We present a free and open-source tool for creating web-based surveys that include text annotation tasks. Existing tools offer either text annotation or survey functionality but not both. Combining the two input types is particularly relevant for investigating a reader's perception of a text which also depends on the reader's background, such as age, gender, and education. Our tool caters primarily to the needs of researchers in the Library and Information Sciences, the Social Sciences, and the Humanities who apply Content Analysis to investigate, e.g., media bias, political communication, or fake news.
