The quiet room

You ask “Any questions?” and nobody speaks.

It's not that they have nothing to say. It's that nobody wants to be the first one to say it. Give them a code and their own phone, and the same room will tell you everything.

Three steps. That's the whole thing.

  1. 1

    Type your question

    Write a question and two answers. No account needed.

Why people switch

The same room. A fraction of the invoice.

The big names charge for every presenter, once a year, up front. We charge one price for the whole team - and you can leave next month.

Entry paid plan, cost per year

  • Kahoot!$228/presenter
  • Mentimeter$168/presenter
  • Slido$150/presenter
  • Poll Everywhere$120/presenter
  • AhaSlides$95/presenter
  • PollsLive$50/10 seats

Mentimeter bills every presenter separately, so a team of 10 runs about $1,680 a year there. The same 10 people on PollsLive Pro pay $50 - one invoice, and nobody has to argue about who gets a licence.

  • One price for everyone

    One price covers 10 people. Add a colleague without adding to the bill.

  • Monthly, cancel any time

    Slido, Mentimeter, Vevox and Wooclap are annual-only. Pay for the month you actually present.

  • Event Pass from $29

    Running one conference? Pay once and be done - there's no subscription to remember to cancel. Slido charges $80-700 for the same thing.

In their words

Loved by the people who run the room

We used PollsLive in a leadership workshop, and it honestly fixed the biggest problem I had: people drifting off after the first ten minutes. The live polls gave me a quick way to reset attention and see what topics needed more explanation. It felt very natural to use.
Christopher HenchozCorporate Trainer
I liked using it for a product demo because I got instant reactions. That was more useful than waiting for follow-up emails later.
Lucas MartinsProduct Manager
We used it in an all-hands meeting and got more honest responses than usual. That was the main win for me.
Priya SharmaHR Specialist
Solid tool for webinars. Kept the room active and gave us a better sense of what prospects cared about.

The short answers

Is it really free?

Yes. You can make a poll without an account. The free plan covers 3 published polls, 500 answers each, and up to 50 people answering live at the same time. No card needed.

Do people need an app or an account to answer?

No. They scan a QR code, follow a link, or type a 6-digit code. It runs in the browser on any phone.

How is this different from Slido or Mentimeter?

Same live polls, quizzes and Q&A - different bill. They charge per presenter and bill for a year up front. PollsLive Pro is one flat $50/yr for 10 people, billed monthly if you prefer, and there is a one-time Event Pass if you only need one conference.

Can I use it in a classroom?

Yes. There are no student accounts and nothing to install. Students join with a code or a QR on any phone or laptop.

Do I need to install anything?

No. There is no add-in for PowerPoint, no plugin for Zoom, and no app for your audience. You build the poll in a browser and put a six-digit code or a QR on your slide - so there is usually nothing for IT to approve.

Ready to hear from your room?

Your first poll takes about a minute. No card, and you don't even need an account to start.
