Post-Trial User Interviews
Without Scheduling a Single Call

The trial black box

Your free trial ends and the user disappears. Did they love it? Were they confused? Did they find a competitor? A simple "How was your trial?" checkbox survey won't give you those answers.

Voice interviews capture the nuance. Trial users explain their experience naturally — the moments of confusion, the features that delighted them, and the reasons they decided to upgrade (or leave).

Recommended questions

1. "What were you hoping to accomplish with our product?" — Reveals intent
2. "Did you achieve that? Why or why not?" — Surfaces blockers
3. "What almost made you sign up for a paid plan?" — Identifies conversion triggers
4. "What would you change about the trial experience?" — Improves onboarding
5. "Would you recommend us? Why?" — Informal NPS

Welcome & thank-you pages

Voice makes trial interviews feel personal

Enable AI conversational voice (TTS) so the form reads questions aloud. Post-trial users are already disengaged — a warm voice brings them back in and increases completion rates.

AI Insights will automatically cluster trial feedback into themes: "onboarding confusion," "missing features," "pricing concerns," and "competitor comparison" — so you can act fast.

Best widget: Auto-Trigger

Use the Auto-Trigger widget to show the feedback form automatically when the user's trial ends. Configure it to appear on their dashboard with a time delay trigger (e.g., pop up 5 seconds after they log in post-trial).

You can also send the direct form link in your trial-ending email for users who don't log back in.

Convert insights into action

Use AI Insights to identify the top 3 reasons trial users don't convert. Share these with your product and growth teams during weekly standups.

Export to CSV and cross-reference with your CRM data to see if feedback patterns correlate with user segments (company size, industry, acquisition channel).

Trigger via your app or email

• Webhooks: When a trial ends in your system, trigger the Sayify form via API
• Zapier: Connect trial-end events from Stripe or your billing system to send the form link
• Email alerts: Get notified the instant a post-trial response comes in
• CRM: Auto-tag contacts who provided post-trial feedback and route to your sales or CS team

Embed in trial-ending emails

Use identity pre-fill to pass the user's name and email from your email tool into the form. When they click the link, they're already identified — no friction.

Use the Sayify API to create unique, pre-filled form sessions for each trial user programmatically.
