Slido Alternative
Anonymity you can actually stand behind
Slido is a capable Q&A and polling tool for meetings. But its own community keeps returning to one question: under an anonymous poll, can an administrator still identify a participant? The uncomfortable part of the answer is that participant IP addresses are retained.
PollMaker.ai takes the opposite stance by design. No IP is stored. Each is hashed with a secret unique to the poll and dropped the instant a ballot lands. There is no identity to reconstruct, which is the only version of "anonymous" worth the word.
Fair counting you can check
For a vote that will be contested, a one-time Event Pass publishes a verifiable tally: each voter gets a receipt, and anyone can recompute the result in their browser and confirm nothing was added, dropped, or changed.
The trade-off
Slido is built for large event Q&A with deep integrations. PollMaker.ai is a focused, privacy-first poll. If your priority is a poll people trust and a price that fits a single event, this is the closer fit.
