About Zintro
Zintro is an expert network headquartered in Boston, MA. The firm delivers regular expert network services primarily to US-based clients, with a team primarily based in the Philippines and India, thus keeping operating costs lower than entirely US-based peers.
Zintro was originally conceived as a fully self-service platform, with no human intermediation between clients and experts. In the founder's own words, "the technology worked extremely well," but clients also wanted more help qualifying experts, scheduling calls, handling compliance, and paying experts - so the company pivoted to a dual model, adding trained remote teams in the Philippines and India to provide full-service support at a lower cost than entirely US-based competitors. Today, clients can still use Zintro on a self-service basis, posting projects and reviewing expert responses directly, or opt for full-service support comparable to firms like GLG or AlphaSights, typically at a 30-75% lower cost.
In a similar vein, Inex One also helps clients reduce overhead - not by lowering the cost of any single expert network, but by consolidating access to 20+ networks under one contract, one compliance workflow, and one dashboard, cutting the administrative burden of managing multiple vendor relationships.
Zintro has a public website where it posts part of the projects it covers. Experts can apply to these projects and pitch their own relevance. According to the website, Zintro has a database of 150,000 curated experts around the world. Beyond standard consultations, services include telephone and in-depth interviews, focus groups, surveys, in-person and asynchronous research, and staffing/recruiting support, serving healthcare, technology, finance, and consumer goods clients, among others.
