Expected Parrot lets teams simulate customer reactions with AI agents, then compare those results with human responses in the same workflow. The buyer decision is whether simulation can narrow a research question or test a message before a team spends time and money on a full human study.

## What it does

Expected Parrot offers an open-source library and a no-code web app for designing agent personas, running surveys or interviews with an LLM of the user's choice, caching results, and producing reports. The platform is aimed at pricing, product, messaging, policy, and communications scenarios, with a human-survey path for validation ([YC profile](https://www.ycombinator.com/companies/expected-parrot); [YC launch](https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Ol2-expected-parrot-simulate-your-customers-with-ai-agents)).
