Q22
Long Text

What is the single most important change we could make to keep you shopping with us?

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.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Combines structured behavioral questions (purchase frequency, tenure, channel/platform use, feature usage, order cadence) with ranking and opinion-scale items to quantify value perception and retention/NPS intent.
  • Includes an adaptive AI follow-up interview that can probe deeper on what keeps respondents shopping and what could cause churn, going beyond fixed-choice answers.
  • Pairs open-text questions (standout moment in the last 7 days, single most important change) with automated per-response quality scoring and auto-generated reporting to surface actionable churn drivers.
  • Captures both loyalty behavior (recommendations made) and demographic segmentation (age, gender, country) to help slice churn risk by cohort.

QuestionPro

Evaluation of Potential for E-Commerce Services Survey Template + Sample Questionnaire

This is a static, fielding-ready questionnaire aimed at evaluating e-commerce service potential rather than specifically diagnosing churn risk among existing power users. It offers a fixed set of sample questions that a researcher can copy and edit, with no adaptive questioning logic. Positioned more as a general e-commerce feedback template than a retention-focused instrument.

What it does well

  • Sample questionnaire is ready to use as a starting point without building from scratch
  • Backed by QuestionPro's established survey platform with broad question-type support
  • Framed specifically around e-commerce services, so terminology and context are relevant to online retail

Where it falls short

  • Static question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to probe individual churn reasons in depth
  • No mention of voice AI interviews or guided screen-share tasks for observing actual shopping behavior
  • No published per-response quality scoring or transparent prompt methodology

Typeform

Free Churn Survey Template

A free, general-purpose churn survey template usable across industries, not tailored specifically to e-commerce power-user behavior. It's built on Typeform's conversational form format, which is good for completion rates but remains a fixed question flow. Useful as a quick generic churn-intent check rather than a deep behavioral/retention diagnostic tool.

What it does well

  • Free to use and quick to deploy via Typeform's polished, conversational form interface
  • General churn framing makes it adaptable to many business types
  • Typeform's format tends to have strong completion rates due to its clean, one-question-at-a-time design

Where it falls short

  • No e-commerce-specific behavioral questions (purchase frequency, channel use, feature usage) built in
  • Fixed question flow with no adaptive AI interview or voice AI follow-up to explore individual churn drivers
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated churn-risk reporting
