Run Gather research from Claude and ChatGPT

What you get

• A report link right away. It shows live progress, then the finished report.
• A branded report: the headline answer, key findings, which option your audience chose, themes in their own words, quotes, and what to test next.
• An email with the report when it is ready.
• The full study as a project in your Gather workspace, with every interview.

Reports with 10 interviews take about 10 minutes; reports with 30 interviews (the default) take about 16 minutes.

Tools

Accounts, workspaces and limits

• You sign in with your work email and choose one of your Gather workspaces.
• Reports run in that workspace as you, and each one adds a project there.
• Each person can start up to 10 reports per workspace per day.
• Disconnect Gather in your app at any time.

For developers

Agents can use a Gather API key instead of signing in. Workspace admins create keys in Gather under Settings > API keys. Send the key to the same server URL:

Authorization: Bearer gk_live_...

For a client that only takes a URL, add the key to it: https://synthetic.gatherhq.com/api/v1/mcp?gatherApiKey=gk_live_.... Anyone with that URL can use the key, so keep it private.

Data and privacy

Gather receives the inputs your assistant sends to these tools, your sign-in email and the workspace you choose. It does not receive your conversation. Sign-in codes and tokens are stored only as secure hashes. See the privacy policy and terms of service. Questions: hi@gobeheard.com.

Support

Email mayank@gatherhq.com for help with sign-in, workspaces or a report. If it is about a report, include its link or id (it starts with rpt_).
