Pick a survey
Each survey's card says when to use it and how many minutes and questions it takes, with a link to its results once you've run it. On most cards, Preview opens the survey the way your people will see it, without saving answers, and Details explains what it measures.
Not sure which one? Ask AI under the list suggests up to three surveys, best match first, with the reasons. Pick one of six common situations, or describe your own. A situation is answered from our own texts; a description you type, up to 500 characters, goes to an AI model with our public list of surveys, and we don't store it. Here's what each situation suggests:
Launch for me
Press Launch survey on a card, then Launch for me, and the survey opens at once with these settings:
- It opens now and stays open until you close it.
- A shared password, anonymous. Five random words, made for this run, and nobody is asked for a name or email.
- Google sign-in for your company's domain instead, for the 360° AI Maturity Assessment (opens in a new tab) and AI Skills Distribution (opens in a new tab): their reports are about named people. Anyone with a verified Google email at your domain can answer.
- The survey's own title and welcome text. Skills assessments also show people their level and a score per area right after they submit, never the right answers.
Then the link is yours to copy, with an invitation ready to send for Slack, for email, or as a prompt for Claude or ChatGPT to write one. A password is in the invitation, and shown only once. For the 360°, set your departments, seniority levels and projects before you share the link.
Advanced setup
Advanced setup walks through four steps and opens the first one that needs attention when you launch:
- Survey details: the run's internal name, which only your team sees.
- Schedule: open now or later (tomorrow at 9am, next Monday at 9am, in a week, or a date you pick), and close by hand or automatically (in 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or a date you pick). Dates use your time zone.
- Access & sharing: who can answer, below, and for email lists the invitations and reminders (opens in a new tab).
- Responder experience: the title people see, which can differ from the internal name, and a welcome description of up to 2,000 characters.
Your setup saves as a draft as you go, once it has a name, and waits under Reports until you continue or discard it. A survey you schedule has its link ready straight away; people can get in once it opens.
Who can answer
Every survey needs a password or a sign-in: there's no open link anyone can use. Choose one of three ways in:
What people see
- Your company: its logo and name while the survey loads and beside our brand on every screen. You set the logo once, in Settings.
- Your title and welcome text, then how many questions there are, about how long it takes and when it closes.
- One question at a time, with answers saved as people go. Someone who comes back picks up where they left off, in the same browser; people who sign in with Google can switch devices too.
- No account to create. People open the link and enter the password, or sign in with Google.
More on keeping answers coming in, and honest, in Getting high response rates (opens in a new tab).
While it runs
The person who launched a survey can:
- pause and resume it, close it, or archive it;
- change who can get in, which signs current respondents out but keeps every submitted answer;
- edit the title and welcome text, and rename the run;
- copy the link again, and delete a single response for good.
Results show in the report (opens in a new tab) from the first response.
What it won't do
Open a survey to anyone with the link. There's always a password or a Google sign-in.
Sign people in with Microsoft or your company's SSO. Sign-in is Google only.
Change the dates after launch, or pick a time zone other than yours.
Repeat by itself. You launch each round, and its report sets it against the last ones.
Take your own questions, or run in other languages. The surveys are ready-made, and in English.
