Using a personalized approach to collecting information to improve outcomes, Digital Empathy transforms the data collection process using surveys, assessments, and screeners to prioritize the needs of different populations.


Why is Digital Empathy important?
Organizations depend on accurate, comprehensive and actionable data to perform. Digital Empathy improves the breadth and quality of data by transforming transactional relationships into deeper ongoing trusting relationships.
Whereas generic data collection approaches focus on the needs of the data collector, Digital Empathy prioritizes:
- People being engaged
- People that use the data
- People that make strategic decisions
Challenges with the Current System
Generic Data Collection Challenges
A one-size-fits-all approach often results in low uptake and poor quality data.
Data Quality
Especially when collecting specific data.
Stigmatizing Information
Delicate topics like sexual health, drugs and alcohol, or mental health.
Low Literacy Levels
Resulting in poor understanding of information requested.
Language Barriers
Socio-cultural language barriers, heavy use of jargon.
Accessibility
For cognitive, physical, or other disabilities.
Trust
Particularly with hard-to-reach populations.
Principles of Digital Empathy
Digital Empathy screeners, surveys, and assessments go above and beyond generic survey platforms. There are four principles of Digital Empathy: Engage, Entrust, Encourage, and Empower. Through frictionless, satisfying, effective design that balances efficacy with efficiency, each design element with Tickit contributes to a Digitally Empathetic experience for beneficiaries.
