## About the vendor

- **Company**: m-Path Software

## Commercial Context

- **Starting Price**: EUR 2,099.00
- **Pricing model**: Flat Rate (Free version available)
- **Pricing Details**: m-Path uses a tiered, subscription-based pricing structure designed around how researchers typically scale intensive longitudinal studies. At the entry level, there is a free plan intended for pilots and small feasibility work. This tier allows up to roughly 50 participants per year and already includes the core infrastructure such as survey building, scheduling, basic visualization, and data export. The purpose is not just demonstration but genuine trialing, so researchers can run a real study before committing budget.

From there, paid licenses are structured primarily along three dimensions: number of participants, level of collaboration and support, and the number of projects or users. The Essential tier is the first paid level and is positioned for single-study use without hands-on support. Pricing typically starts around €1,599 per year for approximately 300 participants and scales upward with sample size. It includes the full EMA / ESM infrastructure such as flexible scheduling, participant management, and advanced exports, but assumes that the research team can operate independently using documentation.

The Standard tier adds a collaborative layer and is aimed at research groups rather than individual projects. Pricing starts around €2,099 per year for a similar participant volume. In addition to everything in Essential, it supports multiple projects, multiple user accounts, and includes priority email support. This is the level most labs move to when running concurrent studies or when multiple researchers need access to the same environment.

The highest standard tier is Comfort, which is designed for complex or high-stakes studies where methodological guidance and technical support matter. Pricing starts around €3,099 per year and increases with scale. Beyond the platform itself, this tier includes direct interaction such as online meetings, troubleshooting, study design feedback, and typically a yearly workshop. This reflects a shift from software access to a more consultative partnership model, which is particularly relevant for consortia or clinical implementations.

A critical aspect of the pricing model is that the core license provides the infrastructure, while advanced capabilities are modular and priced as add-ons. These add-ons reflect the methodological breadth of the platform. For example, mobile cognitive tasks are typically priced around €4,500, sensing functionality ranges from roughly €3,000 for assessment-based sensing to around €10,000 for continuous background sensing, and EMI or JITAI functionality is around €6,000. Additional modules such as smartwatch integration, API access, advanced feedback dashboards, or white-label applications each come with their own pricing, often in the range of €3,000 to €10,000. Custom development and consulting are quoted separately.

This leads to a pricing logic where the base subscription covers data collection and management, while add-ons determine the methodological sophistication of the study. As a result, total cost is not just a function of sample size, but of design complexity. A straightforward EMA study may remain relatively low-cost, whereas a study combining passive sensing, cognitive tasks, and real-time interventions can scale substantially.

The software enables researchers to capture real-time moment-to-moment data from participants in natural environments rather than relying on retrospective or cross-sectional methods. The platform serves academic institutions, research centers, and clinical research organizations in behavioral science, psychology, health research, and related fields requiring repeated measurements in real-world settings. The system has been adopted by more than two hundred fifty universities worldwide and has facilitated more than one hundred fifty thousand app downloads and seven million completed surveys across ten thousand dashboard projects.\nThe platform provides an extensive feature set accessible through a point-and-click interface in the online researcher dashboard and requires no coding expertise for core functionality. Researchers can design mobile surveys, interventions, and cognitive tasks with advanced survey logic and customizable scheduling options. The system supports multiple data collection approaches including time-based sampling, participant-initiated responses via interactive elements, and context-triggered assessments based on sensing data. Ecological Momentary Intervention and Just-In-Time Adaptive Intervention capabilities enable delivery of personalized mobile interventions at precisely defined moments in daily life. Validated mobile cognitive tests can be administered repeatedly to capture fluctuations in cognitive capacity. Participant management tools allow enrollment via unique invitation codes, real-time monitoring of progress and response rates, automated reminders, and integration of gamification elements to promote compliance. The platform also includes visual feedback tools, daily diary functionality, and an analysis dashboard offering preconfigured case analyses alongside bulk data export in structured comma separated values format for use with external statistical software.\nThe platform supports passive mobile sensing and wearable device integration, allowing collection of sensor data from smartphones and triggering of surveys or interventions based on detected behavioral patterns and contextual shifts. Sensing-based trigger logic enables study designs in which assessments occur in response to specific environmental conditions, activities, or physiological states rather than predetermined time intervals. The system accommodates extended data collection periods, with researchers collecting continuous sensor data over months or years of longitudinal study.\nAdvanced users can embed custom code into questionnaires to construct complex conditional survey designs tailored to specific research requirements. The software architecture prioritizes privacy by design, with secure data processing and storage compliant with General Data Protection Regulation and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act regulations and without requiring collection of identifiable participant information. As a spin-off from a university research group in quantitative psychology and individual differences, m-Path draws on over ten years of experience in mobile intensive longitudinal data collection and retains a commitment to continuous innovation in the mobile assessment landscape.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/c781d2fe-8182-45e9-8d4f-9c030895a80f.png","url":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2085712/m-path","@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2085712/m-path#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/#organization"},"applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","offers":{"price":"2099","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"EUR"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2085712/m-path#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Data Collection Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/707/data-collection/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"m-Path","position":3,"item":"/software/2085712/m-path","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
