Step-by-step workflow for creating feedback forms in encatch

This guide walks you through the complete workflow for creating a feedback form in encatch—from the initial Create Feedback Form button through selecting a creation method, customizing your form, and publishing.

Workflow Overview

Creating a feedback form in encatch follows four main steps:

  1. Create Feedback Form — Open the form creation flow from the sidebar
  2. Select a creation method — Choose AI, Templates, or Manual
  3. Customize form — Use the Form Builder to add questions, configure screens, and adjust settings
  4. Publish — Save and make your form live

Step 1: Create Feedback Form

In the encatch dashboard, click the + Create Feedback Form button in the left sidebar. This opens the Create Feedback Form page, where you can choose how to start building your form.

Step 2: Select a Creation Method

encatch offers three ways to create a feedback form. Choose the one that best fits your needs:

Create Feedback Form - Three creation methods

1. Generate with AI

Describe what feedback you want to collect in plain language. encatch uses AI to draft a form with questions and structure tailored to your description. You can then tweak the result manually before launch.

Best for: Quick starts, exploratory feedback, or when you want AI to suggest question types and flow.

Start drafting with AI - Describe your feedback

2. Using Templates

Start from pre-built templates for common scenarios such as 5-Star Reviews, Help Center Feedback, Feature Requests, NPS, and more. Browse by category, search by name, and select a template to get a ready-made form structure.

Best for: Standard use cases (NPS, CSAT, feature requests, bug reports) where you want a proven starting point.

Using Templates - Template filters and template cards

3. Manual (Create from Scratch)

Build a form from scratch with full control over every question, page, and flow. Start with an empty form and add welcome screens, questions, and end screens as needed.

Best for: Custom use cases or when you want complete control over structure and wording.

Step 3: Customize Form

Regardless of which method you chose, you land in the Form Builder where you can customize your form before publishing.
