Rally UXR

AI can’t own your research – but it can help. So how do you cut through the hype and build a Research Ops strategy that actually scales, delivers quality, and turns insights into action for your whole team?

Join us on **Wednesday, May 28th at 2pm EST** for a bold conversation with Mahad Bullo (Staff UX Researcher at Included Health), Oren Friedman (Co-founder and CEO at Rally) and Prayag Narula (Co-founder and CEO at Marvin) as they dig into the future of research and what’s working.

What to expect:

🔥 A vision for launching and scaling self-serve research across UX and product teams

🧠 How AI is supercharging research ops, and where it misses the mark

🛠️ A run-through of Rally and Marvin's new integration

🎤 Live AMA. Bring your questions about what it takes to scale research right

*👉 Rally and Marvin help teams unlock self-serve research from participant recruit to insights and analysis. If you're a product or UX leader tired of research bottlenecks (and AI hype), this one’s for you.*


How UX leaders turn user insights into product impact

**What’s behind a high-impact research practice? Often, it’s governance quietly ensuring the right people have the right access at the right time, with the guardrails to move confidently and responsibly.**

Governance is one of the most important **—** and most misunderstood **—** aspects of scaling research. It’s not just about legal compliance. It’s about enabling access, protecting quality, and making sure your research efforts actually support business goals. 

In this AMA with [Jared Forney](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaredforney/), Research Operations Principal at Okta, we’re breaking down the invisible systems behind research: the guardrails, workflows, and permissions that shape who gets to do what, how data is tracked, and how it rolls up to your company’s OKRs. 

Whether you’re looking to enable self-serve research, build stronger governance practices, or align your research efforts with the broader business, this session will give you the clarity and language to lead with confidence. 

**Join us as we dive into:**

🧩 What governance really means in a research context (hint: it’s not just legal compliance)

🔐 Balancing access and control in democratized research environments

🔑 How to manage participation and access without increasing risk

🛠️ Building systems that support scale, not just control

📊 How governance structures enable better metrics and reporting

🤝 Making governance approachable, understandable, & adoption-friendly

⚙️ How governance powers enablement and responsible democratization

🖐 Your questions!

You’ll leave this AMA with a clearer understanding of how to use governance as a level, not a limitation, for scaling meaningful, measurable, and safe research. 


AMA with Jared: How governance fuels enablement, adoption, & impact

How do you measure the impact of research? It’s a question that comes up again and again, and one that ReOps and research leaders are increasingly being asked to answer.

Whether you’re just starting to define success criteria or looking to refine your approach, this session will be packed with practical advice and lessons from the field.

Join us as we unpack:

📊 The best metrics for Research and ReOps teams to track and why

AMA with Pedro: Making research count — metrics that matter

Research shouldn't be a bottleneck for PMs and designers—it should be a launchpad. But how do you build a successful self-serve research program that enables PMs and designers to scale testing without sacrificing quality?
