What is Connect?
Connect is a task matching feature that’s available by invitation, and only in the UK. It lets you connect your YouTube account to Curious Cat. Once connected, the app securely collects data about the ads you see on YouTube for market research purposes. For example, the title of an advert you saw and how long you watched it.
In return, you’ll be matched to fun, high-paying tasks based on the ads you’ve viewed. It's one of the easiest ways to maximise your points and qualify for our most interesting tasks.
The data you provide helps our research clients understand things like:
- Which ads are people actually seeing
- Whether those ads are being remembered
- How different types of content affect viewers' attention
Connect exists because traditional market research techniques can be prone to human error. Even when you answer survey questions honestly, you might not remember exactly which adverts you’ve seen. Connect solves this by collecting behavioural data directly – so we can provide more reliable market research insights to our clients – and in turn offer you more relevant, high-paying tasks.
Can I disconnect later?
Yes! You can disconnect your YouTube account anytime – it only takes two clicks (literally).
How to disconnect your YouTube account:
- Use this link to open your Connect page.
- Tap Connected next to the YouTube logo.
