Turn Consumer Perception Into Your Strongest Marketing Asset

A great product isn't enough if the words describing it don't connect. Claims testing is the research process that identifies which messages truly resonate with your target consumers, and provides the substantiation data to back them up. At Peekage, we help brands find the claims that drive real purchase intent, not just the ones that sound good in a boardroom.

  • Test multiple claim options against real consumers in your target market
  • Identify which messages drive the highest purchase intent and brand trust
  • Gather legally defensible substantiation data before going to market
  • Eliminate guesswork from your packaging, advertising, and launch copy
  • Prioritize the handful of claims that actually shift consumer behavior

The Real Advantages of Running Claims Testing Before Launch

Consumer-Validated, Not Committee-Approved

Internal teams are too close to the product. Claims testing service replaces opinion debates with actual data from the people who will be buying, giving your launch decisions a foundation that internal alignment never can.

Consumer-Validated, Not Committee-Approved

Defensible Data When It Matters Most

Claims substantiation is the process of ensuring supporting evidence is in place for statements made in advertisements, point-of-sale materials, sales brochures, and product packaging.

Defensible Data When It Matters Most

Clarity Before You're Committed

Packaging reprints, campaign overhauls, and product recalls are expensive. Running claims testing before locking in production decisions costs a fraction of fixing a messaging mistake after launch.

Clarity Before You're Committed

Works Across Every Stage of the Product Lifecycle

Claims testing isn't just a pre-launch tool. If you're refreshing an existing product, entering a new market, or repositioning a brand, testing your messaging against current consumer expectations keeps you relevant at every stage.
