⚡ AI Survey Generator and Import Tool: Build surveys in seconds, not hours

Update

Launched on
October 24, 2025

Our AI Survey Generator just got a major upgrade, and we've launched a brand new AI Import tool. Both are available now on our latest plans to help you create surveys faster than ever.

What's new with the AI Survey Generator?

Our AI Generator used to be limited to basic multiple choice and text questions. Not anymore.

Now it builds surveys with every question type we offer.

Matrix questions? ✓

Sliders? ✓

Rankings, file uploads, star ratings? ✓✓✓

The AI can now create the sophisticated surveys you actually need using the question types available on your plan.

It's the difference between getting a rough draft you need to rebuild and getting a survey that's actually ready to send.

The AI Import tool

Think of it as your copy-paste miracle worker. You've got a survey drafted in Word or exported from another platform as a PDF?

Now you can just paste it into the Import tool and it builds the survey for you right in SmartSurvey.

In the new world, you don’t need to worry about manually recreating your surveys question by question. The AI recognises your titles, page breaks, and question types, then builds everything correctly based on your plan.

Why we’re excited about this

If you're drafting surveys in Word for team comments and approvals, you can now move straight from approved document to live survey in minutes. Planning a survey? Describe it to the Generator and get a professional starting point instantly.

Switching from another survey platform? Export your old surveys as PDFs and import them directly. Migration just became trivial.

For teams running regular feedback programmes, this means being more responsive. Need an employee pulse survey quickly? Generate it. Quarterly customer check-in already written? Import it. Spend your time on insights and action, not administration.
