What is UX Research?
UX Research partners handle the planning and execution required to improve outcomes over time. They map requirements, coordinate resources, and deliver work in measurable phases. Agencies also help define KPIs so progress can be tracked with consistency. A successful engagement includes regular reviews, documented learnings, and iterative optimization so results improve as more data is collected. The overall aim is to reduce ambiguity and provide a dependable workflow for long-term performance.
