Subject: Invitation to Participate in a Study on AI-Generated Academic Websites

Who can participate?

  • Generate a website using Lovable by following a few simple instructions (approx. 30 minutes)
  • Complete a final survey (approx. 10 minutes)
When can you participate?
  • Participation is open from December 8, 2025 to January 5, 2026
  • Earlier participation is very much appreciated. It helps a fellow colleague stay on schedule 😉
As a thank you for your participation:
  • You will receive a 10 CHF voucher
