What is RealEye used for?
It runs online eye-tracking studies so teams can see where people look on ads, websites, videos or packaging, using ordinary webcams.

No. Studies run in a web browser with any webcam, and smartphones are supported, so there is nothing to install.
Can I use my own participants or panel?

Does RealEye have an API?
Yes. It offers data export and an API with public documentation for pulling study results into other tools.
