sensory evaluation applications
  • quality control

your best ally to track the sensory characteristics of your product, detect defects and understand the variation of your product.

  •  research & development

it helps you understand the mechanisms of perception of the stimuli of your product, as well as its acceptability.

  • marketing

streamline the commercial approach by testing preference and acceptability with consumer, allowing comparisons with products of your competition.

FIZZ versions 

FIZZ lab

  • formerly known as Fizz Network

  • available in Offline mode, which does not require an internet connection

  • it is the most powerful and fastest solution for tests on computers that share the same network. It is recommended for established places such as a sensory evaluation laboratory.

  • provides the possibility to run different tests in different booths, as well as several tests at the same time allowing the judge to choose the test or establish an order.

  • stop the session in all the terminals of your cabins at the same time or select them independently.

  • monitor the progress of each terminal from the supervisor window.

  • the collected data is instantly available for analysis through FIZZ Calculations.

FIZZ forms

  • for paper tests with automatic reading through a scanner.

  • you can take your tests anywhere, no hardware is needed to apply them. just pen and paper.

  • it is possible to combine different types of questions in the same test and include images as characteristics of a product.

  • fast scanning: a scan report is generated that gives warnings about missing or invalid answers.

  • the results of each scanned page are immediately accessible for analysis through FIZZ calculations.

  • possibility of placing a space for the judge or consumer to write comments by hand and then code them to analyze them as multiple choice questions.

FIZZ nomad

  • formerly known as Fizz Web

  • available in Offline mode, which does not require an internet connection

  • run tests through the Internet.

  • easy to share with your judge or consumer. You can generate automatic invitations to send by email..

  • ranking: Friedman and Page tests, Round Robin (multiple pairs).

  • CATA and multiple choice questions: frequencies, bar and pie plots, chi-square tests, binomial tests, factorial correspondence analysis (FCA), open questions that can be coded and analyzed as multiple choice questions.

  • temporal methods: time-intensity, temporal dominance of sensations (TDS) y TCATA.

  • advanced statistical methods: Multivariate analysis, Principal component analysis (PCA), cluster analysis, preference mapping (internal and external), FCA, PCA horizontal with multifactor analysis (MFA) and STATIS penalty analysis.

FIZZ database

  • store and administrate all your historical data – dates, products, judges, sessions, repetitions, and their details.

  • extract activity statistics such as the number of times each judge has participated, duration of tests, where and how often a product is used, clients, sample information and much more!
