One survey link. Everyone answers in their own language

Their own time. Your one set of results.

A Nabad survey stays open for a window you choose. You write the questions once, send one link, and each person opens it on their phone, picks their language, and answers when it suits them. Eighty-six languages, no app, no account, and every answer lands in the same place.

No credit card · Nothing to install for the people answering · Free plan included

Write your questions once

Build the whole survey in your own language, one question after another.

A survey in one language is a survey of the people comfortable in that language. Everyone else either skips it or writes something shorter and vaguer than what they actually think, and the result reads like agreement.

The usual fix is worse: send the same survey three times, once per language, and end up with three result sets nobody can add together without a spreadsheet and an afternoon.

Nabad does the obvious thing instead. One survey, one link, one set of results — and each person answers in the language they think in.

Why Nabad

A multilingual survey, not a translated one

Four things that decide whether the quiet half of your list answers honestly or not at all.

Everyone picks their own language

Eighty-six languages, including English, French, Arabic, Spanish, Hindi and Chinese, chosen by each person on their own phone. Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu and Pashto render right to left natively, not as a stylesheet flipped at the last minute.

Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for

A link or a six-digit code opens in any mobile browser. No download, no account, no email address collected before someone is allowed to have an opinion.

Answered at their own pace

People start, stop, and come back where they left off. A survey stays open for the window you set, and you can close it early the moment you have enough.

One set of results, all languages together

Choices add up across languages instead of splitting into a table each. Written answers are translated, so a comment in Arabic and a comment in French sit in the same list and get read by the same person.

How it works

Three steps, about five minutes

1

Write it once

Multiple choice, open text, question and answer, ranking, rating scales. Write each question in one language and set a closing date.

2

Send one link

Share the link or the six-digit code by email, chat or QR code. Everyone gets the same one, whatever language they will answer in.

3

Read one result

Watch answers arrive, or hide them until the survey closes so early replies do not steer later ones. Then close it and read one set of results.

Which one

A survey, or a live session

Same questions, same eighty-six languages, same results screen. The difference is whether the people answering are in a room with you right now.

Survey

People are not in a room

  • Open for a window you choose
  • Answered at each person's own pace
  • Results can stay hidden until it closes
  • Reaches the people who could not attend
Live session

People are in a room

  • One question at a time, together
  • Results move on the screen as they vote
  • Word clouds, group formation, random picker
  • For talks, classes, town halls, workshops

Where it helps

Built for lists that are not all one language

Employee feedback

Onboarding, engagement and exit surveys across a workforce that does not all work in head-office English.

Public consultation

Municipal and citizen consultation where language should not quietly decide whose view gets counted.

Course evaluation

Cégeps, universities and training programs collecting honest feedback after the term rather than during it.

Member surveys

Associations, unions and community organizations polling a membership spread across several languages.

Post-event feedback

Conferences and congresses sending one form to delegations that arrived speaking four different languages.

Client and patient input

Service feedback where the people you most need to hear from are the ones least served in the default language.

Is Nabad only for multilingual rooms?

No. Nabad is your all-in-one: one tool for every room you run.

One language

  • Runs in your language, nothing to set up
  • Your audience never sees a language menu
  • Every question type: polls, word clouds, rankings, Q&A

More than one

  • Everyone joins in their own language, automatically
  • Open answers are translated live as they arrive
  • One screen of results for the whole room
Common questions

Multilingual surveys, answered

Is Nabad only for multilingual rooms?

No. You choose how many languages a session runs in. Pick one and untick the rest, and there is nothing to switch between, so the language picker never appears. The day the room is not all one language, you turn the others on and everyone reads and answers in their own.

Is there a survey tool where each person answers in their own language?

Yes. You write the survey once and send one link. Each person picks their own language from eighty-six when they open it, including English, French, Arabic, Spanish, Hindi and Chinese, and answers there. You get one set of results rather than one spreadsheet per language.

What is the difference between a Nabad survey and a live session?

A live session moves through questions together, with everyone in the room answering the same question at the same moment. A survey stays open for a window you choose. People answer whenever they can, at their own pace, and can stop and come back. Same questions, same languages, same results screen.

Do people need an app or an account to answer a survey?

No. They open the link or type the six-digit code in any mobile browser and start answering. No download, no sign-up, no email address. Only the person creating the survey needs an account.

Can open-text answers written in different languages be read together?

Yes. Free-text answers are translated, so a comment written in Arabic and a comment written in French sit side by side in the same list and can both be read by whoever is going through the results.

How long can a survey stay open?

Thirty days on the free plan, longer on the paid plans. You set a closing date when you create the survey and can close it early at any time. The details are on the pricing page.

Can participants see the results before the survey closes?

That is your choice. You can hide the results until the survey closes, so that early answers do not steer later ones, or leave them visible as they come in.

What kinds of questions can a survey ask?

Multiple choice, open text, question and answer, ranking and rating scales. The question types that only make sense with a room watching a shared screen — word clouds, group formation and the random picker — stay in live sessions.
