Livepoll
Livepoll is a free live polling and audience engagement platform built for presenters who are tired of running into paywalls mid-session. Unlike Mentimeter, Slido, Kahoot, and AhaSlides, Livepoll keeps every core feature genuinely free — no participant caps that cut you off in front of a live audience and no upgrade prompts in the middle of your keynote. Currently in soft launch, the platform has already served over 69,000 real participants, run 13 sessions with 1,000+ live participants, and handled a peak of 3,764 simultaneous joins in a single room, proving it can scale to conference-sized audiences without choking. Presenters can spin up polls, quizzes, word clouds, and Q&A in seconds, share a join code or link, and watch responses stream in live. With the official launch planned for August, Livepoll is a strong fit for teachers, conference speakers, trainers, and team leads who want reliable, large-scale audience engagement without per-session pricing surprises.
