You've decided to make your next presentation interactive. Great choice. Here's how to go from zero to live polling in about 60 seconds — no credit card required.

Step 1: Create your account (10 seconds)

Head to glor.online and click Get Started. Sign up with your email — you'll be in your dashboard within moments. The free tier gives you everything you need to get started.

Step 2: Create an event (10 seconds)

Click New Event, give it a name (e.g. "Team All-Hands" or "Marketing Workshop"), and you're done. Glór generates a unique 6-character join code that your audience will use to participate.

Step 3: Add your first poll (20 seconds)

Inside your event, click Add Poll. You have several options:

  • Multiple Choice — classic poll with 2-6 options

  • Word Cloud — open-ended responses visualised as a word cloud

  • Open Text — free-form responses

  • Rating — numerical scale (1-5, 1-10, etc.)

  • Ranking — drag-and-drop preference ordering

Type your question, add your options, and save. You can prepare multiple polls before going live — they'll appear in the order you create them.

Step 4: Go live (5 seconds)

When you're ready, hit Start Event. Share the join code with your audience — they simply go to glor.online and enter the code. No downloads, no sign-ups, no friction.

Step 5: Engage (the fun part)

Open the Display View and project it on your screen. As your audience votes, results appear in real-time. You can:

  • Switch between polls at your own pace

  • Show or hide results until voting is complete

  • Enable Q&A for audience questions

  • Let the audience upvote each other's questions

After the session

All results are saved automatically. You can revisit them anytime from your dashboard — perfect for team reviews, post-mortems, or sharing insights with stakeholders who couldn't attend.

What's next?

Once you've run your first session, explore the features that power users love:

  • Custom branding — add your logo and colours to the display

  • Multi-language support — run sessions in English, Irish, Portuguese, Spanish, French, and German

  • Advanced poll types — image choices, dart charts, and more

Ready to try it? Your audience is waiting.
