First of all, I'm new to Reddit. I've been a ghost on this side of the internet for years. Just lurking, reading, observing… contributing absolutely nothing to society. And now I've returned to ask you for a favor. The audacity, I know.

Here's the situation: I'm working on a university entrepreneurship project where we're developing the concept for a theoretical skincare app 🧴✨ As part of the project, we need to run a survey to understand people's skincare habits, how they choose their face care products, and what actually matters to them.

Small issue: my group has the same level of coordination as a group project where everyone says "yeah, I'll do it tonight" and then mysteriously disappears for three weeks. 💀

The deadline is next week. The survey needs responses. And here I am, making my first Reddit post, hoping strangers on the internet will save my academic life.

So, if you have around 8 minutes to spare, I'd really appreciate it if you could fill it out! 🙏

👉 Survey: https://tally.so/r/BzOEYR

🇫🇷🇬🇧 Available in French and English
👤 Open to everyone aged 18+
🧴 Whether you have a 12-step skincare routine or your entire routine is washing your face and hoping for the best, your input counts. No right or wrong answers!

I have absolutely nothing to offer in return except my eternal gratitude and prayers to the universe for your future success, immaculate skin, financial prosperity, and legendary RNG in whatever game you play. 🍀✨

Help a brother out. One day, when you're in a crisis and need the kindness of random internet strangers, I hope the algorithm sends you someone who can help.

Thank you, beautiful people. ❤️

I was just curious—there are so many stereotypes in society about gender differences, and I wanted to know what the actual range of variation looks like.

Hi, I work at a fintech called Frank, and we're building an app that takes the stress out of money. We're hand-picking our Founding 1,000 members to help build it. They get a founder number, a real say, and free premium features for life in exchange for a bit of their time and feedback.

We are looking for individuals who are on top of everything except their money. Or who've started a money spreadsheet three times and still not used it?

Would really appreciate any intros or mentions (Saying "me" is allowed). The sign-up link to become part of the founding team is on the form at https://www.heyfrank.ai/

Hi [r/SampleSize](applewebdata://A48FD45F-0670-49C3-A4C1-15B031EF537C/r/Charlotte)! I’m a grad student at Notre Dame doing a research project on how people shop for deals. I’m looking for people in Charlotte who love finding good brands at great prices (TJ Maxx, Ross, Marshalls, bin stores, liquidation, anything). It’s a 20-30 min casual phone call. I’ll ask how you find deals, where you go, what makes a good one, and what’s frustrating about it. I’m not selling anything and your answers stay anonymous. If you’re interested, comment or DM me. Thanks!

Studying the impact of AI tools on product management work over the last 12 months. If you're responsible for product development/management, please fill in a 5 min survey about how AI impacts your work. If you're not responsible for product dev/management, I'd appreciate it very much if you could ask your PM to fill it in. Extra thanks for sharing/reposting for visibility. Here is the survey URL: https://www.votito.com/public/survey/?key=AXhG2dstTQexGuZDXv8C0KKTCqvrToNs_ccVJWTA2dgAZG2ebO-EVDxYd9JC1-sTYBg9HNr1BG93UD2Cgp6kkdOBXRKhLEizQPH15yf3whEhgnE0su16vgyOk4G9lJ_XHjaGCv5rRHwem1GnOQ&q=0

Hi everyone! 👋
I’m running a 4–5 minute UX survey about challenges and manual workarounds when working with documents.
Looking for people 18+ living in the US or Canada, currently employed, freelancing, or running a business, who work with files or documents at least weekly. Working students are welcome too!
No sign-in required. Thanks so much for your help! 🙏

Happy to swap surveys if eligible!

You work a nine-to-five and want to get fitter, but after work even deciding what workout to do feels like another job. You're a beginner or returning gym-goer: you overthink each session, try a few weeks, then stop because you can't tell whether it's working. Training at home could remove the travel and equipment costs, but you still need a clear routine and a way to see progress.

I'm researching this problem before building anything; nothing is for sale and no money is being requested.

If there was a 4-week home plan with a fixed workout each visit and a way to track progress, would you pay for it? What would make you buy it today?

Please explain the reason behind your answer, rather than just yes or no—for example, what you'd need to see in the progress log, exercise guidance or weekly structure. If free workouts already do the job for you, that reason is useful too. Think 20-minute sessions with no exercise equipment to buy.

For adults 18+ working full-time daytime hours. Reply here with your reason, or use the optional 3–5 minute survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeza9ntfLh8GcT6AZ7WXpjZXhi53xS5nJN9IYAYjysoyuuU9A/viewform

No names or email addresses are requested in the survey. This is commercial idea research; participation is voluntary.

Thank you for your time. If you can, please share this with others who might be willing to help.

I'm Brook, the founder of AttuneAI, a new AI-powered relationship app designed to help couples communicate better, work through conflict, and build stronger, healthier relationships.
After nearly a year of development, we're inviting a small group of couples to try our app for free before its public launch and help shape what we're building.

Here's what you'll get to try:

• Your own private AI relationship guide — A space to talk through feelings, understand patterns, gain perspective, and figure out how to approach difficult conversations.
• A real-time AI conflict facilitator — You and your partner can have guided conversations together, with an AI facilitator helping you both feel heard, communicate constructively, and work toward understanding.
• Fun activities to strengthen your relationship — Get-to-know-you games, daily connection exercises, appreciation prompts, and activities designed to bring you closer.
• Tools for long-term relationship growth — Explore your attachment styles, communication patterns, and ways to build a healthier connection together.

What we're asking in return:

• Try the app free for 2 weeks.
• Spend about 15 minutes exploring it a few times a week.
• Share your honest feedback through a short survey at the end.

