Who Is This For?

Mentimeter is for educators, trainers, conference speakers, team leads, and anyone who presents to groups and wants real-time audience engagement. It's especially popular in classrooms, corporate training, town halls, and workshops where interaction improves retention and participation.

About Mentimeter

Mentimeter turns one-way presentations into interactive conversations. Instead of talking at your audience while they check their phones, you embed live polls, quizzes, word clouds, Q&A sessions, and reaction slides directly into your presentation — and your audience responds in real time from their phones.

The setup is simple: create a presentation in Mentimeter, share a code with your audience, and responses appear live on screen as people participate. No app download required — attendees join via a web browser on any device. Seeing real-time results creates energy in the room that traditional slides simply can't.

Mentimeter now includes AI-powered slide generation — describe your presentation topic and it creates a starting deck with interactive elements already built in. The AI also suggests appropriate question types based on your content: multiple choice for testing knowledge, word clouds for brainstorming, scales for sentiment checking.

For educators, the quiz and competition features add gamification to learning. For corporate trainers, anonymous polls encourage honest feedback. For conference speakers, live Q&A eliminates the awkward 'any questions?' silence. The free plan includes unlimited presentations with up to 50 participants per presentation — enough for most classroom and meeting use cases.
