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

  • Max-diff priorities show what members would actually trade off, not a list where everything is urgent
  • A willingness-to-act checklist you can turn straight into a volunteer list
  • The AI follow-up captures stories in members' own words for testimony and grant reports