Who can join?
Adults 18+ in the US or Canada with an iPhone. You can start exploring on your own and invite your partner whenever you're ready.

Interested in joining?
Sign up here: http://attuneai.app/beta?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=samplesize

We're building AttuneAI because we believe relationship support shouldn't only be something couples seek when things are falling apart. It should also help people stay connected, understand each other, and grow together.

I'd love to hear what you think, and I'm happy to answer any questions in the comments!

Full disclosure: I'm the founder of AttuneAI. This is a promotional beta recruitment post, which is why it's tagged as marketing.

Hey! I'm a solo dev building a closet app: you photograph your clothes once, and it generates outfits from what you already own, rates your fits, and tells you which single item would add the most to your wardrobe.

It's a very rough prototype right now, and I'd rather find out what's useless before building more. The form has a short demo GIF and takes about 3 minutes. No sign-up needed. Your phone number is optional and only for early access.

Happy to take part in your surveys too, drop them below.

Please enjoy a most absurd adventure 🙏🏻 I look forward to reading your reviews.

I would like to run a small experiment to see which of these sounds human-written or AI-written. One of them was written entirely by a human, and the other by an AI.

Passage 1:

Jack’s expression shifted by degrees, the corners of his mouth lifting as the pieces fell into place. “I am seeing what you are after. Now I am understanding.” He held the masked man’s gaze, studying him with an amusement that had grown a little too knowing. “Kindleton is presently needing more vials, is he not? And for one very peculiar purpose, I am supposing.”

The suspect’s jaw tightened beneath the mask. Whatever intrigue had lingered in his eyes vanished, replaced by open contempt. He leaned forward just enough to make his displeasure unmistakable. “I wouldn’t speak lightly of his motives if I were you, you pompous beak.” The words came low and clipped.

There was none of the usual haughty mockery in his voice, none of the elaborate taunting he had so far indulged in. This was a warning, and he seemed to expect Jack to recognize it as such.
Jack didn't flinch. He merely regarded the man in silence for a moment, his expression settling into something difficult to read.

Every one of the syndicate takes pride in their syndicate’s objective. Push him any further, and I may lose whatever chance there is of getting something useful out of him. His eyes narrowed slightly. The accusation he had been circling was still there, but certainty alone wouldn't make the man talk.

“Unfortunately, I am under no obligation to hand over even one batch,” he said, his voice as even as before. “And I am having no trust in your intentions.”

For a moment, neither man spoke. The suspect clicked his tongue, a sharp, irritated sound that broke the silence. He looked away, then back at Jack, as though searching for some overlooked weakness in the man’s composure. He had never expected the negotiation to be pleasant, but he had counted on getting something out of it.

He had come too far, taken too many risks, to leave empty-handed. His fingers curled against the edge of the table. No. He wasn't accepting that. He held his tongue for another second, weighing what little remained of his options. Then his jaw set, and his eyes narrowed behind the mask, fixing on Jack with renewed intensity. If the man wanted to make this difficult, so be it.

He would have to find another way.

Passage 2:

“I am seeing what you are after. Now I am understanding.” His gaze stayed locked on the masked man’s, edged with knowing amusement. “Kindleton is presently needing more vials, is he not? And for one very peculiar purpose, I am supposing.”

The suspect’s jaw tightened, the intrigue in his eyes curdling into contempt and indignation. “I wouldn’t speak lightly of his motives if I were you, you pompous beak.” The threat came out low and sharp, stripped of his usual haughty taunts.

“I am not remembering any pledge made to revere that man,” Jack replied, his voice calm and uncannily steady, his expression unreadable. Every one of the syndicate is taking pride in their syndicate’s objective. It would be foolish to taunt them any further. His eyes narrowed, distrust plain on his face.

“Unfortunately, I am under no obligation to hand over even one batch, and I am having no trust in your intentions,” he said.

The suspect went still, then clicked his tongue. He’d never expected the negotiation to go easily, yet he couldn’t shake the feeling of his options narrowing. He hadn’t gone to such lengths only to walk away from this transaction empty-handed, and he refused to accept it. He hesitated a second longer, jaw set, his eyes slitting with piercing intensity.

If you have a moment, I'd also like to know what structural or stylistic clues (word choice, pacing, etc.) gave it away.

Hi all. I work at Hot Takes, a consumer research company in India. This is a commercial study, not academic.

It asks how you use AI, how often, and what you think of it. Heavy users, occasional users and people who've barely tried it are all useful.

• Time: about 5 minutes
• Who: people living in India
• Reward: a ₹100 voucher for Amazon, Nykaa or District on completion. Not cash.

Happy to answer questions about the study in the comments.

Parents teach their children certain values, but social media exposes them to different opinions, trends, beliefs, and ways of behaving, whether they’re considered “right” or “wrong.” Do you think family teachings have the strongest influence, or is social media becoming more influential among children and teens?

Personally, I think it depends on how much time children and teens spend on social media and how openly they communicate with their families. What happens when they’re exposed to opinions online that contradict what they’re taught at home? Can social media sway their beliefs?

I’m open to hearing your opinions on this!

Also, I’m doing a survey for my psychology class about how social media and family teachings shape children’s and teens’ values and behaviours. Teens and young adults can share their experiences, and parents are welcome to pass it along to their teens! Participation is voluntary, and I’d appreciate your help.

I built LexiMap, a free site that maps answers to everyday questions by U.S. state and county.

This poll asks whether you're a cat person, a dog person, both, or neither:

https://www.leximap.fyi/q/cats-or-dogs?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=samplesize_cat_dog

Choose an answer, then use a U.S. ZIP code or browser location to place your response. No account is needed, and you can browse the results without voting.

These are voluntary, self-selected responses, so the results aren't a representative survey of the U.S.
