Today we are launching Surbee.
We started Surbee because the tools researchers, founders, and operators rely on for survey data have not really changed in fifteen years. The interfaces feel like spreadsheets stapled to email forms. The results feel like guesses dressed up as numbers. And the moment a survey leaves your hands, you lose almost all visibility into who is on the other side of it.
We think that has to change, especially now. Decisions get faster. Markets move in days, not quarters. The cost of acting on bad data has never been higher, and at the same time, the supply of bad data, like bots, lazy panels, and half-attentive respondents, has never been larger.
Surbee is our answer to that.
Surbee is a survey platform built around three ideas:
- The interface should feel like a modern document, not a form builder. You should be able to write, edit, and arrange a survey the way you would write a memo.
- Every response should be defensible. We give you signal on who answered, how they answered, and whether the answer is actually worth listening to.
- The same survey should work for a research panel, an internal team, a customer list, and a community, without rebuilding it three times.
You can try the live product today. The free tier is generous; the paid tiers exist for teams that need scale, governance, and integrations.
This is the first of what will be regular posts here. We will use this blog to share what we are building, what we are learning, and the occasional opinion about how the survey industry should work.
If you want to follow along, the best places are this blog and our changelog. If you want to talk to us directly, we are always reachable.
Thanks for being early. We are excited to show you what we have been working on.
