Nava vs Conveo: which AI interview platform fits a European team?

Conveo is the competitor people ask us about most in Europe, and for good reason: it is a strong, European-built AI research platform that runs interviews end to end in many languages. So this comparison is not about geography or language count, where both of us are strong. It comes down to two things: Nava Insights runs a live, real-time voice conversation and is fully self-serve with published $35-per-interview pricing, while Conveo is video-first, largely asynchronous, and accessed through a demo. If you are choosing between the two European options, that is where the decision actually sits.

At a glance

Where Nava is different (and where we are honest about parity)

Both platforms are European and both handle many languages well, so we are not going to claim a language or residency edge over Conveo the way it exists against US-based tools. Conveo is Belgium-based; if EU data residency is your requirement, ask both vendors for specifics, because this is a place where Conveo may well meet your needs too.

The real differences are:

Real-time voice vs video-first async. Nava is built around a live spoken conversation: the AI follows up in the moment on what was just said. Conveo's strength is video-first, largely asynchronous collection. For studies where the magic is in chasing the unexpected answer as it happens, especially complex B2B interviews, live voice probes in a way an asynchronous flow cannot. See why 70% of the insight lives in the follow-up.

Self-serve with transparent pricing. You can start a Nava study today without a sales call and pay $35 per completed interview, only for interviews that pass a quality check. Conveo is accessed through a demo and does not publish pricing.

Recruitment via Cint and Prolific. Nava puts a 300M+ panel one click away from a self-serve account. Conveo also covers recruitment as part of its end-to-end flow; the difference is the self-serve, instant-access model and the specific Cint plus Prolific reach.

Where Conveo is strong

Conveo is a capable, European, end-to-end platform with broad language coverage and a polished video-first experience. If your research is better served by asynchronous video and you are comfortable with a demo-led purchase, it is an excellent option and a fair competitor.

When to choose which

Choose Nava if you want live real-time voice, self-serve access with per-interview pricing, and Cint plus Prolific recruitment. Choose Conveo if video-first asynchronous research fits your studies and a sales-led purchase is fine.
