Best for live polls inside PowerPoint and Slides
Poll Everywhere runs live polls and Q&A from inside PowerPoint, Google Slides or Canva. The free Intro plan caps the audience at 40. Present is $10 a month for one seat and annual only, and the logo only comes off at the Teams tier.
Who Poll Everywhere is for
- Fits if you ask a room of up to 40 questions from inside your slides
- Works for presenters who need 700 people on one poll, on Present
Who Poll Everywhere is not for
- Tight if you stay free: 40 people in the audience and 10 AI prompts a month
- Pricey if you want to drop the Poll Everywhere logo, as that starts at Teams, $84 a month for 2 seats
- Skip it if you want monthly billing at the low end, as Present is annual only
- Watch out: these are business prices, and the Education tab has its own list that we did not read

Keep Poll Everywhere, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Poll Everywhere you could make: surveys and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
What you could make
- Surveys and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A slide editor.
- Several people working in it at the same moment.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Poll Everywhere’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.
What is Poll Everywhere?
Poll Everywhere lets a presenter ask polls and questions that an audience answers from phones or laptops, with results shown live. The site says polls can be embedded in PowerPoint, Google Slides, Canva and PDFs. Plans are sorted by audience size, AI prompts, seats and branding, with separate education plans.
Worth knowing
- The free Intro plan caps the audience at 40.
- Additional seats cost extra: $120, $294 and $499 a year on Present, Engage and Teams.
- These are the Business & non-profit prices; the page has a separate Education tab whose prices were not read.
- Present is sold annually only, and the Teams plan is the first to remove Poll Everywhere branding.
Key features
- Every question type
- All plans list every question and poll type, folders for organizing polls, and worldwide response coverage.
- Slide integrations
- The homepage says live polls embed into PowerPoint, Google Slides, Canva and PDFs. PowerPoint integration is listed on every plan.
- AI prompts
- Monthly AI prompts: 10 on Intro, 100 on Present, unlimited from Engage.
- Reporting and attendance
- Reporting starts at Present; attendance management and importing participant groups start at Engage.
- Branding
- Removing the Poll Everywhere logo, custom themes and custom usernames start at Teams.
- Two experiences
- The site offers both the classic Poll Everywhere and a refreshed Poll Everywhere 2.0, each with its own join address.
