Product research templates for feedback, testing and discovery

Pick the template by where the product is. Before launch, the Waitlist form and Beta tester signup form find people to learn from; in use, the System usability survey and Product feedback survey tell you what is hard; and the Feature request form collects ideas as they come. Ratings alone rarely tell you what to build, so keep at least one open question and let the follow-up ask what the person was trying to do.

Frequently asked questions

How do I collect feature requests without a messy backlog?

Ask what problem the person was trying to solve, not just the feature they want. The Feature request form does this, which makes it easier to spot several requests that are really the same need.

What is a system usability survey?

The System Usability Scale is a standard set of ten statements people rate after using a product, which gives you a single usability score to track over time. The template includes the questions, ready to copy.

When should I survey users who cancel?

Right when they cancel, while the reason is clear to them. The Cancellation survey keeps it short and asks one follow-up so you learn what would have kept them.

Ask like a person. Watch them finish.
