Find out what the room is really thinking

Vevox is live polling, Q and A and quizzing for meetings, conferences and training, in the room or online. We set it up, run it live and turn what comes back into something you can act on.

Sound familiar?

Any questions? Silence.

Nobody wants to be the person who raises their hand. So the meeting ends, everyone says it was fine, and the real questions get asked in the corridor afterwards where you cannot answer them.

What Vevox does

Vevox live polling results appearing on screen during a session

Live polling gets everyone involved from the first minute. Ask how people are feeling or what they understand, put the results on the screen, and you have a conversation rather than a broadcast.

Run the same poll again later in the session and you can see the mood or the understanding shift, in the room, in front of everyone.

Anonymous Q and A takes the sting out of asking. People can put a question without putting their name to it, upvote the ones they also wanted answered, and you can moderate if a session needs keeping on track.

It works the same whether your audience is in the room, at home, or a mix of both, using the phone already in their hand.

What we do

Polling is easy. Asking the right questions is not.

01

Decide what you actually need to know

A poll is only useful if you would act differently depending on the answer. We start by working out which questions are worth asking in front of everyone.

02

Write questions that get honest answers

Wording decides the result. We write the polls so they do not lead people to the answer you were hoping for.

03

Set it up and rehearse it

The session is built, tested and run through with your presenters, so nobody is learning the tool in front of an audience.

04

Run it live so your presenters can present

We drive the polls and manage the question queue on the day, which frees your leaders to concentrate on answering rather than clicking.

05

Turn the results into something useful

The export is raw data. We write it up into what people said, what it means and what to do next, including the questions there was not time to answer.

Things people ask us

Questions we get about polling

Do people need to download anything?
No. They join from a browser on the phone they already have, using a session ID.
Is it really anonymous?
Questions and poll responses can be anonymous, which is the point. People ask what they actually want to know rather than what looks good.
What if someone asks something hostile?
Questions can be moderated, so they are reviewed before they appear. We would encourage you to answer the difficult ones anyway, since ducking them is usually more damaging.
Does it work for a hybrid audience?
Yes. In the room and at home, everyone takes part on the same terms, which is the biggest single fix for hybrid meetings.
Can we buy the licence through you?
Yes, and we can also just run sessions on your existing licence if you already have one.
The best way to see if we are a good fit

Got a room that goes quiet?

Fifteen minutes, free, no pitch deck. If we are not right for you, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
