Survey maker for live, interactive sessions

Create a survey by adding your questions, choosing how participants respond, and sharing a join code or link. With Mentimeter, you can run surveys live during meetings, classes, and events, or collect responses asynchronously through a shared link.

Yes. Mentimeter includes surveys on its free plan, so you can create and run interactive surveys for up to 50 participants without extra software. Paid plans unlock additional features and higher usage limits for larger or more advanced sessions.

Online surveys can include different question types depending on the feedback you want to collect. With Mentimeter, you can combine question types such as multiple choice, scales and ratings, open ended questions, word clouds, ranking polls, and Q&A to gather both quantitative and qualitative feedback.

No. Participants join your survey directly from their personal device using a six-digit code. No app to download, no account to create, no extra software to install. The presenter creating the survey just needs a Mentimeter account; everyone else only needs a browser.

Yes. Mentimeter surveys can be shared with a link so participants can respond in their own time, or run live during a session with results appearing in real time. This makes it easy to collect feedback before, during, or after meetings, classes, and events.

Ssurvey data is automatically stored in your Mentimeter account for you to access at any point in the future. Survey results can also be exported into a PDF or Excel document for external sharing. You can read more on how this works in our help guide.

SurveyMonkey, Qualtrics, and Google Forms are designed for asynchronous surveys, where hosts share a link and collect responses over time. Mentimeter is built for live surveys, where participants respond from their devices and results appear in real time. You can also share Mentimeter surveys as a link when asynchronous feedback is needed.

A good survey tool makes it easy to collect responses, encourages participation, and turns results into useful insights. Look for features like simple joining, anonymous responses, live or asynchronous participation, flexible question types, and clear reporting after the survey ends.
