The pain
How most teams collect answers
A survey in a separate service
- ✗Everyone gets the same questions, even the irrelevant ones
- ✗Answers get copied into a spreadsheet by hand
- ✗No idea how many people opened the form and gave up
- ✗Tests are checked by hand, one at a time
01 · Build
A step-by-step form in a couple of minutes
Each question is its own step. Add an element, write the question, and the form is ready.
20 elements in six groups
Content, text, rating, contact info, choice and file upload. Need the client’s phone? Pick Phone number in the Add element dialog.
Each question is its own step
At the bottom is the step strip: Start and the questions in order, each with icons for its elements. Click a step and it opens for editing.
02 · Branch
Everyone gets their own questions
The next step depends on the answer. Ask an unhappy client what went wrong, and a happy one whether they’d recommend you.
Conditional steps, on a diagram
If the ease rating is smaller than 7, the next step is “What was inconvenient?”. Greater than 6 — “Would you recommend…”. Conditions are set in the panel to the right of the diagram.
Each respondent takes their own path
A client rates booking 5 out of 10, and the next step asks what was inconvenient.
03 · Style
A form in your company’s style
Theme, color, logo and footer line live in the form settings. For fine-tuning, add your own CSS.
Ready-made themes in one click
Calm, North and other themes with a photo and color. Pick North and the form is repainted at once. Primary color and element rounding are right there too.
Your style
Logo, footer line and custom CSS
Logo
Your company name in the header of every step.
Footer line
A line at the bottom of each step: “© Northwind Studio, 2026”.
Custom CSS
Your own rules for buttons and fields, with a class reference under Documentation.
No branding
Hide branding is a single switch next to Progress bar, Copyright and Logo.
04 · Test knowledge
A test that grades itself
Points, a passing score and a breakdown of mistakes. After an attempt the respondent sees which topic to review.
Points, passing score and attempts
A 75% passing score is about 3 of 4 points. The first, last or best attempt counts, and you can show the respondent a per-question breakdown.
Tests
Correct answers, topics and breakdowns
Points per question
Every question has points, a topic and a correct answer.
Topics and materials
A topic links to a page with the material, such as “Brand guide”.
Attempt breakdown
The score, whether it passed, and how each question went.
Results in the table
A Result column for every response: points and percent.
After the test: what to review
On the second attempt you see how the result changed: “Was 50%, now 75%”. Below, under What to go back to: the Brand topic and a link to the “Brand guide” material.
05 · Work with responses
Every answer is already in a table
A submission is a row, a question is a column. Search, pick your columns and export — no copying by hand.
Find the answer you need in a second
Type “slot” into the response search and the table keeps only those who complained about few free slots.
06 · Track statistics
See who opened it and who submitted
Submissions, views, completion time, devices, countries and languages are counted for you. No report to put together.
How many opened it and how many submitted
Total submissions and views, unique users and repeat visitors — as cards above the charts.
Charts
When, on what and from where people answer
Completion time
How long the form takes: from 30 seconds to 3 minutes and more.
Devices
How many answers come from desktop and how many from mobile.
Countries
Where the answers came from.
Languages
Which browser language respondents use.
07 · Share
A form by link, no account needed
Publish it and send the link. Respondents don’t need to sign up, and you can lock the form with a PIN code.
Reloaded? They pick up at the same step
A respondent reloads the page on “What was inconvenient?” — the form offers to continue and opens right there.
08 · Take bookings
Online booking, straight into your calendar
A client books a service, and the booking appears in your calendar.
A client booked — the slot is taken
Olivia Brown booked an “App launch consultation”: at 17:00 your day shows a meeting with the service name and her name.

Is there online booking?
