Sentry’s default templates are designed to give researchers flexibility based on project goals, balancing data quality and respondent traffic at different levels of stringency. Each template is optimized for a distinct use case, allowing you to choose the level of screening that best fits your study requirements.

In addition to these defaults, Sentry can be customized with tailored templates to align with specific quality thresholds, risk tolerance, or audience needs.

Template Overview

• Titanium+ (6Q Libraries with Open-End) delivers the highest level of data quality – greatly improving open-end quality within your data set.
• Titanium+ (5Q Libraries) balances strong quality protection with higher pass rates.

• Sentry Standard maximizes traffic while filtering out the most problematic respondents.
