Accessing the assistant
The assistant has its own Assistant tab in the survey’s navigation bar. In the sidebar, click New conversation to start one, or pick up an existing conversation from the list just below — grouped by period (Today, This week, Older). Enter your question in the Enter your question… field, then send it. Within the same conversation, the assistant keeps the context of the previous messages: you can chain follow-up questions (“and among men?”, “compare with brand B”) without rephrasing everything. Start a new conversation when you change subject, to start again from a blank context. As for the rest of the results, what the assistant can consult depends on your access level on the survey.What the assistant can do
Fetching the data
To answer, the assistant starts by retrieving the right data in the survey:
You can also ask it to restrict the results to a subpopulation — for example to the respondents who gave a specific answer to a question. The assistant then builds the corresponding filter, as you would by hand.
It can also create a subtotal on a question — it then groups the items you indicate under a single label, as you would by hand.
Querying another survey
By default, the assistant answers on the current survey. You can also ask it to find another survey you have access to (by its title, its identifier or its status) and to go and fetch results there, or to compare a question across several surveys (for example between the waves of a tracker), without leaving the conversation. As everywhere else, it only sees the surveys your access level allows you to consult.Working with your PowerPoint reports
The assistant can also act directly on the reports in the Reports tab:- Consult: list the existing reports of a survey, consult the composition of a report (its slides, their charts and their filters).
- Create: create a new empty report, add an empty slide to it — choosing its layout: free-form slide, predefined layout (two charts side by side, 2x2 grid…) or divider —, then add a chart to it — Standard (single question), Crossed, questions comparison, or importance-performance matrix. In a Crossed chart, the rows can be a subtotal of a grid question (for example a “Top 2 boxes”).
- Edit: rename a report, move a slide, change its layout or its significance test, or change how an existing chart presents its results (display type, title, order, hidden rows or columns…) without having to recreate it.
- Check: render a slide as it appears in the report builder, to spot an unreadable chart, a truncated legend or overlapping elements after a change.
- Filter: apply a respondent filter to a report, a slide or a chart, or remove it.
- Write: write or rewrite the summary of a slide or of a report from the results it has just consulted.
- Delete: delete a report, a slide or a chart — and everything it contains.
Analyzing and interpreting
Once it has the figures in hand, the assistant can put them to work for you. In particular, it can:- Compare two items, two brands or two profiles, and say which one stands out — for example comparing two brands from the same question, or checking whether a result is stronger among women than among men.
- Characterize a subject by crossing several questions — for example building a brand’s image from the survey’s various indicators.
- Explain a variation from one profile to another (age, gender, subpopulation…) and point out the notable gaps.
- Summarize: bring out the main findings of a question or of a set of results.
Example questions
You can make requests for raw figures as well as requests for analysis. A few examples: To obtain a result:- “Give me the results of the awareness question.”
- “Which brand is mentioned most?”
- “Cross consideration with age.”
- “Among the 18–34s, which brand is the best known?”
- “Compare the results of the questions on the three concepts.”
- “Find my surveys on the coffee market.”
- “What is this brand’s image?”
- “Compare brand A and brand B.”
- “Is consideration stronger among women than among men?”
- “What are the main findings of this survey?”
