How It Works

CherryFill works by embedding your Tally form in a secure exam environment with a countdown timer:

  • Respondents access your exam through a unique CherryFill URL
  • They enter any required information (name, email, ID) before starting
  • The countdown timer starts when they begin the exam
  • Your Tally form appears below the timer for them to complete
  • When they submit, CherryFill records the duration and links it to their Tally response
