To achieve these objectives, the company recognizes the necessity of addressing fraud through various approaches, often turning to experts dedicated to creating solutions for specific challenges in the survey and sample sector.

One unresolved issue pertained to the deduplication of respondents, ensuring that the same individual did not participate in the same survey multiple times. For instance, clients often engage respondents through multiple providers, increasing the likelihood of duplicate entries with no way of knowing this was happening before it was too late. When this does happen, there is waste at the end of the survey, as some responses have to be eliminated during data cleaning. In addition, duplication negatively impacts respondent experiences, as people may unwittingly take the same survey twice, spending unnecessary time for which they don't receive a reward. TheoremReach required a real-time, automated solution to prevent such occurrences.
