### **What Are SmartForms?**

**SmartForms** are **AI-powered forms** that allow users to enter structured information and receive **instant AI-generated outputs**. Unlike traditional forms that only collect data, SmartForms **process responses through AI-driven instructions** to generate meaningful results—making them ideal for **lead generation, assessments, and interactive content tools**.

#### **How SmartForms Work**

1️⃣ **User Input:** The user answers structured questions in a form.\
2️⃣ **AI Processing:** The SmartForm processes the responses using pre-set AI logic (prompt chaining).\
3️⃣ **AI-Generated Output:** The SmartForm delivers a personalized response, analysis, or generated content based on user inputs.

#### **Examples of SmartForms in Action**

💡 **Fitness Plan Builder** – Users enter fitness goals, and the SmartForm generates a **personalized workout plan**.\
💡 **Leadership Diagnostic Tool** – Users complete a leadership assessment, and the SmartForm provides a **strengths/weaknesses analysis**.\
💡 **SEO Blog Topic Generator** – Users input their niche, and the SmartForm suggests **optimized blog topics** based on AI-driven insights.

### **SmartForm Features & Customizations**

#### **Form Style**

This setting determines how the user interacts with the SmartForm:

* **Single-Page:** Users fill out all questions on one screen (best for shorter forms).
* **Multi-Page:** Users answer one question at a time (recommended for longer forms or small iframe embeds to prevent user fatigue).

#### **Email Form Submission (Deprecated as of 2/18/25)**

* Automatically **sends the form responses** (including AI-generated content) to a dedicated email address of your choice.

#### **Form Redirect**

* **Redirects users to a URL** after submission instead of showing AI-generated results. Ideal for lead capture workflows.

#### **Display Results Toggle**

* **On:** Users see AI-generated results immediately after submission.
* **Off:** Displays a simple "Thank you" message instead, making it useful for **data collection tools** where results aren't needed upfront.
* **Note:** Display Results is disabled if Form Redirect is ON.
