What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

Why this template

What this template is built to do — we found no directly comparable template from other survey tools to review.

What sets it apart

  • Scores every initiative (Bet A–D) across all three ICE dimensions — Impact, Confidence, and Ease — using dedicated opinion-scale questions, not just a single composite risk rating
  • Pairs each quantitative ICE score with a matching open-text question capturing risks, dependencies, and assumptions for that specific initiative, so scores come with rationale attached
  • Includes a ranking question and a forced single-choice 'if only one could be funded' question that let you cross-validate the calculated ICE scores against stakeholders' gut prioritization
  • Closes with an AI follow-up interview that adaptively probes the reasoning behind a respondent's prioritization, plus role, region, and tenure segmentation to see how views differ by stakeholder type
