Research survey branch tester

For survey research teams, turn approved questionnaires and routing rules into researcher-reviewed routing test pack. Address this specific problem: questionnaire branches hide unreachable or contradictory paths. The aim: deterministic survey flow checks before recruitment. The pilot tests whether that benefit holds up against reviewer effort and real operating costs.

The buyer creates a project, supplies approved questionnaires and routing rules, and confirms scope and access. Users correct extracted facts, resolve flagged uncertainties and approve the final researcher-reviewed routing test pack before use. Retain source links and a version history for the next cycle.

How the AI works

AI assists these bounded tasks: map response branches; generate synthetic paths; flag logic conflicts. Use only approved questionnaires and routing rules and preserve uncertainty in researcher-reviewed routing test pack. Keep model suggestions separate from verified facts. Link factual outputs to authorized input evidence and show missing information explicitly. Use deterministic checks for counts, dates, identifiers and arithmetic where applicable. A designated reviewer validates consequential outputs and signs off the delivered result.

Safeguards

Preserve original data, methods, citations and research limitations. Use researcher review and document every substantive transformation. One organization, one defined input format and one representative pilot batch using approved questionnaires and routing rules. Professional judgment, physical inspections, live external actions and production certification remain outside this prototype. Require appropriate access and publication approval. Preserve source material, label AI drafts and make corrections traceable. Measure false positives and missed cases alongside speed.

What to build first

Costed pilot: One organization, one defined input format and one representative pilot batch using approved questionnaires and routing rules. Professional judgment, physical inspections, live external actions and production certification remain outside this prototype. Start with one buyer organization and a bounded set of representative inputs. Implement the first two modules: map response branches; generate synthetic paths. Support the third task through an assisted review queue: flag logic conflicts. Handle the remaining required functions manually until validated. Include input upload, source references, user correction, a reviewer approval step and export of researcher-reviewed routing test pack. Authentication, account isolation, deletion controls and basic operational logging are included. Specialized production certification, live write integrations and broader rollout are not included unless explicitly stated.

What it can connect to

Authorized datasets, papers, protocols, code and research records. Approved repositories, application APIs, execution platforms and monitoring systems. Validate current API access and behavior during discovery before promising compatibility. Begin with uploads and exports of approved questionnaires and routing rules. Any named system or connector is a candidate requiring current access and compatibility checks; no live connection is included by default.

The screens in detail

Show a work backlog, proposed changes and verification results. Link each item to its source configuration, code or data mapping. Provide execution logs and an owner-facing health view. Keep environments and approval states clearly separated so a draft cannot be mistaken for a live change. Open with brief and sources; move into research survey branch tester for the detailed task; finish in review and delivery for review and handoff. Show the source record, uncertainty and approval status beside each proposed output.
