How it works
From campaign setup to candid responses in three steps
Built for busy practitioners who want structured stakeholder input without configuring an enterprise HR platform.
Pick a proven format
Select from three built-in templates—Google-style Feedback, Start/Stop/Continue, or Net Promoter Score (NPS). Toggle whether respondents can submit video recordings and whether responses are anonymous.
Send unique per-person links
Enter your recipients' email addresses. Evaluation Guru emails each person a unique invitation link—and gives you copyable links you can drop directly into Slack or a client email. Respondents never need to sign up.
Nudge stragglers & review results
See who is pending, in progress, or completed in real time. Send one-click email reminders to anyone who hasn't finished, and review written answers alongside inline playable video responses in one organized view.
Tone, nuance, and candor rarely survive a text box.
When a peer or client spends two minutes talking through feedback on camera, you hear the warmth, hesitation, and emphasis that written bullets flatten out. And for busy executives who dread typing five paragraphs, speaking is often faster and more natural.
Respondent's choice: written or video
When video is enabled on a campaign, each respondent chooses whether to type their answers or record up to 3 minutes of video in their browser.
On-screen prompts & instant replay
The template's questions stay visible right below the camera preview. Respondents can watch their recording back and re-record before submitting.
Eager background upload & secure playback
Uploading begins the moment recording stops with a live progress bar, and videos stream directly inside your campaign results view.

Three built-in formats
Structured questions that get straight to the point
Every campaign starts with one of three proven templates—short enough that respondents actually finish, specific enough that you get actionable answers.
Google-style Feedback
Modeled on Google's peer review framework for comprehensive leadership and performance check-ins.
Included prompts
- What are this person's key strengths?
- What should this person continue doing?
- What should this person start doing?
- What should this person stop doing?
- Additional comments (optional)
Best for: Executive coaching 360s and annual or mid-year leadership reviews.
Start / Stop / Continue
Lightweight, forward-looking behavioral prompts that keep respondents focused on concrete habits.
Included prompts
- What should this person START doing?
- What should this person STOP doing?
- What should this person CONTINUE doing?
Best for: Quarterly check-ins, first-90-day onboarding reads, and team retrospectives.
Net Promoter Score (NPS)
A 0–10 recommendation rating paired with an open follow-up question to capture the "why" behind the score.
Included prompts
- How likely are you to recommend this person to others? (0–10 scale)
- What is the primary reason for your score?
Best for: Client advisory check-ins, post-engagement pulse checks, and partner reviews.
Who it's for
Designed for independent advisors and hands-on leaders
Enterprise HR suites force 50-seat annual contracts and months of setup. Google Forms leaves you chasing emails in a spreadsheet. Evaluation Guru sits right in between.
Executive Coaches
Gather candid stakeholder perspectives at the start or midpoint of a coaching engagement—and let sponsors or peers record nuance on video.
Consultants & Agencies
Run structured client satisfaction check-ins or post-project retrospectives with NPS and Start/Stop/Continue without survey fatigue.
Fractional Leaders
Step into a new client organization and collect a fast, structured read from direct reports and peers in your first 30 days.
Small-Team Managers
Run lightweight peer and upward feedback rounds in five minutes without buying a full HRIS or performance management suite.
FAQ
Straight answers before you sign up
Do respondents need to create an account or install anything?
No. Each recipient receives an email with a unique one-time invitation link. They can type their written response or record a video directly in their desktop or mobile browser. Once submitted, the link locks automatically so answers cannot be overwritten.
Can I write my own custom questions?
Not yet. Today, Evaluation Guru ships with three fixed, proven formats: Google-style Feedback (5 questions), Start/Stop/Continue (3 questions), and Net Promoter Score (2 questions). Custom question templates are on our roadmap for the Pro plan.
How does anonymous feedback work — especially with video?
When you enable Anonymous Feedback on a campaign, respondent names and email addresses are stripped from the responses view. Keep in mind that a video recording naturally shows the speaker’s face and voice—respondents on an anonymous campaign can always choose a written response instead.
How long can video responses be, and where are they stored?
Respondents can record up to 3 minutes of video per evaluation (up to 100 MB in WebM or MP4 format). Recordings are stored on our servers in Germany (Hetzner) and streamed only to authorized campaign organizers.
