Creating effective surveys for conference participants about matchmaking effectiveness is challenging—traditional tools make it hard to genuinely engage people and gather precise, relevant feedback.

At Specific, we’re leaders in conversational AI survey design, taking user feedback and event research to the next level with our advanced platform.

What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for conference participants

If you’ve run post-conference surveys, you probably know how frustrating low engagement and high drop-off rates can be. Getting actionable, honest insights from conference participants about matchmaking effectiveness isn’t easy with static forms.

That’s where conversational surveys powered by AI come in. Instead of static forms, an AI survey example engages respondents like a chat—making survey-taking feel more like a quick conversation than a chore. In fact, AI-powered surveys have demonstrated completion rates of 70–90%, a massive jump compared to the 10–15% averages for traditional online surveys [2]. That matters, because the more responses you get from real participants, the less bias and the deeper your insights [1].

If you want to see the difference, here’s a quick comparison:

Why use AI for conference participant surveys?

• AI surveys adapt questions on the fly, keeping participants engaged and lowering abandonment rates to as low as 15–25% [3].

• They process responses in minutes or hours, so you get timely, actionable insights for your event strategy [4].

• You never have to worry about writing every follow-up—AI handles context and nuance effortlessly.

Specific delivers a best-in-class experience in creating conversational surveys, making feedback smooth for both the survey creator and for conference participants.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

The magic of Specific’s conversational AI surveys is in the follow-ups. Our AI doesn’t just ask prewritten questions—it listens to the participant’s reply and asks smart follow-up questions, just like a skilled moderator would in person. These follow-ups are asked in real time, drawing out details and context that you’d otherwise miss. The result: richer, clearer insights about event matchmaking.

Here’s what happens if you don’t have AI-powered follow-ups:

• Conference participant: “I met a few people, but it was okay.”

• AI follow-up: “Can you share what made the experience just ‘okay’? Was there anything specific you felt could be improved in the matchmaking process?”

If you stop after that first vague answer, you’re left guessing. AI-driven follow-ups ask the next question—politely, contextually, and without a human intervening. This automates what would otherwise require lots of manual, email-based back-and-forth (all too common after events).

These dynamic, automated followups are a new way to make surveys genuinely conversational. Try creating a survey on Specific and see how smooth the interview flow can be, or read more on our automatic AI follow-up questions feature.

Simply put: followups transform traditional forms into a true conversational survey.

Easy editing, like magic

Tweaking your survey shouldn’t feel like a chore. At Specific, you just chat with our AI survey editor, describe what you want to change—like adjusting a question or adding more detail on matchmaking effectiveness—and the edit happens instantly. No more manual editing, shuffling questions, or re-writing branching logic from scratch. Need to update based on feedback from your team? It takes seconds, not hours.

Survey delivery: landing page or in-product chat

Specific’s conversational surveys are designed to reach conference participants wherever it works best for your event:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Perfect for sending to participants after the event via email or message—invite attendees to share thoughts on matchmaking effectiveness in just a few clicks.

• In-product surveys: Great for digital conferences or when you have an event app or online platform—pop up a quick conversational survey while participants are actively engaging.

For events with participants scattered across platforms and locations, landing page delivery is often the simplest way to boost response rates. But if your conference has its own app, in-product surveys can catch participants’ insights at the perfect moment, right as networking sessions wrap up.

Analyze survey responses faster with AI

Once your responses are in, AI-powered analysis with Specific summarizes what participants really think—instantly. No more spreadsheets or endless copy-paste. The system automatically detects recurring topics, highlights key opinions, and even lets you chat with the data directly to ask questions like, “What are the top issues with matchmaking effectiveness?” If you want more details on how to analyze conference participant matchmaking effectiveness survey responses with AI, we’ve got you covered.

This approach to AI survey analysis delivers actionable insights fast, using advanced techniques like automated topic detection and smart summaries. Explore even more in our AI survey response analysis feature guide.
