echo_mobilemSurvey believes research driven innovation is central to the growth of an economy and by maximizing on the potential of the mobile phone and empowering the individual, Grifith says they have created a tool that allows anyone to conduct their own research. The firm uses large scale SMS (Text Message) mobile surveys and interactive mobile applications to collect, visualize, and represent data across emerging markets. mSurvey solves the problem of connecting with difficult to reach communities to assess, impact and follow community trends in real time.

Developed at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) connect directly to all telecommunication and network providers, enabling the connection between our clients and their customers, mSurvey makes sense of SMS data through a wide variety of automated interactive experiences on any mobile phone, which allows data collection from real people, in real place, in real time; bringing data to life. However, mSurvey is not launching in a virgin field.

Echo Mobile, a Web-based platform for SMS launched in Nairobi in 2010 says organizations use their product to communicate, collect, and respond to their clients and survey respondents. Formerly known as mSwali, Echo Mobile  clients have send over 500,000 SMS to extend their reach and give voice to markets and communities across Kenya.

mSurvey and Echo Mobile will have to show their best for users and market share.
