What we do

The Brazilian Jeitinho

masculine noun - INFORMAL • BRAZIL
  1. A creative, authentic approach to solving problems—rooted in flexibility, optimism, and a uniquely Brazilian warmth.
  2. The graceful art of turning challenges into opportunities—with skill, charm, and heart.

At Ayká, the jeitinho is more than a cultural trait—it’s our strategic advantage.

We’re not just a market research company. We are interpreters of Brazil’s essence—blending data, empathy, and technology to uncover what truly moves people. We don’t just study the market; we live it, breathe it, and know how to listen deeply.

From bustling metropolises to remote corners of the country, we dive into Brazil’s vast social landscape—not only to capture data, but to understand the unique stories that shape behaviors and decisions. And while our process is empowered by advanced technology, including AI-driven tools for speed, precision, and scale, our real differentiator remains irreplaceable: human insight.

Technology
Human talent

Because, in the end, the real and irreplaceable differential of Ayká is in human value.

That’s our JEITINHO.

We connect those who ask the right questions with those who hold the real answers. On one side: seasoned professionals who design strategic research, decode complexity, and transform findings into action. 

On the other: real people, with real stories and authentic behaviors that shape Brazil’s consumer pulse. And we know exactly how—and where—to find them.
