Nobody plans to become the survey person

Here you are, though. Candor helps you make the survey, send it, and show what people said. Plain language, every price upfront, and ready whenever you are.

Here’s how it works

Help is built into every step, so you know it’s ready before everyone sees it.

  1. Make your survey

    A guide sits beside you as you write your own questions or start from a ready‑made one.

    A survey about reading instructions, open for editing on a phone, with the Guide’s tips for writing clear questions

  2. Try it on a few people

    Up to 10 people you trust answer it first and tell you what confused them.

    A survey question as someone trying it sees it, under a banner saying the survey is being tested, with a Feedback box open: “What was unclear or confusing?” and a Submit feedback button

  3. Send it

    Candor first flags common pitfalls and suggests fixes. Then email, text, a QR code, or right on your site.

    A survey’s sharing page on a phone: copy the link, email an invitation, send a reminder, embed it on a website, or get a QR code

  4. See what people said

    Charts you can read at a glance, and a report you can hand to your group.

    Results on a phone for the survey about reading instructions, full screen: 20 people have responded, and each of the four answers shows a bar, its count and its percentage

What it looks like

A real survey, from both sides.

What the people you ask see
The instructions survey on a phone: its title, a short welcome, and the first question with four answers to choose from
What comes back to you
The results for that first question: each of the four answers as a labeled bar with how many people chose it and the percentage

What it costs

Your first survey is free. Publishing more than one takes a paid Candor subscription: $30 a month or $300 a year.

  • Build as many surveys as you like, and try each on a few people, free, with no credit card.
  • Publish one free: unlimited questions, unlimited responses, and a small “Powered by Candor” badge at the bottom of your survey.
  • It collects responses for 30 days after you publish, then stops.
  • When the 30 days end, or a paid Candor subscription does, your results stay accessible to you until you close your account. You can still log in, filter them, chart them and export them, and keep drafting new surveys.

Every price, discounts included, on one page

With Candor Annual, you can create Circles to share live results with the people you name, at $50 a year for each person you add. See how Circles work
