Introducing agent and attribution
SurveyMonkey

SurveyMonkey

Keep asking "How did you hear about us?" in SurveyMonkey. Finseo imports the answers via Zapier or Make and attributes conversions and revenue to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and other AI engines.

Overview

What you getwith the SurveyMonkey integration

Finseo connects to SurveyMonkey through Zapier or Make. SurveyMonkey native webhooks only send a response ID, not the answers, so a Zap or scenario with the trigger "SurveyMonkey, New Response with details" fetches the full response and forwards it with a Webhooks POST action. The JSON body carries channel (the "How did you hear about us?" answer), freetext (the open-text answer), and respondentEmail. Finseo normalizes the answer into channel buckets and merges it with later conversions via email.

Use cases

What you can dowith SurveyMonkey and Finseo

01

Customer surveys with an AI source question

Add "ChatGPT or another AI assistant" as an option to your SurveyMonkey "How did you hear about us?" question. Finseo counts those responses under AI Search and names the engine where the answer specifies one.

02

Revenue attribution by email

When a SurveyMonkey respondent later converts (an order, deal, or payment sent to the same Finseo webhook), Finseo merges the two by email within 90 days and attributes the revenue to the AI engine named in the survey.

03

Onboarding and NPS surveys

Many B2B teams ask the source question in onboarding or NPS surveys rather than at checkout. Those SurveyMonkey answers flow into Finseo the same way and enrich attribution for SaaS sign-ups.

04

Open-text AI mentions

Respondents who type "asked Perplexity for recommendations" in an open-text field are captured via the freetext field. Finseo reads the text and classifies the response under AI Search.

05

AEO reporting with self-reported data

Combine SurveyMonkey self-reported attribution with AI visibility scores in Finseo to show how Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) work translates into customers who found you through AI answers.

Why it matters

Why SurveyMonkey customersneed AI visibility tracking

SurveyMonkey is one of the most widely used survey platforms in the world, and "How did you hear about us?" is a question many teams already ask in it. Those answers are the most reliable signal for channels that never pass a referrer, and AI answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews are exactly that. The catch is that SurveyMonkey webhooks only send a response ID. Finseo solves this with a Zapier or Make step that fetches the full answers, so you get revenue per AI engine from a survey you are already running.

FAQ

SurveyMonkey and AI search visibilityquestions people ask before choosing a tool

Finseo offers a native SurveyMonkey integration, connected through Zapier or Make, that imports every "How did you hear about us?" answer and attributes conversions and revenue to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. Responses merge with later orders, deals, or payments by email, and the Finseo Attribution dashboard shows revenue per AI engine.

Add "ChatGPT or another AI assistant" as an option to your SurveyMonkey source question, then build a Zap or Make scenario on "SurveyMonkey, New Response with details" that POSTs channel, freetext, and respondentEmail to Finseo. When an order, deal, or payment with the same email arrives within 90 days, Finseo attributes the revenue to ChatGPT or Perplexity.

Yes. Finseo is a Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) platform with a SurveyMonkey integration. SurveyMonkey stores the source answer in exports, while Finseo tracks your visibility in ChatGPT and Perplexity and merges SurveyMonkey answers with conversions. Together they show revenue per AI engine from a survey you are already running.

Click Connect on the SurveyMonkey card in Finseo to get your webhook URL. In Zapier or Make choose the trigger "SurveyMonkey, New Response with details", add a Webhooks POST (JSON) action with the Finseo URL, and map channel, freetext, and respondentEmail in the body. Turn the Zap on and submit a test response.

Three fields from the Zap or Make body: channel (the "How did you hear about us?" answer), freetext (the open-text answer, if any), and respondentEmail. Finseo normalizes the answer into channel buckets and uses the email as a merge key within a 90-day window. Data flows one way from SurveyMonkey to Finseo.

Yes. Finseo includes all integrations, including SurveyMonkey, on every plan with no per-integration fees. On the Zapier side, the Webhooks action is a premium app and requires a paid Zapier plan, while Make offers an equivalent HTTP module. Check your SurveyMonkey plan for API and integration access.

Yes. Many B2B teams ask the source question in SurveyMonkey onboarding or NPS surveys rather than at checkout. Those answers flow into Finseo the same way, and when a Stripe payment or CRM deal with the same email arrives, Finseo attributes it to the named AI engine, tying Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) to SaaS sign-ups.

Only as raw answers buried in exports, with no link to revenue. Since ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini rarely pass a referrer, the self-reported SurveyMonkey answer is the most reliable signal, but it needs classification. Finseo normalizes it into AI Search and the named engine and merges it with conversions by email.

Because SurveyMonkey native webhooks only carry a response ID, not the answers themselves, so a direct webhook would give Finseo nothing to classify. Use the Zapier or Make trigger "SurveyMonkey, New Response with details", which fetches the full response. The plain "New Response" trigger returns just the ID.
