Survey example: Employee survey about remote work experience

This is an example of an AI survey about remote work experience for employees. If you want to see and try the example, go ahead—there's no easier way to understand how it works in practice.

Crafting employee surveys that actually get completed and deliver clear, actionable responses about remote work can be a real struggle. Most traditional surveys are impersonal, tedious, and often return lackluster insights.

We’ve done the work at Specific to build tools that make collecting real, nuanced feedback from employees not just possible—but genuinely engaging for everyone involved. Every tool you see here is part of Specific’s suite for conversational AI-driven surveys.

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

Let’s face it: most employee remote work experience surveys are either ignored or answered with vague one-liners. Low response rates, unclear answers, and survey fatigue are common culprits. But when feedback actually shapes how teams work remotely (instead of collecting dust in a spreadsheet), it has to be engaging for employees and insightful for teams.

That’s why we rely on AI-powered conversational surveys—they’re dynamic, smart, and feel like a real conversation, not an interrogation. Unlike static forms, an AI survey example dynamically adapts to each employee’s answers in real time, asking relevant follow-up questions, keeping the experience smooth, and increasing completion rates dramatically.

Recent research shows AI surveys deliver completion rates as high as 70%–90%, compared to the 10%–30% norm for old-school survey forms—proof that an adaptive, engaging approach works much better for busy employees[1].

Here’s a quick look at the differences:

Why use AI for employee surveys?

• Conversational design feels natural—staff don’t dread filling them out.

• AI asks smarter, personalized questions and adapts instantly.

• Better data—less “I don’t know” and more actionable feedback.

At Specific, we’ve focused on building the best user experience for conversational surveys, making the whole process smoother for everyone. Employees enjoy the seamless chat-like conversation, while you get deeper insights without chasing people down.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

What sets a conversational AI survey apart is how it asks smart, context-aware follow-up questions—on the fly, just like an expert interviewer. With Specific, the AI instantly picks up on each reply and asks thoughtful follow-ups, without you needing to script everything.

If you’re used to old-school surveys, here’s what usually happens:

• Employee: "Remote meetings are sometimes overwhelming."

• AI follow-up: "Could you share what specifically makes the remote meetings feel overwhelming for you?"

Without these follow-ups, responses often lack details. For example:

• Employee: "Communication is hard."

• No followup—the answer is left vague, providing no clear direction for improvement.

With AI-powered follow-up questions, you instantly get deeper context—without manual back-and-forth emails. The whole conversation flows naturally, leading to richer insights and real actionability.

In a nutshell, follow-ups are what turn surveys into real conversations—making every survey a genuinely conversational survey that feels more like talking than filling out a form.

Easy editing, like magic

Editing your employee survey is a breeze with Specific’s AI survey editor. You simply chat your changes—“Make it more friendly,” “Add a question about team collaboration,” or “Skip asking about home office”—and the survey updates itself instantly. No need to wrestle with endless settings or click through complicated menus.

AI does the heavy lifting behind the scenes, whether you want to tweak wording, add sections, or adjust logic. It’s fast, expert-level editing in seconds—leaving you free to focus on what matters.

Flexible survey delivery for remote work engagement

Getting your survey to employees is simple and flexible. You have two main options:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Create a unique link and send it via email, Slack, or your intranet. Perfect for remote teams spread across locations—just share the URL, and employees can answer on any device. This method is great for company-wide engagement feedback or pulse checks on remote work experience.

• In-product surveys: Embed the survey as a chat widget in your employee portal or intranet. Ideal for capturing contextual feedback right when employees interact with internal tools—think onboarding flows or workflow updates.

For most remote work experience feedback, sharable landing pages tend to be the fastest way to reach distributed teams. But if you want feedback right where work is happening, in-product is unbeatable. You can tailor the delivery to your workplace and workflow.

Instant insights: analyzing survey responses with AI

Once the responses roll in, Specific’s AI-powered survey analysis kicks in. You instantly get summaries, key themes, and actionable insights—no spreadsheet crunching or manual review required. Features like automatic topic detection and the ability to chat directly with AI about results help you quickly go from raw feedback to clear next steps.
