Elevate
Audrey hi - I started compiling a list of examples of things I’ve built that are forms / experiences on the web and realized I could just make a few Elevate-themed forms to show you what I meant!
So here are three examples + a bunch of things I’ve made in the past.
One
Yesterday the thing that kept coming up was that it is too easy to book a call, and that someone who only wants information has nowhere else to go. These are three answers to that. They work, they are in your colours, and nothing is saved.
Our fill-in-the-blank question, rewritten for a manager. Two sentences and thirty seconds, and the person taking the call opens it already knowing the situation. Submit it and you see exactly what they would see.
/before-a-call/
Three situations, three different next steps. One struggling manager gets sent one thing. A group promoted at once gets the call. Someone comparing options gets the research and is asked for nothing. The person who is just looking still gets somewhere to go, and stops taking a call slot.
/which-one/
Ellie meets someone before they are a client. She asks one question at a time and her second question depends on your first answer, then she gives back one real piece of coaching before anyone mentions a calendar. Type “we just promoted five people at once” and see where it goes. Was playing around with what Ellie herself could look like and picked this random public domain photo lol.

Two
Each one qualifies people a different way.
The open question is a sentence with two blanks in it instead of a labelled text box: “By the end of the cohort I will have built ___ and I’ll feel a lot more ___ about AI.” Name and email are the only required fields, and almost everyone fills in the blanks anyway.

A twenty-second form that ends with a radio button written the way a person would say it: “just making sure - are you actually gonna take the class??” It filters by asking straight rather than by adding steps.

Someone types what is stopping them from building the thing they want to build, and gets a reply back. Every reply was written by me in advance; the model only picks which one that person gets. It collects an email and a genuinely useful sentence, and the visitor leaves with something.

Mid-cohort survey where Claude asks the questions and follows up on the answers, then a Submit button files the whole conversation. This is the live version of the Ellie demo above.

A form is only as good as what comes before it. This is the whole sales page the application is attached to.

Three
These all ask someone for something, or narrow something down for them, without looking like a form.
A public directory of therapists with filters, built for a nonprofit in western North Carolina. Someone in a hard moment narrows a list of people down to the one they can actually see. You have 21 coaches and facilitators, which is the same problem.
https://pehnwnc.netlify.app/
Built for a podcast guest and their network. One menu of ways to help, copy already written, assets already attached. Its whole job is to make it easy for an outsider to take an action.

A tappable floor plan where you drag things into zones instead of filling in fields. Built from photos of a real garage.
https://spicy-yoga-wksd.here.now/
A page about the process rather than the result. An example of telling a story instead of listing features.
https://codeforcreatives.com/how-it-got-made/
The marketing page for a tool I built, with a fake text thread running on it that plays out the problem before it names the product.

Four
Half an hour each, mostly to find out what a page feels like when it does one thing. Worth clicking if you want a sense of range rather than another example of a form.
A text box and one button labelled RELEASE. That is all of it.

A tarot-style daily reflection. You pull a card and sit with it.
https://lookhere.botharetrue.com/v/ad-daily-oracle
Each idea becomes a star and related ones draw lines between them.
https://lookhere.botharetrue.com/v/ad-idea-constellation
The feeling of a dentist’s office in 1997. It does nothing on purpose.
https://lookhere.botharetrue.com/v/ad-waiting-room
A streak tracker that throws particles. Lighting a fire instead of ticking a box.
https://lookhere.botharetrue.com/v/ad-streak-fire
An empty screen with a timer on it. That is the entire product.
