Digitizing your assessments helps you scale. but people still expect tailored reports that demonstrate your expertise and address their unique challenges and goals.
While other tools stop at scoring, Pointerpro goes further – automatically generating personalized report content.
Thanks to the power of widget logic rules – simple if-then conditions that tailor each report.
You’ll also hear this capability called personalized recommendations, adaptive suggestions, smart content delivery, conditional recommendations, orrule-based recommendations.
All of these terms point to the same core principle: content that changes based on user behavior or answers, so your advice reports are tailored and relevant every time.
An outcome is a pre-defined result category. Respondents get assigned one based on answers, scores, or formulas. At the end of a questionnaire the outcome is reflected by an end screen.
You use it to show a pre-defined content package downstream in the report according to the assigned outcome - perfect for clear, high-level feedback.
In a needs assessment, respondents choose between 4 options to indicate their relevant workforce category (e.g., full-time, part-time, seasonal, etc.)
In a readiness assessment, respondents’ scores define the category they fall into (e.g., Beginner, intermediate, expert, etc.)
A custom score is a numeric total or average from a defined set of questions. Respondents get assigned one based on their answers within that question block. At the end of a questionnaire the score can be shown on a results screen.
You use it to show specific content widgets downstream in the report according to the score range – ideal when feedback needs more precision than broad categories.
In a skills assessment, a respondent with a cumulative score on a set of questions below 10, gets to see a specific list of recommended actions.
A formula is a calculation that combines and weights selected answer values. Respondents get assigned one based on multiple questions or sections. At the end of a questionnaire the formula result can be displayed on an end screen as a variable KPI.
And you can use it to show specific content widgets downstream in the report according to the calculated value - perfect for composite scores or threshold-based recommendations.
In a financial wellness survey, a formula combines income, savings rate, and debt-to-income ratio to create a financial stability index. Depending on the index, the report shows either savings tips or investment strategies.
NOBODY has a product that is exactly like this. I looked for days, and from what I can tell, this checks the box. In fact, it's what I would have created if I had been designing a program for myself.

No coding is required. Pointerpro’s Report Builder lets you apply widget logic rules with a simple if-then setup. Many rules, like showing content based on a single answer, can be created in just a few clicks.
For more advanced personalization - for example, using custom scores or formulas as conditions - you’ll need to set up those elements first. The good news is that the platform walks you through the process step by step, so even complex logic remains accessible without technical expertise.
Generating dynamic recommendations in PDF reports are available across the ReportR and DistributR plans. Advanced options like formulas and specific widget types may depend on your subscription level. Our team will guide you toward the plan that best matches your reporting needs.
Think of widget logic rules as the “personalization switches” inside your report. They decide which content appears for each respondent. For example:
- Simple answer logic: If an HR assessment asks, “Do you manage a team?” and the answer is “Yes,” the report adds a section with team-focused insights, while solo contributors don’t see that part.
- Outcome-based rule: If a sales assessment assigns someone the outcome “Challenger,” their report shows tailored coaching tips for that sales style. Here’s an example of a Pointerpro user who developed training needs reports in function of negotiation styles.
- Custom score-based rule: In a leadership survey, if a manager scores below 50% on “communication,” the report includes extra resources on active listening and feedback skills.
- Formula-based rule: In a wellbeing assessment, if a weighted formula combining sleep, exercise, and stress responses falls below a set threshold, the report automatically displays recommendations for work-life balance.
These rules let you go beyond generic scoring, so each respondent feels like the report was written just for them.
Yes. You can use all three:
- Outcomes to categorize respondents into clear result types.
- Custom scores to total or average points from selected questions.
- Formulas to combine and weight answers for more complex results.
Each of these can drive logic rules to show the right widgets in a report.
In most cases, yes. For example, you might use a formula to calculate a threshold and then apply a widget rule that displays content only if the threshold is met.
Some combinations (such as certain average-based formulas with other rules) have limitations, but the platform and the Pointerpro customer success team guides you through what’s possible so you never get stuck.
Yes, as soon you have finalized your report template with the widget logic rules. Once a respondent completes your assessment, Pointerpro processes the data, applies your logic, and creates the tailored PDF report on the spot. Respondents can download it immediately, or you can share it directly.
Pointerpro is a software platform to create your own online assessments, automatically generate personalized reports and manage the distribution of assessments.
