Want to collect feedback, do market research, or learn more about your users? Surveys are one of the easiest ways to get real answers.

And the best part? You can create a survey in minutes using Google Forms and make it even faster with the help of AI tools like ChatGPT or Gemini.

In this step-by-step guide, I’ll show you how to use AI to generate survey questions and build your Google Form quickly.

No tech skills needed. Plus, I’ll show you an even faster way to do it with Formester at the end.

Step 1: Log in to ChatGPT or Gemini

  • First, go to ChatGPT or Gemini and log into your account.

  • These tools can create full survey question sets based on just a single prompt.

Step 2: Generate Survey Questions Using AI

If you don’t have questions ready, use this prompt: “Generate a detailed survey for [your topic]”

Example: “Generate a detailed survey for SaaS product market research”

The AI will instantly give you a complete list of questions tailored to your topic.

Step 3: Add Custom Content (Optional)

Already have notes or content you want to include? Just tweak the prompt: “Generate a detailed survey for [your topic] using this content: [your text]”

This helps the AI include your points or product-specific details in the survey.

Step 4: Ask AI to Create a Google Form Script

Once you’re happy with the survey questions, ask the AI: “Generate a Google Form script for the above survey”

This will give you a ready-to-use Google Apps Script. It’s a bit of code that automatically creates your Google Form with all the questions filled in.

Step 5: Open Google Apps Script

Now, head over to Google Apps Script:

  • Go to your Google Drive

  • Click New → More → Google Apps Script

  • You’ll now see a blank code editor.

Step 6: Paste the Script

Inside the editor:

  • Delete any text that’s already there

  • Paste the script you got from ChatGPT or Gemini

  • Click the Save icon

  • Name your project (e.g., “SaaS Survey Builder”)

  • Delete any text that’s already there

Step 7: Run the Script

Click the Run button. The first time, Google will ask for permission. Just follow the steps and allow it. Once done, the script will auto-create a Google Form with your questions.

Step 8: Open and Edit the Form

Go back to your Google Drive. You’ll see a brand-new Google Form with all your AI-generated questions already added.

Click to open it and:

  • Edit or remove any question

  • Change the form title and description

  • Pick a color theme or add a logo

  • Preview the form to see how it looks

Step 9: Share Your Survey

Once you’re happy with it, click the Send button on the top right.

With this you can:

  • Share a link

  • Email it directly

  • Post it on social media

  • Embed it on your website

Step 10: Collect and Review Responses

After people fill out the form, click the Responses tab to see answers. You can also click the Google Sheets icon to view the data in a spreadsheet. This makes it easy to sort, filter, and analyze the results.

If you’re stuck analyzing responses, ask ChatGPT again: “Help me analyze this customer feedback survey result”
