# LivePolls > The fastest, most beautiful way to create a live poll that works everywhere. Vote in real time, embed on any site, share as a link, see results aggregate across every channel. LivePolls is a real-time polling tool. Anyone can create a poll in seconds, share it as a link, embed it on a website, or drop it in a newsletter, and watch the results update live without a page refresh. It's built for casual creators who need a quick vote, and for bloggers, newsletter operators, and publishers who want professional polls with embedding, lead capture, and analytics. The product is operated by Datasamy, Inc, a US company. Free polls have no limits. Paid features include embeddable widgets with custom branding, email lead capture, a REST API, webhooks, and audience analytics. ## What LivePolls is and isn't - **What it is:** A real-time poll maker. Beautiful by default. Works on a shared link, an embed, or both at once with results aggregating to a single source of truth. - **What it isn't:** A presentation tool (no slides, no word clouds), a meeting app (no Zoom integrations), or a market research platform (no panels or sampling). - **Who it's for (free):** Anyone with a question. Community moderators, social posters, casual users. - **Who it's for (paid):** Content creators, newsletter operators, bloggers, publishers, and developers who need embedding, lead capture, analytics, or programmatic poll creation. ## Compare LivePolls to alternatives - [LivePolls vs StrawPoll](https://livepolls.com/alternatives/strawpoll): How both stack up on real-time results, lead capture, and customization. - [LivePolls vs Mentimeter](https://livepolls.com/alternatives/mentimeter): Polling-focused tool vs full presentation platform. - [LivePolls vs Slido](https://livepolls.com/alternatives/slido): Embeddable polls vs meeting-room Q&A. - [LivePolls vs Kahoot!](https://livepolls.com/alternatives/kahoot): Audience polls vs game-based quizzes. - [LivePolls vs Poll Everywhere](https://livepolls.com/alternatives/poll-everywhere): Polling for the open web vs polling for live lectures. - [All alternatives](https://livepolls.com/alternatives): Index of every comparison. ## Browse and vote on poll collections - [Would You Rather questions](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions): 200+ hypotheticals, every one is a live poll. - [Would You Rather for adults](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-adults): Mature dilemmas worth arguing about. - [Would You Rather for couples](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-couples): Relationship-themed dilemmas. - [Would You Rather for kids](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-kids): Kid-friendly hypotheticals. - [Would You Rather for work](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-work): Office-safe icebreakers. - [Would You Rather spicy](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-spicy): For party games and date nights. - [Would You Rather funny](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-funny): The absurd and the impossible. - [Would You Rather Christmas](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-christmas): Holiday-themed dilemmas. - [Would You Rather Halloween](https://livepolls.com/blog/would-you-rather-questions-halloween): Spooky-season dilemmas. - [This or That questions](https://livepolls.com/blog/this-or-that-questions): Simpler than Would You Rather, no hypotheticals. - [This or That for couples](https://livepolls.com/blog/this-or-that-questions-couples): For partners and date nights. - [This or That funny](https://livepolls.com/blog/this-or-that-questions-funny): The lighter side. - [This or That for kids](https://livepolls.com/blog/this-or-that-questions-kids): Kid-safe picks. ## For builders and publishers - [Create a poll](https://livepolls.com/create): Free, no signup required for casual polls. - [Poll maker](https://livepolls.com/poll-maker): Landing page for the core poll-creation flow. - [Features](https://livepolls.com/features): Real-time updates, embedding, lead capture, analytics, branding. - [Embed](https://livepolls.com/embed): How to drop a live poll into any site, newsletter, or blog. - [WordPress](https://livepolls.com/embed/wordpress): Direct WordPress embed integration. - [Developers](https://livepolls.com/developers): REST API, webhooks, programmatic poll creation. - [OpenAPI contract](https://livepolls.com/openapi.json): Machine-readable REST API schema for agents and SDKs. - [MCP endpoint](https://livepolls.com/mcp): OAuth-capable MCP server for poll creation, results, embed code, and webhook management. - [ChatGPT app](https://livepolls.com/developers#chatgpt-app): OAuth-linked app for creating polls and reading results from ChatGPT. - [AI agent guide](https://livepolls.com/developers#openapi-mcp): Agent scopes, safety boundaries, and integration notes. ## Trust and company - [Privacy policy](https://livepolls.com/privacy): How vote data is handled. - [Terms of service](https://livepolls.com/terms): Service terms. - Operated by: Datasamy, Inc
