About

UserTesting is a human insight platform providing on-demand access to targeted panelists who record their screen and voice while completing tasks on websites, apps, and prototypes — enabling product, UX, marketing, and research teams to watch real users navigate their products and hear authentic reactions within hours rather than weeks. Listed on NYSE (NYSE: USER) before being acquired by Thoma Bravo private equity in 2023 for approximately $1.3 billion, UserTesting is headquartered in San Francisco and serves thousands of companies including Apple, Salesforce, Microsoft, and Walmart for rapid user research.\n\nUserTesting's platform enables teams to recruit from a panel of over 2 million contributors globally, filtered by demographic characteristics, and have them complete structured tasks while recording their screen, voice, and facial expressions. Researchers receive video clips sorted by predefined test metrics within hours, rather than waiting weeks to schedule in-person usability studies. Machine learning tools analyze videos to identify emotional reactions, sentiment, and task completion rates across participants.\n\nIn 2025, UserTesting competes in the user research and experience insight market against Maze (prototype testing), Lookback (live user interview platform), Hotjar (behavioral analytics), and Medallia (enterprise experience management). The user research market has consolidated as companies invest in continuous discovery practices rather than periodic research sprints. UserTesting's acquisition by Thoma Bravo and combination with UserZoom (another Thoma Bravo portfolio company) created a more comprehensive research platform covering both unmoderated video testing and moderated live interview capabilities. The 2025 strategy focuses on the combined UserTesting-UserZoom platform, expanding AI-powered insight synthesis from video research, and growing enterprise adoption of continuous research practices.

About

BuildSafe is a Stockholm-based construction safety management platform that digitizes safety inspections, incident reporting, risk assessments, and compliance documentation for construction contractors and project owners. The company was founded on the observation that construction remains one of the most injury-prone industries globally, yet safety management processes at many construction firms still rely on paper forms, spreadsheets, and email—creating documentation gaps that expose workers to risk and companies to regulatory and legal liability. BuildSafe provides a mobile-first platform that enables foremen and safety managers to conduct digital safety rounds, log near-misses and incidents, manage action items, and generate audit-ready safety reports from the job site.\n\nBuildSafe's inspection and observation workflows are configurable to the specific risk profiles of different construction activities—scaffolding, heavy lifting, excavation, electrical work, and confined space entry each carry distinct hazard profiles requiring tailored checklists. The platform allows safety managers to create custom inspection templates aligned with national safety regulations and company-specific standards, and tracks completion rates and outstanding corrective actions across multiple job sites simultaneously. When a hazardous condition is observed or an incident occurs, BuildSafe routes the report to the appropriate responsible party with automated follow-up reminders until the corrective action is documented as resolved.\n\nBuildSafe operates primarily in the European market, where construction safety regulation is increasingly stringent under EU directives and national frameworks, and has particular strength in the Nordic countries where construction digitalization has advanced rapidly. The company targets mid-market and large general contractors, infrastructure developers, and public sector project owners. BuildSafe competes with Assignar, Salus Technologies, and Procore's safety module in the construction safety management software segment, differentiating on its European regulatory alignment and its mobile-first design for field-based safety teams.
