Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Pigeonhole Live you would be making live video to hundreds of people at once. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 65 of the 89 other presentation tools we grade. It costs $156 a year.
What you could make
- Surveys: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Live video to hundreds of people at once.
- A slide editor.
- Several people working in it at the same moment.
- It plugs into other products, Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Slides and Zoom among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Pigeonhole Live’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
