Presentation feedback form: collect audience notes for speakers

A speaker gets a round of applause and no idea what landed. A short form after the talk fixes that. The audience opens a link, rates the main points and leaves one tip. The speaker reads notes while the talk is fresh.

Who should hand it out?

Teachers running student presentations, event organisers, club hosts and anyone who wants peer feedback on a talk. Put the link on the last slide. Audience members can fill it in, or hand it to their AI, which might ask "What was the main message?" Then "How was the pace?" Then "What is one tip for next time?" It shows the answers and sends only after a yes. See agent-fillable forms.

What does the audience rate?

Message, delivery, visuals and answers to questions, each on a simple scale. Two open boxes ask what stuck and what to change. A pace question and a listen-again question add quick signals. A tick box lets people say whether the speaker may read their comments.

What do I do with the answers?

Download the CSV after the session and filter by talk title to give each speaker their own rows. Share ratings with comments, not names. Browse forms for schools and forms for events. A teacher feedback form gives a wider view of a teacher, and a student feedback form covers a whole class.

Questions

Can one form cover a whole conference or class?

Yes. Audience members type the talk title and speaker. Filter the CSV by speaker_name to split the feedback, or create one form per talk if you prefer separate links.

How should I share the feedback with speakers?

Pass on the ratings and only the comments marked as shareable. Group similar comments, lead with what worked, and remove anything personal before you forward it.

When should the form close?

Set close_at for the end of the day, so feedback arrives while the talk is fresh in people's minds.

Or paste the JSON

Give this to your AI. It needs the AI Form API MCP server or an API key. It makes the form and sends you the link.
