Developer surveys that live in Slack
Ritmiq runs your entire DevEx survey in Slack DMs. AI generates the questions, chases responses, asks follow-ups, and builds the report.
Hi! I have a few quick questions for you about your local dev setup. It should only take a few minutes.
Overall, how satisfied are you with your local development environment?
Which of these issues slow you down the most day-to-day?
Can you describe a specific time your local setup slowed you down or broke unexpectedly?
Reply to this message with your answer.
Docker compose takes ~8 minutes to spin up on my M2. Half the team has started skipping integration tests locally because of it.
That's a big time sink. Has the team tried any workarounds, like running a shared dev cluster or using mocks instead?
A few of us tried Orbstack, which helped a lot. But it's not on the approved tools list so most people are still on Docker Desktop.
✅ Thanks for completing the survey! Your responses have been recorded. We really appreciate your time.
How it works
Four steps from goal to report — most of them happen without you.
You describe what you want to learn
Write your research goal in plain English. Ritmiq's AI generates validated, bias-minimized survey questions. Edit them or send them as-is.
Ritmiq DMs your team in Slack
No links to external tools. No app installs. Surveys show up as DMs, with smart scheduling that respects timezones and a hard cap of one survey per person per week.
How would you rate your onboarding experience? (1-5)
3. The docs were good but the local setup took a full day.
AI asks follow-ups in real time
When a response is interesting but vague, Ritmiq asks a clarifying question in the same thread. No meetings, no context switches.
Which part of the local setup was the bottleneck?
Docker compose kept failing on M-series Macs. Took 4 hours to debug.
You get a report the same day
Responses are automatically themed, quantified, and delivered as an actionable report. Raw quotes linked back to source. Hours after survey close, not weeks.
The problem
Engineers stop believing anything will change.
When feedback doesn't lead to visible action, people stop participating. Trust erodes. Survey fatigue wins.
Writing good survey questions is a research skill. You spent a week on the last one and your VP still asked "what are we supposed to do with this?"
Response rates drop off a cliff. You're personally pinging people in standup to fill out a Google Form they've already ignored twice.
Hundreds of free-text responses sit unread. Your engineers wrote real feedback. It's in a spreadsheet you promised yourself you'd get to last Friday.
Interesting responses turn into scheduling overhead. Someone wrote something worth digging into. Now it's a calendar invite, a 30-minute slot, and three rounds of rescheduling.
Insights arrive after the decision is already made. You finally have the data, but the roadmap was locked last week and your window to influence it is gone.
Built different
Lives in Slack
Engineers respond right where they already work. No external links, no app installs, no context switching. Teams using Slack-native surveys consistently see 70%+ response rates.

Frequently asked questions
How does Ritmiq prevent survey fatigue?
Hard limit of one survey per person per week. Combined with Slack-native delivery (no context switch to an external tool), response rates stay high without burning out your team.
Do engineers need to install anything?
No. Ritmiq works entirely through Slack DMs. Engineers receive and respond to surveys without leaving Slack.
How does AI question generation work?
Describe your research goal in plain language. Ritmiq generates validated, bias-minimized questions using survey methodology best practices. You can edit them before sending or use them as-is.
What happens with follow-up questions?
When a response warrants clarification, Ritmiq asks a contextual follow-up in the same Slack thread. This captures richer signal without scheduling a meeting.
How fast do I get results?
Reports with themed insights are generated within hours of survey close. No manual synthesis required.
Can I use Ritmiq alongside GetDX or other tools?
Yes. Many teams use Ritmiq for frequent pulse checks alongside annual benchmarking tools. They complement each other.
Is my data secure?
All data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We never train models on your responses. Enterprise plans include SSO and data residency options.
