Intuitive Interface
Participant Recruitment
"Gorilla allows us to efficiently collect large, diverse samples of participants that are often unfeasible to obtain in the lab. The task builder makes it possible to build pilot experiments within a short space of time, while also allowing the flexibility to implement more sophisticated psychophysical designs."
MetaLab, Wellcome Trust Centre of Neuroimaging
Components
Your tasks. Your way. Choose from dozens of stimulus and response options available out of the box.
You can mix, match and reuse Task Builder components to suit your research question. And create the behaviour that you want.
Tutorials
It's easy to get started with Gorilla - and it's powerful enough for professionals.
Become a more efficient researcher, one 3-minute tutorial at a time
Branch participants based on responses, response accuracy - and more. Improve participant experience. And collect only the data you need.
Learn how
Randomise trials, blocks of trials, spreadsheet columns, subsets and more. So you minimise bias. And enhance validity.
Learn how
Automatically scale participants up or down difficulty levels. so you optimise for precision. And maintain participant engagement.
Learn how
Preview your tasks on different device types and sizes. So you can optimise your task layout and make things easy for your participants.
Learn how
Track participants' mouse movements on a screen. So you can investigate real-time cognitive processing.
Learn how
Award and deduct points for correct and incorrect answers. And show participants how many points they have earnt.

The classic Flanker Task (or Erikson Flanker Task) is a response inhibition test used to assess participants' ability to suppress responses
Preview
The classic Stroop task - colour names match and mismatch text colour. Desktop version uses keyboard input, mobile version uses touch buttons
Preview
Participants hear a series of audio clips. You can increase difficulty using more complex audio clips, distortion or longer sentence recall
Preview
A series of random numbers are generated and presented to participants. Participants recall these by typing them into a text box
Preview
Participants are shown a series of faces, some with features or the whole face inverted. Participants have to detect if the face is natural or not

Easy for humans, hard for bots. One of many tasks you can add to your experiment to ensure data quality. Can you find the cat among the dogs?

Gorilla gives labs, departments and research teams the power to address their research questions at scale
Move your work forward quickly - with tools that make it easy to share your work for review, delegate experiment admin, and create shared libraries of pre-approved resources
Explore new ideas with confidence, knowing your work saves automatically. You can't break it or lose your work. And you can make changes quickly - even after you've lanched your study
Want to add your own code without managing a whole server? Gorilla is a no-code experiment builder, but those who prefer the option can easily add scripts to extend the tools
Tools to make good science easy for students, researchers and supervisors
Teachers
"What we've managed to do with Gorilla is give students the tools and templates to make their own experiments, with minimal supervision. Students can go out and test a hypothesis via social media. Results flood in from all over the world, and they're creating this incredible range of studies. It's a much richer learning experience."
