Anagram Research is a full service user research micro consultancy

Working across industries and sectors, we inspire and guide our clients to design innovative, user centered products and services.

Our actionable insights and recommendations are based on robust primary or secondary research, and crafted out of a deep understanding about user needs, behaviors and the socio-cultural context.

Our research insights have been used to improve existing customer experiences and to inspire new ideas and innovation.

Anagram Research draws upon a broad range of globally practiced research approaches and methods that can be used at different stages of the design process.

Tapping our extensive experience in user research, we often tweak our toolkit to come up with out-of-the-box approaches that best suit the research goal or are localized to the cultural context.
