Every poll type, clearly.

What the audience sees on their phone, and what the room sees on the big screen β€” for every type you can build in Admin.

πŸ† Ranking

Attendees put every option in their order β€” favorite at the top. Each ballot scores every option with Borda points, so the standings show the room's real consensus, not just first choices.

2–8 options. Standings sort by points, then by average rank.

πŸ† Quiz mode

Not a separate type β€” a mode on multiple choice. Mark a correct answer, flip on Quiz mode, and set an optional timer. A timed quiz closes itself when the clock runs out, answers are scored instantly, and a leaderboard ranks the room by who got it right fastest.

Attendee sees

The question with a live countdown chip while the clock runs, instant right/wrong feedback after voting, and their place on the leaderboard when the poll closes.

Timer from 1 second to an hour β€” or leave it untimed. Correct answers always rank ahead of fast wrong ones.

πŸ” Pre / Post comparison

Pair two identical multiple choice polls β€” one asked before a session, one after β€” and JaydLive compares them side by side: the pre and post percentage for every option, plus the change in points. Program the pair on the Polls Programming page; the comparison appears on the display and in the Moderator Console when the post poll is featured.

Demographic breakdown

When an event collects ID fields at join, any multiple choice poll's results can also be broken down by an ID field β€” for example by Department β€” so you can see how each group in the room answered.

πŸ“‹ Multi-question surveys

Group two or more polls into one survey β€” attendees answer them together, in order, on one card. Programmed on the Polls Programming page; launched from the Moderator Console or the PowerPoint pane.

Attendee sees

The questions one after another, with a running count β€” "Answered 2 of 5" β€” and a "Survey complete β€” thanks!" when they finish.

Big screen shows

Every question's live results, stacked on the room screen.

πŸ’¬ Moderated Q&A

Always available alongside polls. The audience asks and upvotes; a moderator approves each question before the room sees it β€” or turn moderation off and questions post instantly.

How does this apply to pediatric cases?

On the room screen

Nothing β€” the big screen stays on the live poll. Approved questions appear on the audience's phones and in the moderator's console, in upvote order β€” the speaker works down that list.
