Let survey respondents polish feedback in-line

Step 1: Enable the in-survey rephrasing featureVgViva Glint

In the Viva Glint survey builder, turn on the Copilot rephrasing option before launch, then check every open-text question in the preview to confirm the rephrase prompt actually appears on each one — don't assume it applied everywhere just because you toggled it once.

Step 2: Test it as a respondent wouldCopilot

Walk through the survey yourself, write a rough open-text answer, and use the rephrase option to confirm it clarifies wording without changing the actual sentiment or content.

Prompt idea:

Rephrase this comment for clarity without changing its meaning or softening the concern: "the tooling here is honestly a mess and nobody has fixed it in months"

Step 3: Confirm rephrasing preserves respondent intentVgViva Glint

Check that the rephrase suggestion keeps the respondent's actual point and tone — the goal is clarity, not sanitizing legitimate criticism into something vaguer.

Step 4: Launch the surveyVgViva Glint

Roll the survey out with the rephrasing option live, and let respondents accept, edit, or ignore the suggested rewording as they choose.

Check the work

• Test the rephrasing feature yourself before launch to confirm it clarifies rather than dilutes feedback.
• Spot-check a sample of submitted comments post-launch to confirm meaning wasn't lost in translation.
• Confirm respondents can always submit their original wording if they decline the suggestion.
