Why Mazetec?

Advanced skip logic and branching for surveys
Collect payments directly through surveys
Professional data exports (CSV, Excel, SPSS)
Use live with groups or for individual research
Integrate with Articulate Rise, Storyline, Thinkific, and more

Challenge students to use what they know to navigate scenarios you design.

Our greatest life-lessons come from our decisions.

1. Build your survey or scenario

From simple feedback forms to complex research studies with conditional logic.

Build professional surveys with skip logic, or create engaging interactive scenarios for training and assessment.

Skip logic - Route respondents based on answers.
Branch choices - Create conditional decision paths.
Collect payments - Monetize surveys and assessments.
Collaborate - Invite and build with colleagues.
Data exports - Professional CSV, Excel, and SPSS formats.

Connect+ choices to pitfalls, hints, and more.

Decision Branch

Connect branching choices to different decision paths that move the scenario forward. Pipe responses forward. Crowd source your choices with Open Choice. Match free text with the Conditional Logic branch.

Hints

Connect a hint for reflection, pause the timer, and return them to the previous decision point to make a better choice during play.

Forms and Surveys

Add pre and post surveys or ask open-ended questions, “Why did you choose that?”

Warnings

Poor choices have consequences! Link poor choices to a warning and send students back to make a better choice. Subtract time or points to show impact.

Fail

Some choices are unacceptable. Reaching a Fail branch ends the simulation, but presents the option to restart or redirect. Build in none or many Fail outcomes or reuse the same one.

Finish

A successful Finish ends the scenario and allows the student to continue on in your course or redirect to another site.

Conditional Logic

If this, jump to that! Build dynamic logical conditions using variables (text matching, points, time, and more) with logical operators to route students to a new branch when the conditions are met.

2. Share & integrate

Consistently the best part of every course!

Interactive Node Types & Platform Features

Mazetec scenarios use specialized node types that you connect together to create branching decision paths. Enhance your scenarios with powerful platform features like timers, scoring, video, and certificates.

7 Core Node Types

Connect these node types together to build interactive scenarios

Decision Branch (Scene Node)

The foundation of your scenarios. Present content with multiple choice decision points that branch the story. Add 2-10 choices with custom labels and consequences. Pipe responses forward or use Open Choice for crowd-sourced input.

Example: "What do you do next?" with 4 options

Hint Nodes

Provide guidance without giving away the answer. Connect a hint for reflection, pause the timer, and return participants to the previous decision point to make a better choice.

Example: "Consider the safety protocols before deciding"

Form & Survey Nodes

Embed complete surveys at any point in your scenario. Add pre and post assessments or ask open-ended questions like "Why did you choose that?" Collect data, score responses, and branch based on answers.

Example: Pre-assessment before training module

Warning Nodes

Poor choices have consequences! Link poor choices to a warning and send participants back to make a better decision. Subtract time or points to show the impact of their choice.

Example: "That choice could be harmful. Try again." -5 points

Fail Nodes

Some choices are unacceptable. Reaching a Fail node ends the simulation but presents the option to restart or redirect. Build in multiple Fail outcomes or reuse the same one across scenarios.

Example: Critical error - scenario ends, restart offered

Finish Nodes

A successful Finish node ends the scenario and allows participants to continue in your course or redirects to another site. Display final score, time, and completion status.

Example: "Training complete! Final score: 85%"

Conditional Logic Nodes

If this, jump to that! Build dynamic logical conditions using variables (text matching, points, time, and more) with logical operators to route participants to new branches when conditions are met.

Example: IF score > 80, skip to advanced module

Powerful Platform Features

Add these capabilities to your nodes and scenarios

Timers

Add countdown timers to any node or the entire scenario. Create urgency with time bonuses or penalties. Perfect for crisis training.

Scoring System

Award or deduct points based on choices. Track cumulative score throughout the scenario. Display leaderboards.

Video & Media

Embed YouTube, Vimeo, or uploaded videos. Add images, audio files, and rich media content within any node.

Certificates

Auto-generate branded PDF certificates upon completion. Custom templates with score, name, and date merge fields.

Randomization

Randomly route participants down different paths. Great for A/B testing, variation, or simulating unpredictable outcomes.

Rich Text Content

Format text with bold, italics, lists, and colors. Add images, videos, and embedded content within nodes.

Payment Collection

Collect payments via PayPal before allowing access to content. Monetize training or premium scenarios.

Immediate Feedback

Provide instant feedback on choices within any node. Explain why an answer was correct or incorrect.

Example: Complete Training Scenario

Start: Welcome video + instructions

↓

Form Node: Pre-assessment survey (10 questions)

↓

Conditional: IF score < 70%, show remedial content

Score ≥ 70%

Skip to Module 2

Score < 70%

Remedial Module

↓

Video Node: Training video (5 min)

↓

Decision: Scenario-based question with 4 choices

↓

Feedback: Explain why choice was correct/incorrect

↓

Form Node: Post-assessment survey (same 10 questions)

↓

Certificate: Generate completion certificate with score

Why Node Variety Matters

Higher Engagement

Mix of media types (text, video, interactive) keeps participants engaged. Static content = 40% drop-off. Interactive scenarios = 85% completion.

