Self-hosted alternatives to Mentimeter
Mentimeter is a hosted interactive presentation tool where the audience answers polls, quizzes, word clouds and questions from their phones. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.
Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Mentimeter describes on its own site.

- Partly Live polls. Up to eight polls per event, each multiple choice with two to six options.
- No Quizzes with leaderboards. Not available.
- No Live word clouds. Not available.
- Yes Audience Q&A. Questions with support from other participants, a moderation link, audience reports, slow mode and a delay before questions reach the screen.
