About

Good polling shouldn't take a procurement cycle.

Topline exists because most teams that need public-opinion data can't get it in time to matter. A proper poll used to mean a research vendor, a statement of work, three weeks, and five figures. So teams guessed instead.

We built the vendor into software. Describe your poll in plain language; topline drafts the questionnaire, fields it to real Americans through vetted panel suppliers, and returns results with the methodology attached.

What we hold ourselves to

Real people only

Every response comes from a genuine American respondent. We recruit through vetted panel suppliers and screen every response with quality checks. Never bots, never synthetic data.

Statistical honesty

N on every chart. Raw counts next to every modeled estimate. We label in-progress polls as in progress. If a number is uncertain, we say so.

Neutral questionnaires

We tune our drafting toward balanced wording. Leading questions produce numbers nobody should publish, including yours.

A small team of survey nerds

Topline is a small team of engineers and researchers who have run surveys the slow way, in campaigns and research firms, and thought the craft deserved better tooling.

Drafting is free. A multiple-choice question asked of 1,000 people costs one credit, and subscribers get 20 credits a month for $899.
