Survey example: Citizen survey about parks and recreation

This is an example of an AI survey about parks and recreation, made for citizen feedback—see and try the example to experience conversational insights firsthand.

Building effective citizen parks and recreation surveys can be tough—traditional forms just don’t spark full, thoughtful responses like a real conversation would. Low completion rates, vague answers, and abandoned forms are all too common.

At Specific, we specialize in AI-powered survey tools designed to solve these challenges with a better, more engaging experience for both creators and participants.

What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for citizen feedback

Anyone who’s had to gather citizen input about parks and recreation knows the usual headache: traditional surveys are easy to ignore, respondents drop off, and too often, you’re left unsure how to act on the answers. The pain point is universal—a rigid survey doesn’t engage people, so you get bare-bones data or, worse, abandoned surveys.

That’s where AI-driven conversational surveys change the game. Instead of ticking boxes on static forms, people join a two-way, chat-like conversation that dynamically adapts based on their responses. With Specific, you can produce an AI survey example in minutes, yielding a friendlier, more effective experience—and much better data.

Let’s see side-by-side how AI-powered survey generation compares:

Why use AI for citizen surveys?

• Higher completion and engagement: Adaptive experience gets citizens through the survey and keeps them interested [2].

• Richer context: Detailed, high-quality input means you uncover more useful insights, not just one-word answers [4].

• Mainstream accessibility: Works great on mobile, fits into chat-first habits, feels engaging (not a chore).

• Automatic follow-ups clarify unclear answers: AI probes for meaning or elaboration mid-conversation, getting you beyond vague responses.

Specific’s conversational surveys are designed for best-in-class user experience, whether you’re the one creating the citizen parks and recreation survey or the one giving feedback. With a guided, natural flow, they’re easy (and painless!) for people to complete.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

What makes our AI survey example truly conversational is how Specific’s survey engine asks automatic follow-up questions—in real time—based on the last thing a citizen said. Instead of fishing through murky, one-sentence answers, the AI homes in, asking smart, context-aware follow-ups that capture the full, honest story.

This saves hours of email ping-pong trying to clarify something, and makes every response actionable the first time. Here’s how it typically plays out:

• Citizen: “The playgrounds need work.”

• AI follow-up: “Can you share what specific issues you’ve noticed with the playgrounds, or how they could be improved?”

• Citizen: “I wish there were more activities.”

• AI follow-up: “What kind of activities do you think should be added to the parks? Are there any you or your family would especially enjoy?”

Without these follow-ups, you might end up with fuzzy responses and lots of questions still to answer. With AI, you get the detail needed from the start—no wasted time and no lost insight. See how these automated, context-aware follow-ups actually work in our feature guide on AI follow-up questions.

This back-and-forth is what makes a conversational survey truly conversational—respondents feel heard, and you get depth you’d never capture with a static form.

Survey delivery: landing page & in-product options

You have flexible ways to get your parks and recreation survey in front of citizens. Whether you want to reach a broad community or target specific participants, we’ve got the bases covered:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Perfect for sending survey links via city newsletters, social media, local community groups, or QR codes at parks—invite the public to share feedback anytime.

• In-product surveys: Add the AI survey directly to your city’s website or online recreation registration tool. Residents can give feedback at the exact moment they use a service or book an activity.

For most parks and recreation projects, a landing page survey is the fastest way to reach citizens, collect broad feedback, and make it simple for anyone in the community to respond—on mobile or desktop.

AI-powered survey analysis, without spreadsheets

Once citizens have shared their thoughts, it’s time to turn that feedback into insights. Specific’s AI survey analysis instantly summarizes responses, flags recurring themes, and transforms raw data into clear, actionable next steps—no manual sifting, tagging, or endless copying into spreadsheets.

Thanks to automatic topic detection and the option to chat directly with the AI about your results, you’ll move from unstructured answers to decisions, fast.
