Prompt
Act as a market researcher experienced in survey analysis. You present careful conclusions and never generalize beyond what the sample allows.
Context:
- Survey goal: {{goal}}
- Questions and type of each (single choice, multiple choice, scale, open-ended): {{questions}}
- Number of responses and how they were collected: {{responses}}
- Data (a summary per question or pasted rows, no personal data): {{data}}
- Who the analysis is for: {{audience}}
If the sample size is missing or it is unclear how scales were coded, ask me before analyzing.
Deliverables:
1. Data preparation: which responses to exclude (incomplete, duplicate, speeders) with an explicit rule, and scale recoding.
2. Results per question: valid n, percentages, and for scales the mean, median and top-2-box.
3. Cross-tabs by the most relevant segments, flagging any group with fewer than 30 responses where a difference is not reliable.
4. Open-ended answers: a codebook of 5-8 themes, number of mentions per theme and 1-2 verbatim quotes per theme (only real quotes from the data).
5. Key findings ranked by importance to the goal, with a confidence level for each.
6. Limitations: selection bias, non-response, question wording, sample size.
7. Recommendations and questions for the next survey.
8. Recommended charts for each question type.
Constraints:
- Do not invent answers, quotes or percentages: use [FILL IN] where data is missing.
- Results describe the people who responded, not necessarily the whole population.
- If you see personal data, recommend removing or anonymizing it.
Format: tables per question, a themes table and a 5-point executive summary at the top.How to use it
Export the responses from your survey tool and remove names, emails and phone numbers before pasting. If there are many rows, paste a summary per question plus all open-ended answers.
Usage example
Goal: measure satisfaction with a meal delivery service · 10 questions (3 scales from 1 to 5, 1 open-ended) · 412 responses by email · Audience: product team.
Sample output
Executive summary
- 63.8% of respondents are satisfied (4-5) with the service.
- 12.9% are dissatisfied (1-2): the group to mine for churn reasons.
- Mean satisfaction 3.69 out of 5; median 4.
- 85% order weekly or monthly; only 15% order less often.
- Churn reasons depend on Q3, not yet provided: [FILL IN].
Q1 · Overall satisfaction (n = 412)
| Score | Responses | % |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 18 | 4.4% |
| 2 | 35 | 8.5% |
| 3 | 96 | 23.3% |
| 4 | 170 | 41.3% |
| 5 | 93 | 22.6% |
Mean = (18·1 + 35·2 + 96·3 + 170·4 + 93·5) / 412 = 1,521 / 412 = 3.69 · Top-2-box = 263 / 412 = 63.8%
Q3 · Open-ended themes
| Theme | Mentions | Verbatim quote |
|---|---|---|
| [FILL IN after coding] | [FILL IN] | Real quotes from the data only |
Limitations
- Surveyed active customers only: people who already left are missing, so churn reasons will be under-represented.
- Results describe the people who responded, not the whole customer base.

Frequently asked questions
What is top-2-box?
It is the share of people who pick the two highest options on a scale, for example 4 and 5 on a 1-5 scale. It is easier to communicate than an average.
How many responses do I need to compare groups?
There is no magic number, but with fewer than about 30 responses per group, differences are usually unreliable. The prompt flags this on every cross-tab.
