Slido

Slido is an audience interaction platform for facilitating real-time engagement during meetings, classes, and events. The system functions by allowing participants to join a session via a unique code on their devices to access interactive components. Core capabilities include live polls with five formats (multiple choice, word cloud, rating, open text, ranking), audience Q&A with anonymous submission and upvoting, and timed quizzes with leaderboards. An AI-driven feature offers poll suggestions and wording refinement. The tool provides integrations for PowerPoint, Google Slides, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom, and includes analytics for engagement measurement and data export. The platform is utilized by educators, corporate trainers, event organizers, and team leaders. A typical workflow for an educator involves embedding a quiz into a presentation to assess student comprehension or using a live poll to initiate class discussion. In a corporate setting, a manager can run a company all-hands meeting, using the anonymous Q&A feature to collect and address employee questions transparently. Event organizers use it during conferences to run live polls and word clouds, increasing audience participation and gathering immediate feedback on session content.
