Award Force provides a wide range of field types to help you collect exactly the information you need from entrants. Many field types include additional configuration options, such as file size limits or minimum and maximum word counts.
AI (beta)
The AI field type lets you ask natural-language questions about entries to automatically generate summaries, feedback, and insights.
