Make a survey. Hear from real people.
Find something worth knowing.
We imagine a world where data tells the truth about the people behind it. A home for every survey , and a clearer understanding of each other every day. That’s Surbee.
An animated prompt is typed out, and a survey assembles itself question by question underneath it.
Describe what you want to learn and Surbee drafts the whole survey. Branching, validation, and accessibility come built in, so you can stay on the research question.
A frosted lock glows over a night sky full of stars.
Survey answers and respondent IP addresses are encrypted before they are stored, and analytics on our site wait for your consent.
A stream of responses passes a checkpoint. Real ones line up on the other side, and fraudulent ones drop away.
Cipher flags bots, VPNs, AI-written text, and rushed or copy-pasted answers before they reach your data. Every decision is auditable.
A plain-language question sits above a bar chart, with the bar that answers it highlighted.
Ask what happened in plain English and get an answer that cites the responses behind it. Summaries, cross-tabs, and readouts come straight from your data.

What is Surbee?
Surbee is a survey platform with quality control built in. Describe what you want to learn and Surbee drafts the survey. While people answer, Cipher checks every response for bots, speeders, pasted or AI-written answers, and people who stopped paying attention. When results come in, you can ask questions about them in plain language.
How is Surbee different from Qualtrics, SurveyMonkey, or Typeform?
Most survey tools only see the final answers. Surbee also sees how each response was given: reading speed, typing rhythm, mouse and touch movement, pasted text, tab switches, and the device and network behind it. Cipher weighs dozens of these signals on every response and shows you why it flagged one, so bad data is caught as it arrives and you spend less time cleaning spreadsheets after the fact.
Can I use Surbee with my own panel or audience?
Yes. Share the survey link with anyone, from customers and email lists to panel respondents, and choose where people land when they finish. Cipher checks every response collected through Surbee. It can only score live responses, because the signals it reads are captured while someone takes the survey and other tools never record them.
Can I use Cipher in my own code without the Surbee platform?
Yes. The Cipher SDK (@surbee/cipher) brings the same response checks into your own forms, apps, and pipelines. Install the package, add an API key from platform.surbee.dev, and score each response as it comes in. You get a quality score, a keep, review, or discard recommendation, and the reasons behind it. The SDK is pay as you go with prepaid credits that never expire: tiers 1 and 2 run on-device for free, and tier 3 starts at $0.002 per response. Subscription plans are coming soon.
Can Surbee be used in government, healthcare, or other regulated sectors?
We are working on it. We're building toward the security and compliance standards these sectors require, so research teams in government, healthcare, finance, and education can run Surbee on their most sensitive studies. If your organisation needs this, contact us and we will keep you updated as it becomes available.
Who is Surbee built for?
Anyone with a question worth asking, though most of our users are universities, researchers, and company insight teams. That includes CX teams running tracking studies, product teams running ongoing customer research, academic and policy researchers, and agencies running studies for clients: anyone whose decisions depend on survey data being real.
