What Experts Say

About Us

Alex Bez Bezdek

Alex "Bez" Bezdek

Founder

Bez started Uptime Interviews to create a platform for industrial operators to share their deep expertise with the market.

We connect industrial operators with the companies that need to understand their markets. Experts get paid. Clients get insights they can't get anywhere else.

Questions

Common Inquiries

Honoraria are set per project based on the scope of the study and the depth of expertise required, with a 30 minute minimum per call. You will see the exact honorarium before you accept any invitation, and it is never reduced after the fact.
We screen every client engagement for conflicts before matching experts. Before you accept any call, we tell you the industry and nature of the client so you can judge for yourself, and you are always free to decline a call for any reason, no questions asked. We do not place experts on calls with clients who compete with their employer.
Interviews are typically oriented around topics like vendor performance, selection process, purchasing trends, and existing pain points. Projects will span all offerings, including software, hardware, services, and distribution.
Within 24 hours of your call, you will receive a link from Tremendous, a leading platform for compensating research respondents. Most experts elect a direct bank transfer. You can also choose a digital gift card or donate your honorarium to charity.
Yes. You can select from 50+ charities through Tremendous, or we can make the donation to a specific charity on your behalf.
No. Interviews cover your market perspective, vendor experiences, and industry trends. We never ask for your employer's confidential or proprietary information, and you can decline any question at any time.
Honoraria are taxable income and you are responsible for your own taxes, whether or not you receive a tax form. Depending on your total payments in a calendar year, US respondents may be issued a 1099. Consult your tax advisor for your specific situation.
