Skipper offers four additional features: Modify, Resolve to Fit, Suggest Next Question, and Suggest Answers. These AI tools on the Survey Editor page streamline survey creation by leveraging market research best practices, providing recommendations and edits to your survey draft based on your prompts.

Modify
Use Modify to adapt an existing question with specific prompts, or to insert new question sets into your existing survey draft.
Modifying an existing question
- Hover over the question to show the Skipper bar above it, then click Skipper–Modify.
- Select an example prompt or type your own command describing how you'd like the question or answer options to change. Example prompts for a filled-in question include Expand, Split into two, Suggest best Q type, Edit for clarity, and Modify to fit current Q type.
Adding question sets
- Hover over a blank question, then click Skipper–Modify above it.
- Select an example prompt or type your own command specifying how many questions you'd like and what topic to explore. Example prompts for a blank question include Add a few questions about…, plus prompts for a section intro, an attention check, and an opt-in question.
⚠️ Note: Skipper adds a comment briefly explaining what it changed. If you don't like the modification, click Undo or use the survey history tool to revert to a previous state.
Resolve to Fit
If a question shows an error because its text is too long or it has too many answer options, Resolve to Fit fixes the issue automatically. You can start it from the error message or directly from the field.
From the error message
- Hover over or click the red question number to view the error.
- Click Skipper – Resolve to fit.
From the field
- Hover over the over-limit text inside the field.
- Click Resolve to fit.
What Skipper changes
- Question text that's too long: Skipper rewrites the text to be shorter. For Instruction text questions and the image and video-response intro question types, it instead splits the text between that question's title and its instruction field. Resolve to Fit never creates a new question.
- Answer options that are too long: Skipper shortens the option text.
- Too many answer options: Skipper removes irrelevant options and near-duplicates first, and removes options from the end of the list only as a last resort. It always keeps "Other" and "None of the above", and never removes options made up entirely of aytm Logic. Other options that contain aytm Logic are less likely to be removed, but aren't guaranteed to stay.
⚠️ Note: If you don't like how Skipper revised the question or options, click Undo to restore your original text.
Suggest Next Question
When you're stuck and unsure what to ask next, Suggest Next Question evaluates your existing draft, considers your specific needs, and suggests new questions.
- At the bottom of the page, click Skipper – suggest next questions. To add questions to your screener, use Skipper – suggest next screener in the screener section instead.
- The prompt opens pre-filled with "Generate 1 more question". Edit it to ask for as many questions as you want and add any other criteria. Skipper will assess your draft and suggest relevant questions.
💡 Tip: Skipper explains its suggestions in a single comment on the first question it generates.
Suggest Answers
When you have a question but need answer options, Suggest Answers generates a list of suitable options, sub-questions, or alternatives based on your question type and content.
- Find the Skipper button under the question's answer list, next to the Add button. Its label depends on the question type—for example, Suggest answer options, Suggest sub-questions & answer options, or Suggest attributes.
- Click the button to generate suggestions.