Better Learning Outcomes

Active learning through decision-making improves retention 3x vs. passive reading. Immediate feedback reinforces correct behaviors.

Maximum Flexibility

Build exactly what you need: simple quiz, complex training sim, research protocol, or storytelling experience. One platform, unlimited possibilities.

Build Interactive Experiences Beyond Simple Surveys

7 core node types combined with powerful platform features give you everything you need to create engaging, interactive training scenarios and decision-based simulations.

Advanced Conditional Logic

Build sophisticated branching scenarios with multi-condition rules, variable-based routing, and dynamic paths. Create personalized experiences that adapt in real-time based on responses, scores, metadata, and external data.

Visual Logic Builder

Start: Welcome

Q1: Experience Level?

3 options

IF answer = "Beginner"

Tutorial Content

IF answer = "Intermediate"
AND score > 50

Advanced Track

IF answer = "Expert"
OR previous_score > 85

Challenge Mode

Unlimited Logic Possibilities

Multi-condition rules — Combine AND, OR, NOT operators

Variable-based routing — Use any response, score, or metadata

Score thresholds — Branch based on cumulative scores

Time-based logic — Different paths based on completion time

External data — Integrate CRM, LMS, or database lookups

Nested conditions — Unlimited depth for complex scenarios

Condition Types

Answer-Based

Branch based on what the user selected or entered in any previous question.

IF Q2 = "Yes"

IF Q5 contains "urgent"

IF Q1 ≠ "N/A"

Score-Based

Route users based on their cumulative score, individual question scores, or category averages.

IF total_score > 80

IF Q3_score ≤ 50

IF avg_score < 60

Variable-Based

Use custom variables, metadata fields, or computed values in your conditions.

IF department = "Sales"

IF age > 25

IF subscription = "Premium"

Time-Based

Create conditions based on how long users take to complete sections or the entire scenario.

IF duration > 10min

IF Q1_time < 30s

IF completed_at after 5pm

Count-Based

Branch based on how many selections, attempts, or items the user has completed.

IF selections_count > 3

IF attempts ≥ 2

IF completed_items < 5

External Data

Integrate with external systems to make routing decisions based on CRM, LMS, or API data.

IF CRM.status = "VIP"

IF LMS.completed = true

IF API.role = "Manager"

Complex Multi-Condition Example

Condition Rule:

IF (experience = "Expert"
OR previous_score > 85)
AND department IN ["Engineering", "QA"]
AND tenure >= 2
AND NOT (completed_advanced = true)

↓

THEN: Route to Advanced Certification Track

What This Does:

Targets users who are either self-identified experts OR scored 85+ on previous assessment
Only includes Engineering or QA departments
Requires at least 2 years tenure
Excludes anyone who already completed advanced certification

Build Complex Rules Visually

No coding required. Our visual logic builder lets you create sophisticated multi-condition rules with drag-and-drop simplicity.

Parentheses grouping — Control operator precedence

Comparison operators — =, ≠, >, <, ≥, ≤, IN, CONTAINS

Logical operators — AND, OR, NOT for combining conditions

Test mode — Preview logic paths before publishing

Error validation — Catches logic errors and circular references

Real-World Logic Examples

Healthcare: Patient Triage

Step 1: Symptom Assessment

IF severity = "High" OR temp > 103
→ Emergency Protocol

Step 2: Risk Factor Check

IF age > 65 AND (has_diabetes OR has_heart_disease)
→ High-Risk Pathway

Step 3: Referral Logic

IF symptoms_count > 3 AND duration > "1 week"
→ Specialist Referral

Outcome: Each patient receives appropriate care pathway based on their specific risk profile and symptoms.

Education: Adaptive Learning

Step 1: Placement Test

IF score < 50 → Remedial Track
IF score 50-79 → Standard Track
IF score ≥ 80 → Accelerated Track

Step 2: Progress Monitoring

IF avg_quiz_score < 60 AND attempts ≥ 2
→ Additional Support Materials

Step 3: Advancement

IF module_score > 85 AND time_spent < avg_time
→ Skip next module, advance to next level

Outcome: Students receive personalized learning paths that adapt to their performance in real-time.

Corporate: Sales Qualification

Step 1: Company Size Filter

IF company_size < 50
→ Small Business Track
ELSE → Enterprise Track

Step 2: Budget Qualification

IF budget > $50K AND decision_timeline < "3 months"
→ High Priority Lead

Step 3: Feature Interest

IF selected_features CONTAINS "API" AND has_dev_team = true
→ Technical Sales Representative

Outcome: Leads automatically routed to appropriate sales team with qualified information.

Compliance: Safety Training

Step 1: Role-Based Content

IF role = "Forklift Operator"
→ Equipment Safety Module
IF role = "Manager"
→ OSHA Reporting Module

Step 2: Incident History

IF previous_incidents > 0 OR safety_score < 70
→ Remedial Safety Training

Step 3: Certification

IF final_score ≥ 80 AND video_watched = 100%
→ Issue Certificate + Update LMS

Outcome: Workers receive role-appropriate training with automatic certification and LMS updates.
