What is a case study in a testimonial?
A case study is an async customer interview — a structured set of questions you send to a customer, who answers at their own pace by typing or recording a voice memo.
Available on the Ultimate + plan and above. Testimonial automatically transcribes voice answers and delivers a fully attributed, question-by-question transcript directly to you.
No scheduling. No Zoom links. No back-and-forth emails. Your customer answers when it suits them — in as little as 10 minutes.
What makes it powerful
Voice answers, auto-transcribed
Customers speak their answers — Testimonial transcribes everything. Removes the biggest barrier to completion.
Fully async
No scheduling needed. Customers answer in their own time, from any device. Progress is saved automatically.
Attributed transcripts
Every answer is attributed to the respondent and delivered directly to your inbox, ready to use.
Built-in testimonial opt-in
Ask respondents to also leave a testimonial at the end — it's automatically linked to their case study.
NPS integration
Auto-route NPS promoters (9–10) directly to a case study invite — no manual list needed.
Question templates
Three starter templates tailored to common case study types. Fully editable after selection.
The Case Study list
Go to your Space and click Case studies in the left sidebar. This page shows:
All your existing Case studies, each showing their name and active settings at a glance.
A New Case Study button in the top-right to create additional surveys.
Each case study card has an edit (pencil) and delete (trash) icon. Clicking a case opens its management view with five tabs: Analytics, Submissions, Recipients, and Settings.
Creating a Case Study
