Everything you need to run a live session

One deck for the whole session — quiz rounds, polls, word clouds and Q&A — run from a console only you can see.

Nine ways to ask

Nine slide types

Mix them freely in one deck: the quiz keeps its scores while polls, word clouds and Q&A run between rounds.

  • Multiple choice

    Pick the right answer. Faster correct answers score more.

  • True or false

    Quick-fire statements to warm up the room or check a fact.

  • Type answer

    Players type the answer themselves — no options to guess from.

  • Poll

    Ask the room and watch the bars move as the votes come in.

  • Word cloud

    Short answers from everyone. The most popular words grow biggest.

  • Scale

    Rate on any range you choose, and see the average live.

  • Open text

    Longer answers, for ideas, feedback and reflections.

  • Q&A

    The audience asks and votes; you decide what goes on screen.

  • Content

    A title or talking point between questions.

Presenting

You run the session from the presenter console while the room watches the stage. You always see what comes next; they only see what you show them.

  • A presenter console with live tallies, the Q&A queue and the next slide
  • A full-screen stage for the projector, driven by the keyboard
  • Your phone as a remote, so you can walk the room
  • Rehearsal with a pretend audience, to see every step first
  • Time limits that close early once everyone has answered

Quizzes

A correct answer earns full points if it's instant and half at the buzzer. Streaks add a bonus, and any question can be worth double.

  • Speed-based scoring, timed by the server
  • Standard, double or no points per question
  • A leaderboard after each scored question, with the biggest climber
  • A hall of fame with a podium for the top three
  • Each player's own score and rank on their phone

Polls, word clouds and feedback

Ask what the room thinks and show it back to them as it happens. Nothing to score, nothing to get wrong — so everyone joins in.

  • Polls with results that build live
  • Word clouds, with up to ten words per person
  • Scales on any range, with the average on screen
  • Open answers shown as cards on the stage

Q&A

People ask from their phones at any point in the session. You approve what goes on screen and the room votes up what it most wants answered.

  • Approve, hide or mark questions answered
  • Upvotes bring the top question forward
  • Questions can be asked anonymously

  • Your logo on the stage and on every phone
  • A lobby with your title, welcome message and a code or QR layout
