Surveys (platform tool)

Create surveys, collect responses, and connect insights to your validation workflow.

What it is

Surveys let you build questionnaires, publish them, and track responses inside Venture OS.

Venture OS workspace overview: sidebar or hub entry, header with progress, main workspace, optional AI, save to venture

Where to open it

Use the Open … link at the end of this article, or launch the surface from Plans, Tools, or Validation in the app shell—whichever matches this guide.

UI at a glance

  • Entry: hub cards or sidebar; incomplete prerequisites show as locks or disabled rows until Idea Book or prior steps catch up.
  • Workspace: sections, tabs, filters, or lists depending on the product—use on-screen progress indicators to see what’s left.
  • AI: only appears where the product enables it; outputs are drafts until you verify.

AI and automation

AI reads your venture context (often Idea Book fields plus this surface). It accelerates writing and suggestions; it does not replace customer discovery, legal, or financial advice.

Data and persistence

Content saves on your venture (or your account for expert-only inboxes). Exports and Vault may reuse the same data; other features may gate on completion here.

Who it’s for

Founders validating assumptions with structured quantitative or qualitative questions at scale.

How it fits your journey

Pairs with the Validation workspace and Idea Book evidence — use surveys to test hypotheses you captured as assumptions.

Prerequisites

Sign in; no Idea Book section gate beyond normal venture access.

Getting started
