Wearable and EMA studies
Continuous device data with in-the-moment EMAs, scheduled in each participant’s timezone.
Design and run wearable, EMA and just-in-time adaptive intervention studies without code.
Centralive is built for real-world, outpatient studies that use validated wearables, smartphone sensing and EMAs, from a single lab’s pilot to multi-year longitudinal studies.
Study designs
The studies teams run on Centralive.
Smartphone sensing studies
Passive data from iPhone (Apple SensorKit) and Android phones, alongside wearables and EMAs, in a custom study app.
Just-in-time adaptive interventions
Interventions triggered by each participant’s own data, at the decision points you set, with a full decision log.
RCTs, MRTs and N-of-1 designs
Randomize participants into groups for RCTs, randomize each decision point within participants for micro-randomized trials (MRTs), or alternate conditions within each participant for N-of-1 designs, with outcomes logged for each period.
Remote monitoring studies
Live adherence on the Researcher Dashboard, with alerts when a device stops syncing or a safety signal appears.
Large and multi-year studies
Multiple studies per workspace, participant groups, and reminders that keep adherence high over time.
