UX’s future: Multi-agent research platforms - Interview with John Provine, Voicepanel
In episode 34 of Brilliant’s AI for UX video series dedicated to emerging AI tools for UX research, we interviewed John Provine, Co-Founder & CEO at Voicepanel. John explains how Voicepanel embeds research into product workflows with customizable AI agents and continuous discovery, redefining how teams learn from users.
“We’re opening up [agentic] system prompts to customers … there’s no one-size-fits-all moderator. ”
Voicepanel is an AI-powered research platform that automates recruiting, interviewing, and thematic synthesis—making continuous, high-quality insights instantly accessible.
Key topics and takeaways from this AI 4 UX conversation include John’s view on:
Embedded, Continuous Research: AI enables research to scale with modern product velocity, from tactical to strategic, without increasing headcount.
Configurable AI Agents for Research: Voicepanel's shift to configurable agents signals a future where research tools adapt to different user bases and org styles.
Synthetic Personas with Traceable Evidence: AI turns traditional UX outputs (personas, themes, quotes) into living systems that are searchable, queryable, and reusable.
