From your documents to a working study in minutes
Bring what you already have, like a protocol, a survey instrument, or a data dictionary. Designer builds your surveys and sets up the project basics for you, so you can spend your time refining instead of rebuilding.
HOW IT WORKS
Upload it. We build it. You refine it.
Upload what you have. Designer meets your study where it is:
- Just a protocol? Name a PHQ-9, GAD-7, or PROMIS measure in it and Designer recognizes the validated instrument and builds it to spec.
- Have the instruments, consent forms, or a data dictionary? Upload those and it configures them directly.
- Coming from REDCap or Qualtrics? Bring your .xml or .qsf export and your existing surveys come with you.
- Want your branding in place? Add your logo and colors and Designer applies them.
We accept PDF, DOCX, CSV, XLSX, plus REDCap (data dictionary or .xml), Qualtrics (.qsf), and more.
Designer builds it for you. In a minute or two, you get drafted surveys, plus project basics like invitations and the Home and Tasks tabs, ready to go.
Refine and launch. Everything lands in the editors you already know, so you can adjust wording, logic, and design, then publish.
You stay in control
Same secure MyDataHelps™ platform you already trust. Quickstart just turns your documents into a starting point, and that’s all it does. You review and approve every question and every setting before anything goes live.
TWO WAYS TO GET A HEAD START
Whether you’re starting out or just adding a survey
Project Quickstart
Upload the project documents you already have, and Designer drafts your surveys and sets up your basic project settings to build on.
Survey Generator
Upload, paste, or describe what you need, and Designer adds editable surveys with navigation logic and calculated fields built in.
