#How Verasight Self-Serve works

  1. Create a researcher account. Sign up as a researcher.
  2. Build your survey. Use Qualtrics or any survey platform that can record link values and support our redirects. Doc2Survey, Verasight's free AI survey programming tool, can automatically convert your Word doc into a fully programmed Qualtrics .QSF file.
  3. Configuration. Choose a sample type and sample size. Enter your question counts. Verasight Self-Serve shows your per-respondent rate and total cost as you go. Then paste your survey's anonymous link, the one link anyone can use to take your survey. Connect your survey so it records vsid and surveyid, the values we add to the link.
The Survey configuration step shows the four sample type cards with their starting prices, a sample size of 250, and the question counts for multiple choice questions, matrix items and open-ended questions.

  1. Redirects Setup. Add the Completes redirect link. If your survey uses them, also add the links for Do Not Consent to Participate and Fail Attention Check.
  2. Testing your survey. Test each redirect from Self-Serve. Once every test shows Completed, you can move on to payment.
  3. Payment & Launch. Pay in Self-Serve. To pay by purchase order or invoice instead, arrange it before you launch. Then click Begin Data Collection.
  4. Fielding. We estimate that fielding takes 48 to 72 hours. If your survey has not reached its sample size after 48 hours, we extend fielding automatically.
  5. Download your data file. When your file is ready, you get an email titled Your Verasight Data is Ready. Your data file has one row per completed response. Each row has the respondent's vsid and profile variables. Weighted surveys also have a column labeled weight.
  6. Analyze and report. Join your data file to your survey responses on vsid. Then use our templates to describe the sample in your paper or institutional review board (IRB) application.

Your progress saves automatically as you go, and you can click Save draft at any point and come back later. You pay at the Payment & Launch step, after setup and testing, and you launch when you are ready.
