Every respondent,
inside the story.
GUTTR turns surveys into comics. People answer by counting, drawing, speaking or pointing, and researchers get clean, exportable data.

Meaning happens in the gutter. So do the best answers.
The space between panels shapes how a story is read. A shift, a tilt, an overlap: each changes the rhythm and the meaning we make. Respondents tally, draw, speak and point inside the story, while researchers keep rigorous, exportable data.
