Preparation and exploration tool

A laboratory for your questions, without disturbing anyone.

Simulation Mode uses AI personae to respond to your questionnaires and help you improve them before sending to real participants.

When to use Simulation Mode?

Test a questionnaire

Identify ambiguous questions, redundancies or gaps before sending to real participants.

Compare multiple versions

Simulate responses on multiple versions to choose the clearest and most discriminating.

Explore a topic

Generate ideas on a vague topic before investing in a real study.

How does a simulation work?

1

1. Define the context

Target audience type, topic and type of decision to clarify.

2

2. Create the questionnaire

Use an existing questionnaire or a template designed for simulation.

3

3. Configure personae

Specify typical profiles: experience, objectives, constraints, response style.

4

4. Launch the simulation

The system generates simulated responses for each persona.

5

5. Analyze results

See how personae react and which questions are problematic.

Questions improved

Before sending

Identify issues without bothering your participants.

Multiple tests

Unlimited

Test as many versions as needed.

Fast exploration

In minutes

Get simulated results instantly.

Example: improve a questionnaire before sending

Initial version

Questionnaire with several ambiguous or redundant questions.

Simulation

AI personae reveal problematic questions and misunderstandings.

Improvement

Rewrite based on simulated feedback: shorter questions, consistent scales.

Validation

New simulation to confirm improvements before real sending.

What simulation can do

Configurable personae

Define typical profiles adapted to your context and objectives.

Ambiguity detection

Identify poorly worded or overly complex questions.

Version comparison

Test multiple variants and choose the best one.

Archived results

Keep simulation history for future reference.

Risk-free

Experiment freely without affecting your real participants.

Team training

Use simulation to illustrate typical cases in training.

Frequently asked questions about Simulation Mode

Where do AI personae come from?

They are generated from language models according to your instructions: audience type, context, objectives.

Can I mix real and simulation?

Yes, use simulation to prepare a questionnaire that will then be used in Real Mode.

Are simulated results kept?

Yes, they are clearly marked as from AI personae and archived for reference.

Test your next questionnaire without bothering your participants

Create a test questionnaire, define 3 to 5 typical personae and see how they would respond.
