Overview

Specialized skill for designing and analyzing surveys for product validation. Enables product teams to gather structured feedback through well-designed surveys and interpret results with statistical rigor.

Capabilities

Survey Design

• Design PMF surveys (Sean Ellis test)
• Create NPS survey implementations
• Build feature validation surveys
• Generate survey question banks
• Design onboarding feedback surveys
• Create churn exit surveys

Question Engineering

• Write unbiased survey questions
• Design appropriate response scales
• Create skip logic and branching
• Optimize question order
• Balance survey length vs completion

Analysis

• Analyze survey response data
• Calculate statistical confidence in results
• Segment analysis by user attributes
• Identify response patterns and themes
• Generate actionable insights from data

Target Processes

This skill integrates with the following processes:

• product-market-fit.js - PMF survey design and analysis
• beta-program.js - Beta participant surveys
• customer-advisory-board.js - CAB feedback collection
• jtbd-analysis.js - Jobs-based survey questions

Usage Example

const survey = await executeSkill('survey-design', {
  surveyType: 'pmf',
  objective: 'Measure product-market fit for new analytics feature',
  targetAudience: 'Active users who have used analytics at least 3 times',
  hypotheses: [
    'Users find the analytics feature valuable for their workflow',
    'Users would be disappointed if the feature was removed'
  ],
  maxQuestions: 8
});

Dependencies
