What it does
PollUnit creates polls, surveys, idea collections, and media contests. Voting types, point allowances, and survey branching support different ways of collecting group input.
For a prioritization exercise, choose PollUnit's Dot Voting and set both the points available to each person and the points they may give one option. The first controls their total influence; the second controls how much can be concentrated on one idea.
The full-allocation setting makes a participant's points count toward the ranking only after every dot has been distributed. An incomplete allocation remains outside the ranking, although administrators can still inspect and export it. Explain the rule in the invitation so an unfinished vote is not mistaken for a counted one.
Participant and file limits
| Plan | Monthly price in USD | Participants per PollUnit | Files per PollUnit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 40 | 20 |
| Premium | USD 11 | 200 | 100 |
| Business | USD 36 | 2,000 | 500 |
| Enterprise | USD 105 | 20,000 | 1,000 |
Every plan allows unlimited PollUnits. Annual payment is also available. Paid access can renew as a subscription or end automatically after a single purchased term; a single payment is not lifetime access.
You can create a free poll without an account. Registering keeps your PollUnits together in the account, while the administrator link provides management and evaluation access. Share the participant link with voters and keep the administrator link for the people managing the decision.
