The partnership represents a paradigm shift in how research about shows, characters, plot lines and other topics is performed. CBS Television City Research Center, the company’s world-class consumer research and analytics facility in Las Vegas, currently conducts over 6,000 individual surveys during pilot-testing alone. The integration enables CBS to replace the traditionally time-consuming hand-coding of survey responses with the lightning speed of automation, a move that increases the number of insights that can be obtained and opens up the ability to contextualize survey responses in an unprecedented fashion.

Using Canvs Surveys, CBS can now more meaningfully understand how its audiences think and feel about content so it can accurately measure the efficacy of ads and benchmark future programs’ successes.
