Survey example: Tenants survey about building safety

This is an example of an AI survey about building safety designed for tenants. You can see and try the example now—it’s ready in just a click.

Getting meaningful feedback on building safety from tenants is tough. Most surveys are either too bland or don’t ask follow-up questions, so you miss out on deeper insight.

At Specific, we help people create conversational, AI-driven surveys that actually get responses and uncover details—no guesswork, no busywork. All our survey tools are part of the Specific platform.

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

Most traditional tenant surveys hit a wall—people abandon them because they feel cold or irrelevant, and the answers you get back are flat. When you’re asking about something as serious as building safety, that’s a huge problem. Landlords need actionable, honest feedback. Tenants want their concerns heard. Trying to bridge that gap with a static list of questions rarely works.

AI survey generation changes everything. Using an AI survey builder like Specific, you can spin up a conversational survey that adapts in real time, digging deeper into what matters to each tenant. This isn’t just a fancy form—it’s a true conversation that builds trust and produces richer, more nuanced responses. No need to craft each branching question from scratch; the AI handles the flow, tone, and structure.

Why use AI for tenants surveys?

• AI surveys for tenants achieve completion rates up to 70-80%, compared to 45-50% for older, manual survey methods, thanks to the adaptability and personalized conversation of AI. That’s a real impact on feedback you can use. [2]

• AI-generated surveys process and analyze responses far faster, which means you spend your time taking action instead of wrangling data.

• With Specific, the feedback experience is smooth and genuinely engaging—for both creators and tenants.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Most survey tools stop at the first answer, but real insights hide in the follow-up. With Specific, AI drives the entire conversation—if a tenant’s reply is unclear or only scratches the surface, the system will generate expert probing questions in real time, just like a skilled interviewer. That means you’ll get context, uncover themes, and avoid endless email ping-pong trying to clarify responses. Learn more about this in-depth on our automatic AI follow-up questions feature page.

• Tenant: “My floor feels a bit unsafe.”

• AI follow-up: “Can you share more about what makes your floor feel unsafe? Is it lighting, security, or something else?”

Without follow-up, you get vague answers; with AI-driven prompts, you get actionable specifics. Try creating a survey just to see how naturally this feels and how much richer the feedback becomes.

These follow-up interactions transform a generic form into a real conversation—making every survey a true conversational survey.

Easy editing, like magic

Editing your survey shouldn’t mean wrestling with endless settings or rebuilding everything from scratch. With Specific, you describe what you want to change—just type it in—and the AI updates your survey instantly. Want to add another question, change wording, or adjust how the AI follows up? It’s all handled in seconds, with expert insight for every change. See how the chat-based survey editor works here.
