The agency we wanted didn’t exist, so we built it.

After 20 years in qualitative research, we’d seen it all—professional participants who jump from session to session, reports bloated with jargon, and insights polished to impress, not inform.

So we built Syncretic. To recruit real people, cut through the noise, and deliver insights that don’t just sound smart, they mean something.

We’ve reclaimed ethical research, with both head and heart. We speak to real consumers, not ideal ones.

We question what others take for granted and uncover what truly drives change. We start with deep interviews, because we notice and listen to what others overlook. That’s where human insights are born: uncomfortable, honest, and actionable. Because meaningful change doesn’t sugarcoat, it solves real problems.

When disaster strikes, Mexicans often surprise the world with how quickly we manage to help those in need. That spirit of solidarity is part of our DNA.

The challenge? Too many possibilities, no clear path forward, and limited resources to make it happen.

Fewer students and too many questions.

The College of Lacanian Psychoanalysis noticed a drop in enrollment for its postgraduate programs. But they had no clear answers. Had the student profile changed? The perceived value? The competition? That’s why they reached out — so we could listen, understand, and turn doubt into a corrective strategy.
