Menti Form is a great choice when you want to build a survey-style experience that people can complete in their own time. Unlike a Menti Live presentation, where the presenter guides participants through slides in real time, a Menti Form is designed for asynchronous input and structured data collection.
Create a new Menti Form
To get started, click the New Menti + button on your dashboard and select Menti Form.
A new form will open in the editor with your first question ready to edit.
From here, you can add questions, text blocks, pages, and images to build out your form.
Add and edit questions and content blocks
To add a new question or content block, click on the + Create button in the top-left of the editor.
You can choose three question types: Multiple Choice, Open Ended and Scales (coming soon). You can also add a Text or Image block, or add a new Page to the form.
Once added, click into the question or text field and type your question or text.
You can also add a short description underneath to give respondents extra context or instructions. For example, you might use the description field to explain what kind of answer you are looking for, how the answer will be used, or whether the question is optional.
For Multiple Choice questions, click into the answer option fields and add your answer options there. You can also add more answer options by clicking the + Add option button at the bottom.
Choose your content type
Menti Form supports different types of content depending on what kind of information you want to collect.
Multiple Choice questions
Use Multiple Choice when you want respondents to choose from a set of predefined options.
This is useful for:
collecting clear, structured answers
segmenting respondents by team, role, location or experience level
asking preference questions
creating quick pulse checks
making results easier to compare and analyze
Examples:
“Which team are you in?”
“How long have you worked here?”
“How did you hear about us?”
You can edit the answer options directly in the form and click + Add option to add more choices.
Check out this article for more details on Multiple Choice questions in Menti Form.
In Menti Form you can add conditional logic to your survey, meaning that the survey can adapt to different participants' answers. To learn more, please check out this article.
Open Ended questions
Use Open Ended when you want respondents to write their own answer.
This is useful for:
collecting detailed feedback
asking follow-up questions
gathering ideas, suggestions or concerns
understanding the reasoning behind a previous answer
giving respondents space to answer in their own words
Examples:
“What is your current role?”
“What would make this process easier?”
“Do you have any additional feedback?”
Open-ended questions are best when you want qualitative input rather than fixed answer choices.
Check out this article for more details on Open Ended questions in Menti Form.
Scales questions
Use Scales when you want respondents to rate one or more statements on a numeric scale.
This is useful for:
measuring satisfaction, agreement or confidence
tracking how opinions change over time
comparing how respondents rate several statements side by side
running employee engagement or customer feedback surveys
turning opinions into data that’s easy to compare and analyze
Examples:
“How satisfied are you with the onboarding process?”
“How confident do you feel using our new tools?”
“To what extent do you agree with the following statements?”
You can edit the statements directly in the form and click + Add statement to add more. You can also adjust the scale range and the labels at each end, for example “Strongly disagree” and “Strongly agree”.
Check out this article for more details on Scales questions in Menti Form.
Ranking questions
Use Ranking when you want respondents to put a set of options in order of preference or importance.
This is useful for:
finding out what matters most to your respondents
setting priorities for projects, features or initiatives
comparing options against each other, not one at a time
making decisions when resources or time are limited
seeing where there’s agreement across a group
Examples:
“Rank these benefits from most to least important to you.”
“Which topics should we cover first at the next team meeting?”
“Rank these features in order of how often you use them.”
You can edit the options directly in the form and click + Add option to add more. Respondents then drag the options into the order they prefer.
Check out this article for more details on Ranking questions in Menti Form.
Text blocks
Use Text blocks when you want to add information without asking a question or you want to add context to one of your questions.
This is useful for:
adding a welcome message
explaining the purpose of the form
giving instructions before a section
adding context between questions
thanking respondents or setting expectations
For example, you might start your form with:
"Welcome to this survey. This is to get to know the team members a little better."
Images
There are two ways to add images to your Form.
Create an Image block from the + Create button:
2. Add an image to a specific question from the Design section of the Edit panel on the right side of the editor.
Video blocks
Use Video blocks to show a video to respondents as part of your form. To add one, click the + Create button and select Video, then paste the link to your video.
This is useful for:
adding a welcome or introduction message from the host
showing a product demo or walkthrough before asking for feedback
sharing training or onboarding content and then checking understanding
giving context that is easier to show than to explain in text

Pages
You can split your Form up unto different pages. Each page can have a collection of questions, images and text blocks, so it's up to you to decide what content you want to be together on each page. Participants can move back and forth between pages when responding.
This is useful when your form has several topics or when you want to make a longer form feel easier to complete. For example, you could create one page for background questions, one page for feedback, and one page for final comments.
Pages help keep the form organized and make it easier to manage the structure from the left-hand sidebar. You can drag questions and blocks around in the left hand panel and move them from one Page to another.
Sharing results with participants
You can give participants the option to see the results of the Menti Form after they have responded. To activate this, click on the Settings button in the top-left corner of the editor and select After responding under Show results to participants:
When activated, participants will have the option to view the Form's results after they have finished responding:
Menti Form vs. Menti Live
Mentimeter lets you create both Forms and Live presentations, but they are designed for different situations.
Use Menti Form when you want to:
collect responses asynchronously
create a survey-style experience
let respondents complete questions in their own time
gather structured feedback before or after a meeting, workshop, class or event
organize questions into pages and sections
Use Menti Live when you want to:
present to an audience in real time
control the pace of the experience as the presenter
run live polls, quizzes, word clouds, or interactive slides
show results during a meeting, class, workshop or presentation
In short, Menti Live is for live interaction in real time. Menti Form is for structured response collection in the respondents' own time.
