PDF Reports

UserLoop can generate a professional slide-deck-style PDF report of your survey data. Reports are a great way to share results with your team, stakeholders, or clients without giving them access to your dashboard.


Generating a Report


1. Go to Surveys and select the survey you want to report on.


2. Click the Analytics tab, then click the PDF Report button in the top-right corner.


3. Configure your report settings.

4. Click Generate Report PDF. The report will be generated and sent to the email address you specify.


Report Settings


When generating a report, you can customize what's included:


  • Send report to — The email address where the PDF will be delivered.
  • Survey — The survey to generate the report for.
  • Date Range — Filter responses to a specific time period.
  • Include sales and AOV data where available — Add revenue and Average Order Value columns to answer breakdowns.
  • Show all open ended responses in the report — Include every open-ended response instead of just a sample.
  • Include timeseries charts — Add line charts showing how responses change over time.
  • Include AI generated insights based on your survey data — Enrich the report with AI-powered topic analysis and answer insights.


Advanced Settings


Click Advanced Settings to access additional options:


  • Deck Color Theme — Choose an accent color for the report. This sets the color for charts, tags, and highlights throughout the PDF.
  • Brand Logo — Upload your company logo to display on the report cover page.


What's in the Report


The report is formatted as a landscape slide deck with a professional layout.


Example PDF report cover page


Cover page — Shows your survey name, the date range, and overview cards with key metrics: Total Responses, Unique Respondents, Total Views, and Response Rate.


Question pages — Each question gets its own page (or pages, for questions with many answers). These include:


  • Answer breakdown table — Every answer option with its count, percentage (with a visual bar), and optionally Revenue and AOV.
  • NPS snapshot — For NPS and Number Score questions, a dedicated card showing the NPS score, average score, and a Promoters / Passives / Detractors breakdown.
  • Timeseries charts — When enabled, line charts showing how each answer option trends over time.
  • Open-ended responses — A list of free-text responses, either as a sample or the complete set.


AI Insights (when enabled) — For each question, the report includes:


  • Topic analysis — For open-ended questions, a bar chart of the most common themes with frequency, AOV, and sample customer quotes.
  • Answer insights — For choice questions, cards showing key findings with confidence scores, business impact recommendations, supporting metrics, and sample data.


Tips


  • Use date ranges to compare periods — generate one report for last month and another for the current month to spot trends.
  • Enable AI insights for the richest reports. These add context and recommendations that go beyond raw numbers.
  • Match your brand using the color theme and logo options so reports look professional when shared externally.
