About the webinar
Setting up data collection workflows—from designing XLSForms to creating custom field plug-ins—has traditionally required significant time and, more often than not, specialized survey programming expertise. But what if you could build your ideal data workflow or custom survey app simply by describing what you need?
With the public beta release of the SurveyCTO AI agent skill, that speed and accessibility is now a reality.
In this live demo, we will introduce you to our newest AI development. We’ll show you how to use AI to quickly and easily create SurveyCTO forms, field plug-ins, workflows, and more.
We’ll also share our thoughts on how data platforms are evolving to incorporate AI, how we’re thinking about AI at SurveyCTO, and give some insights into our AI roadmap.
