Image Ad Testing

Image Ad Testing from SurveyMonkey LaunchPad uses monadic testing methodology to evaluate up to 10 image ads (PNG or JPG). Each respondent sees one image ad at a time, helping reduce comparison bias and capture clearer feedback. The Image Ad Testing solution then automatically analyzes results with scorecards, statistical significance testing, benchmarks, Key Driver Analysis, and AI-powered insights—so you can quickly see which ad has the strongest market potential and why.

You only pay for the research you run—no subscription, no long-term commitment. 

Your cost comes down to two things:

Not at all. Our Image Ad Testing solution is designed for marketing managers, brand managers, product marketing managers, campaign managers, growth marketers, creative agency strategists, and creative directors who need reliable research without building a study from scratch. The Image Ad Testing solution guides the setup, applies the methodology, and automatically analyzes your results.

If you choose to send your survey to our integrated panel, you can often go from launch to a full analysis in hours. It really depends on your audience sample, but even for niche global audiences, most studies wrap up within 24–48 hours.

While the monadic methodology focuses on one name idea per respondent to ensure unbiased results, you can test up to 10 ad concepts in PNG or JPG format.

Our powerful data quality controls ensure reliable respondent data at scale—so you know your results are accurate.

Comparative testing forces respondents to review all concepts side by side and choose their favorite. The drawback is respondents are focused on the comparison, not the concept. Results come back as a series of charts that show relative preference that can’t be compared to industry benchmarks.

Monadic testing has respondents evaluate one concept at a time, mimicking how a consumer would encounter a product on the shelf or in an ad. This eliminates comparison bias. Results are compiled into scorecards alongside industry benchmarks to highlight the winners and predict in-market performance.

Image Ad Testing uses a monadic testing methodology where each respondent only evaluates a single concept. Idea Screening uses a sequential monadic testing methodology where each respondent evaluates multiple concepts in sequence.
