# Can I add my own custom questions?

For more flexibility in your Brand Lift setups, you can create your own custom questions and add them in your surveys. The **Questions Bank** contains pre-existing Happydemics [profiling questions](/launch/survey-customisation/how-to-add-a-profiling-question.md) as well as your own custom questions. Each custom question added in a survey will be invoiced 200€.

\
⚠️ Please keep in mind that you are entirely **responsible for the questions you create,** their wording and translations. Happydemics cannot be held responsible for any issues regarding them.&#x20;

⚠️Please note that we **don’t guarantee a specific number of respondents** on each answers for these questions and that [**benchmarks**](/analysis/brand-lift-results/how-to-read-benchmark-results.md) **won’t be available.**<br>

Each custom question can be saved and reused across surveys. They will be available in a **Questions Bank > My Questions for all future Brand Lifts.**&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.happydemics.com/launch/survey-customisation/can-i-add-my-own-custom-questions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
