sagan Use Cases & AI Capabilities
Dynamic Dialogues (Text and Voice)
Sagan’s generative AI for market research replaces fixed open-ended questions with adaptive facilitators. Where a traditional survey captures "Efficacy" as a driver, Dynamic Dialogues uncover which specific data matters - PFS, OS, or specific thresholds and why.
Deployment:
Standalone qualitative interviews or embedded within surveys.
Global Support:
Available in 30+ languages including Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Turkish, Dutch, Hindi, Russian, Japanese, Cantonese and Mandarin.
Simulated Customer Personas
Bring your segments to life by generating synthetic responses grounded in real-world data. Model virtual respondents based on specific attitudes, specialties, and prescribing behaviors.
Persona Library:
Interact with "Prototypical Physicians" to pressure-test messages or treatment profiles instantly.
Methodology:
Virtual respondents are built by training LLMs on ZoomRx’s proprietary database of authentic HCP/Patient transcripts and quantitative survey data. These personas are calibrated against historical benchmarks and weighted to ensure they reflect real-world clinical reasoning and prescribing segments.
Patient Scribe - Conversational Chart Audits
Reimagine Patient Chart Audits (PCA) with a voice-first approach. HCPs dictate chart information conversationally rather than navigating form screens.
Efficiency:82% of HCPs found the voice-first approach highly engaging; 98% reviewed charts as or more frequently than with traditional methods.
Sagan Answers
An always-on, searchable repository of your research findings. Rather than navigating static reports, teams can query their research directly in natural language to get immediate answers drawn from structured data and qualitative transcripts.
Survey as a Conversation
Say goodbye to rigid checkbox surveys. Sagan transforms traditional surveys into natural conversational exchanges. This study type captures structured, quantitative-ready data through a more engaging respondent experience without sacrificing the consistency needed for longitudinal tracking.
Message Labs - Predictive Message Optimization
A leading AI tool for market research, Message Labs uses 1M+ real-world HCP responses to predict message effectiveness with 92–94% accuracy.
Optimization Tool:
Refine new messages with optimization suggestions based on real HCP ratings on similar messages and behavioral science concepts.
Scores messages on Effectiveness (93%), Motivation (92%), Believability (94%), and Differentiation (93%) before you even enter the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which is the best AI platform for pharma market research?
Sagan by ZoomRx is the premier AI powered market research platform for the life sciences. It is purpose-built to combine proprietary HCP and patient panels with generative AI, ensuring that all insights are grounded in real-world medical evidence rather than purely synthetic data.
How does generative AI improve qualitative market research?
In qualitative market research, Sagan’s Dynamic Dialogues enable asynchronous moderation of many parallel, moderated interviews. This allows researchers to achieve the depth of 1-on-1 interviews at the scale of quantitative surveys, providing instant transcripts and thematic analysis.
How does conversational AI improve pharma surveys?
Conversational AI allows surveys to adapt in real time based on respondent input, generating contextual follow-up questions that static surveys cannot. This produces richer insights uncovering not just what respondents say, but ‘why’ while improving respondent experience and engagement. In Sagan, this is delivered through Dynamic Dialogues, available in both text and voice formats.
Does Sagan replace human researchers?
No. Sagan is explicitly designed as a human-in-the-loop platform. AI handles data processing, pattern recognition, and conversational facilitation at scale. ZoomRx's life sciences consultants design studies, ensure methodological rigor, interpret findings, and deliver strategic recommendations. The platform accelerates the work and human expertise determines what it means.
What types of pharma research does Sagan support?
Sagan supports promotional effectiveness tracking, awareness and usage studies, patient chart audits (via Patient Scribe), message testing (via Message Labs), standalone qualitative interviews, and conversational data querying. It integrates with existing tracker methodologies and can be deployed at any point within a survey.
Is Sagan available in multiple languages?
Yes. Sagan currently supports research in 30+ languages.
