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

Getting honest, detailed feedback from citizens about library services is notoriously difficult. Most people ignore long, boring forms—and the ones who do respond rarely provide the level of detail you need to actually make changes. This is where an AI survey template changes the game.

A conversational survey feels like a chat, not an interrogation. Respondents engage with questions that adapt to their answers in real time—exactly what Specific specializes in. Instead of wading through static forms, citizens share their experiences in a fluid, interactive conversation. The result? More responses, higher quality insights, and a lot less frustration for both the city and the people it serves.

Consider how AI survey generation stacks up against traditional/manual methods:

Why use AI for citizen surveys?

• Higher completion rates: People are far more likely to finish an AI-powered chat survey—completion jumps from 50% to 80%. [1]

• Lower abandonment: With a conversational AI survey template, we see far less drop-off. Traditional surveys lose up to 55% of respondents before they finish. AI cuts that down to around 15-25%. [1]

• Best-in-class user experience: 88% say they enjoy the chat-driven survey much more than a standard form. [3] Specific’s conversational flow keeps citizens engaged from start to finish.

You don’t have to take our word for it—try generating a custom survey from scratch with Specific, or simply use our preset for Library Services Satisfaction and see the difference.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

The true magic behind conversational surveys is in the follow-ups. Specific’s AI can instantly ask smart, context-aware questions based on every answer a citizen gives—not days later over email, but right there in the flow of conversation. This helps us surface detailed insights that would otherwise be buried or lost.

Think about it: when you send out a form and a citizen writes something unclear or incomplete, what happens? Usually, you’re stuck with vague results or you have to chase them by email (with a low chance of reply). Specific fixes this in one seamless chat.

• Citizen: "The library hours are sometimes inconvenient."

• AI follow-up: "Can you share more about which hours or days feel inconvenient for you?"

• Citizen: "I wish there were more programs for kids."

• AI follow-up: "What type of kids' programs would you like to see offered at your library?"

By asking these targeted follow-ups in real time, we capture context and turn every vague answer into valuable, actionable feedback. Learn more about automatic AI follow-ups here.

It’s a new approach—give it a spin and see how the conversation unfolds naturally. These contextual follow-ups are what make this an actual conversational survey, not just a static form.

Easy editing, like magic

Once you’ve started with our AI survey template, tweaking it couldn’t be simpler. Just chat with the survey AI editor—tell it what you want to ask (or not ask), and the template updates itself instantly, using research-backed best practices. There’s no technical setup, complex forms, or manual rewording. Whether you want to add a question about new library technologies or rephrase a query for clarity, it’s done in seconds.

How to deliver the survey: landing page or in-product

The best way to reach citizens about library services is to meet them where they already are. With Specific, you can deliver your AI-powered survey in two effective ways:

• Sharable landing page surveys: Send a link via email, your city website, library newsletter, social media, or QR code displays at library branches. Perfect for citywide public engagement, targeted neighborhood outreach, or special event feedback drives.

• In-product surveys: Got a municipal app or library self-service website? Drop the survey into your digital tools, so citizens get asked at precisely the right moment—like after renewing a book or searching the catalogue.

For gathering broad citizen feedback about library services, sharable landing pages are often most effective, but don’t underestimate the power of in-product surveys for digital library users or newsletter subscribers—you can even run both at once.
