User research and eye-tracking, London & UK

See your experience through your users' eyes

ShopSight helps organisations understand how people really see, navigate and experience their websites, products and spaces. We find what people notice, where they struggle and what stops them acting, then turn it into clear, prioritised changes.

The blind spot

What people say and what they do are rarely the same thing.

Analytics show you where people drop off. Surveys tell you what people think they did. Neither shows you the moment itself: the button nobody noticed, the sign that blended into the background, the hesitation before someone gave up.

ShopSight studies real people as they use your experience, so you can see behaviour and attention as they happen rather than guess at them afterwards.

Questions we help answer

Why are users abandoning the checkout at the same step?
Is the new homepage guiding people where we want them to go?
Does anyone notice the promotion we've invested in?
Why does a product sell well online but not in store?
Is our prototype ready to launch, or will users get stuck?

What we do

Research for every place people interact with you.

Every project starts with your question, not a method. We choose the right mix of usability testing, observation and eye-tracking to answer it.

Digital experience research

Understand how people navigate your website, app or platform, where they struggle, and what stops them completing their goals.

Useful when you want to know:
  • Where and why users drop out of sign-up or checkout
  • Whether a design or prototype works before you build it
  • Which content and calls to action people notice, and which they skip
Usability testing, remote and in person, prototype testing, eye-tracking

Physical experience research

Explore how people interact with spaces, products and real-world experiences, from retail environments to events and social settings.

Useful when you want to know:
  • Which areas of your store draw people in, and which are invisible
  • Whether packaging, signage or displays stand out at the moment of choice
  • How visitors move through an event or venue
Wearable eye-tracking, accompanied journeys, observation, interviews

Connected experience research

Follow people across the line between online and offline, where most real journeys now happen.

Useful when you want to know:
  • How behaviour differs between your website and your store
  • Whether kiosks, screens and self-checkouts help or confuse
  • Where click-and-collect and omnichannel journeys break down
The same journey, studied across both environments

Our signature method: eye-tracking

Go beyond what people say. See what they actually look at.

People can't always explain why they missed something, because they never noticed it in the first place. Eye-tracking records where attention lands, what gets overlooked and how long people hesitate, then connects it to what they did next.

We use lightweight wearable glasses, so the same method works on a phone screen, a supermarket shelf or an event floor. It can be added to any digital, physical or connected study.
