Qualtrics
Experience management platform for enterprise-grade customer, employee and market research surveys.
why this verdict
Keep paying — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the forms job, so this one still earns its $420/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- AI survey-generation tools write questions in seconds but can't match Qualtrics' statistical rigor and data model. OpenAI, April 16, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? yes
- 2 of 3 listed replacements have a usable free tier: SurveyMonkey and Typeform.
- What the call is worth $5,040/yr
- $420/mo at the entry paid tier — $5,040 a year per seat.

The backstory
Qualtrics built its business on statistically rigorous survey design and a data model that connects customer, employee and market research across an entire enterprise, work that goes well beyond writing a list of questions. AI tools can draft plausible survey questions instantly, but they cannot replicate the sampling methodology, weighting, and cross-study analytics that make Qualtrics data defensible in front of a board or regulator.
