Hear from the people an English-only survey misses, without building and merging a copy for every language. Each person answers in the language they read best, and every answer lands in one set of results.
Every new account starts with a 14-day trial of Growth, multi-language surveys included.
The usual way to run a survey in several languages is one copy per language: five links, five exports, one spreadsheet to stitch them together, and every typo fixed five times. In SurveyRock it's one survey. You keep one set of questions and one set of logic, send one link, and get one set of results that you can still split by language whenever you need to.
Choice and rating answers combine across languages, because they're stored by choice, not by wording. Your company-wide score updates as answers come in, with nothing to merge. When you want to see one group, filter by language or export with a Language column.
No translation software needed. The editor shows every text in the order respondents see it, with the original on the left and a box for the translation on the right. Filters for Not translated, Machine drafts and Out of date show what's left.
Send a PO file for translation software or a spreadsheet for Excel. When it comes back, SurveyRock shows what the file would add, change or leave alone, and saves nothing until you confirm.
Draft with AI writes first drafts of the texts you haven't translated, and someone who speaks the language reads them through. You see the AI credits it will use before anything is sent. Only the survey's own text goes to the AI provider, never anyone's answers. A draft counts as translated only once someone edits it or accepts it.
A new language stays hidden until you mark it ready. SurveyRock won't publish while a language you're showing still has untranslated questions or drafts nobody has accepted. If you edit the original later, the translations that need another look are flagged.
There's no second link to send and no language page to get past. The survey opens in the language set in its link (add ?lang=de), the language the respondent picked before, or their browser's language, and by default there's a menu at the top for switching. Buttons, error messages and the completion screen switch too, in all 21 of SurveyRock's languages, right-to-left scripts like Arabic and Hebrew included. For any other language, you choose which of the 21 they use.
Build the survey in your main language as usual, with its logic, piping and quotas. Then open Survey settings, Language & Messages, and add the languages you need.
Type translations in the editor, send a file to a translator, or start from AI drafts. You can mix them: draft everything with AI, then have a colleague who speaks the language go through the drafts. Brand names and product codes that read the same everywhere take one click ("Keep the original"), and you can do it for every matching text at once.
Preview the survey in any language, hidden ones included. When a language is ready, tick "Shown to respondents". SurveyRock won't publish while a shown language has a question, choice or other survey text that hasn't been translated, or a draft nobody has accepted. It tells you which language and how many texts are left, so you can finish them or hide that language for now.
Each response records the language it was given in. Choice and rating answers combine across languages, so your NPS is one number. To look at one language, add a Language filter under Advanced Filters. Exports carry a Language column.
Step by step: Offer a survey in more than one language
Its translations are marked "Original changed since" and show up under the Out of date filter. Publishing warns you about them but doesn't stop you, because the edit may only have been a typo fix.
Yes. Display, skip and branch rules based on choices, ratings and numbers work the same in every language, because they compare stored choices, not words. The one exception is a rule that matches text the respondent types, such as "if the answer contains 'refund'". Someone answering in Spanish will type it in Spanish. SurveyRock warns you about display, skip and branch rules like that before you publish.
No. Open-text answers stay exactly as the respondent wrote them, in their language.
They appear in the translation editor under their own headings, and they apply as soon as you save, because respondents read them live. They don't hold up publishing. If one isn't translated yet, a respondent reading that language sees SurveyRock's standard message in their language instead.
No. Only the survey's own text is sent: questions, choices, labels and your messages, never any answers. It uses AI credits from your plan, and you see the estimate before anything is sent. Translating by hand, in the editor or in a file, uses no credits. A workspace admin can turn Draft with AI off for the whole workspace.
They follow the survey's main language. The headings, labels and email that SurveyRock writes for the leader's report page, the team PDF and the survey's PDF report come out in that language (any of the 21), with its own number and date formats, and they read right to left when the survey does.
The SurveyRock dashboard you build surveys in is in English. Multi-language surveys change what your respondents see, not the app you work in.
Growth, Pro and Enterprise. Every new account starts with a 14-day trial of Growth, so you can build and translate a survey before you pay. On every plan, a survey written in a single language can be in any language you like, with SurveyRock's own buttons and messages in 21 languages and right-to-left text handled for you.
