What Mentimeter does

Mentimeter is a Stockholm-headquartered SaaS company that has built a browser-based interactive presentation and audience-engagement platform, serving presenters in enterprises, higher education, internal communications, training, and live events. The product turns one-way presentations into two-way experiences by letting presenters add polls, word clouds, quizzes, Q&A, and surveys that audiences join from any device via a six-digit code — no install or account required. The platform ships a suite of audience-engagement modules (Live Polling, Word Cloud, Quiz, Live Q&A, Surveys, Mentimote presenter remote) on top of which a 2024-onwards AI layer has been added, including the Menti AI Creator (generative presentation/quiz/survey builder from a prompt or document), AI Grouping (real-time clustering of open-ended responses), and Key Insights (live takeaway surfacing). Distribution is anchored by native apps in Zoom Marketplace, Microsoft Teams, PowerPoint (add-in), Hopin, and three major LMS platforms (Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard), making the product reachable inside the productivity and conferencing tools presenters already use.

The business model is multi-tier: a free tier (capped at 50 participants/month) functions as the top-of-funnel acquisition vehicle; Basic ($14 USD/presenter/month, billed yearly) and Pro ($28 USD/presenter/month, billed yearly) capture individual and team self-serve revenue via credit-card, debit-card, or PayPal billing; a custom-priced Enterprise tier (sold via field sales with dedicated Customer Success, SSO, SCIM, and floating-license administration) addresses large organizations; a separate Education pricing track serves teachers and students; and a one-off Mentimeter for Conferences plan serves single-event use cases. Revenue is therefore a mix of recurring subscription (SMB/Pro/Enterprise), one-time conference licenses, and freemium-driven conversion. Named enterprise customers include Deloitte Germany, Siemens Healthineers, NHS Mid and South Essex Foundation Trust, University of Technology Sydney, Bosch, and Bayer; the company claims 500+ million users worldwide, a G2 Fall 2025 'Best Usability' and 'Best Relationship' badge set with a 4.76/5 rating across 671 reviews, and approximately 251-500 employees.

Mentimeter is organized as a Swedish public limited company (Mentimeter AB (publ), reg. no. 556892-5506) — a corporate form designed for public listing — but remains privately held. Total disclosed funding is approximately $111.6M across rounds from 2014 through a 2024 growth round (led by Bure Equity AB and GP Bullhound), with earlier support from Creades, Nordstjernan Growth, Alfvén & Didrikson, and 500 Global. As of 2026, the company is actively pursuing a Stockholm stock-market listing despite a recent valuation write-down, has localized into German, and has expanded its AI product surface. It also holds ISO-compliant ISMS certification and operates a GDPR-aligned data residency posture that has supported adoption in regulated European enterprises.

Direct peers

• Vevox: Audience interaction platform for meetings, classes and events with live polling, Q&A, word clouds and MS Teams integration; targets the same education and enterprise segments as Mentimeter.
• AhaSlides: Interactive presentation tool offering live polls, quizzes, word clouds, Q&A and spinner wheels; positions as a lower-priced alternative to Mentimeter across business and education use cases.
• Kahoot!: Publicly listed engagement and assessment platform with strong education and corporate-training franchises; competes head-on with Mentimeter's quiz, polling and AI-generation features and has materially larger brand awareness in schools.
• Pigeonhole Live: Live Q&A, polling and word-cloud platform purpose-built for conferences and hybrid events; overlaps with Mentimeter's Conference plan and large-audience use cases.
• Poll Everywhere: Long-standing audience-response system used in higher education and enterprise meetings; offers live polls, Q&A and word clouds across web, PowerPoint, Keynote and Google Slides — overlapping directly with Mentimeter's core modules.
• Slido (Cisco/Webex): Closest direct competitor in live polling, Q&A and quizzes inside meetings and events; now owned by Cisco/Webex and bundled into Webex, which gives it native distribution advantages analogous to Mentimeter's Zoom/Teams presence.

Emerging players

• Typeform: Conversational form and survey builder with growing quiz and AI features; competes with Mentimeter's Survey and AI Survey Maker modules in asynchronous feedback and form-based data collection.
• Mural: Collaborative whiteboard platform used in workshops and hybrid meetings; overlaps with Mentimeter's workshop and brainstorming use cases and shares enterprise customers in facilitation and design.

Broad incumbents

• Prezi: Established presentation platform expanding into interactive and AI-driven presentations; competes with Mentimeter on the broader 'interactive presentation' category rather than live audience response specifically.
• Mentimeter's marketplace incumbents: Microsoft Teams Polls & Zoom Polls: First-party polling and Q&A features in Microsoft Teams and Zoom are the most important strategic threat: they are bundled free with the meeting platforms where Mentimeter's distribution is strongest, and are rapidly being augmented with AI summarization.
