    About

    In practice. What you can do with Slido.

    Slido adds live polls, Q&A and word clouds to a meeting or event, usable in video calls as well as in person. The free plan covers up to 100 participants with the essentials (polls, Q&A, quizzes), enough for a team meeting or small event.

    Beyond 100 participants, or for brand customization and advanced analytics, you need a paid plan. Quoted rates vary widely by source (from a few tens to several hundred dollars per month) because they depend on participant volume and enterprise features: better to request a precise quote based on your actual event size than rely on a generic figure.

    Practical uses
