Examples
Pre-tests, concept votes, customer signal — all without a survey tool.
Why it works
The reply rate is the alpha. Polls for Gmail pulls it forward.
Inline polls dramatically out-respond embedded survey links because there's no leaving-the-inbox tax.
Pick the winning subject line, headline, or CTA with your team or a small customer panel — in hours, not weeks.
Watch the count climb. Screenshot for Slack. Export to CSV or Google Sheets for your campaign retro.
Reach out to your customer panel without asking them to log into a research portal. Single click, in their inbox.
