A+4%
B+1%
C-3%

Building is faster than ever. Deciding hasn’t kept up.

AI has compressed development timelines. But every decision still competes for the same pool of real users. The bottleneck isn’t building. It’s knowing what to build.

THE SPEED GAP

Your build cycle got faster. Your learning cycle didn’t.

You can ship a feature in a day. Knowing whether it was the right one still takes weeks.

THE COLD START

New territory, no signal.

You’re designing for a segment you haven’t served yet. Their attitudes, their likely reactions, their anxieties. You need signal before you’ve built anything, and you can’t A/B test what doesn’t exist yet.

THE COST

Too late.

The only way to know if a decision was right is to ship it and watch. By the time you’ve learned, you’ve already spent the engineering time.

How it works

1

Describe your decision

Drop in a URL or upload mocks. Choose whether you’re testing a live product or exploring a concept that doesn’t exist yet.

2

Choose your audience

Pick from pre-built audiences drawn from real survey data, or work with us to build audiences that match your specific users.

3

Simulate

Run your simulated users. Get outputs you can act on, share with your team, or feed directly into your next decision.

Two modes. Every stage of the decision.

From ideas and hunches to prototypes and staging deployments, Semilattice gives you signal at every stage.

Audience Simulation

Ask your users anything

Test concepts and early decisions on pricing, messaging, features and positioning. Understand a segment in depth, or compare how different audiences react to the same question.

Product Simulation

Watch them use it

Simulated users navigate your product the way your real users do. Every click, every hesitation, every drop-off. Use with whichever audience segments you care about.

Recommendations
1

Position any paid tier as "premium extras" rather than replacing free features — loss aversion is the biggest barrier.

2

Lead with budgeting and savings tools as the core value proposition for early adopters.

3

Consider a freemium model: free core banking, paid feature bundles under the psychological threshold.

Methodology

Simulated survey of 2,400 digital twins calibrated to UK adult population (25-45). Model accuracy validated at 87% against ONS financial behaviour data. Confidence intervals: +/- 3.2% at 95% CI.

Would UK adults switch to a subscription model for their primary banking app?

UK Adults 25-45|2,400 digital twins|Model accuracy: 87%|4 March 2026
Predicted outcome

The majority of UK adults aged 25-45 would not switch to a subscription banking model. Only 23% express willingness, primarily among higher earners who already pay for premium accounts. The strongest resistance comes from the 35-45 bracket who view free banking as a fundamental expectation.

Key insights

Price sensitivity is the dominant factor — 68% cite "I already pay enough in fees" as their primary objection.

Users who value budgeting tools are 3.2x more likely to consider paying, suggesting feature bundling as a viable path.

Trust in traditional banks is low; 41% believe subscription would mean "paying for what should be free".

Early adopters cluster around 25-30, digitally native, already using 2+ fintech apps alongside their main bank.
