Calculating step
The Calculating step is a short “we’re preparing your result” animation. It builds anticipation between a quiz (or similar) and the next screen — often a paywall or email capture.
What you configure
- Display style — Checklist (step list with checkmarks), Circular (percentage ring), or Bar (horizontal progress bar)
- Title and optional subtitle
- Duration — how long the loading animation runs before automatically moving forward
- Progress steps — short status lines that appear in sequence (for example "Analyzing your answers…")
- Clarification modals — optional mini-questions that pause the loader between progress lines
Display styles
| Style | Visual animation |
|---|---|
| Checklist | Vertically stacked list of milestones with animated checkmarks as each completes |
| Circular | Circular progress ring with an animated percentage counter (0% to 100%) in the center |
| Bar | Horizontal progress bar filling smoothly from left to right |
Clarification modals
Use Clarification Modals when you want one more answer during the wait — for example goal, budget, or experience level — without adding a full Quiz step.
- In the Calculating step panel, open Clarification Modals.
- Click Add modal.
- Choose Show after progress line — the modal appears right after that loading line finishes.
- Set the question, optional subtitle, answers, and Continue button label.
- Add more modals if needed; each can trigger after a different progress line.
Visitors must answer before the loader continues. Answers are not scored on this step — use a Score Result step if you need weighted results.
When to use it
Use it when a pause makes the next offer feel more personal or “computed.” Skip it if you prefer a faster, more direct path to the offer.
