Slido pricing, price hikes and cheaper alternatives
Slido (slido.com) is a presentation tool. Free Basic plan plus annual plan subscriptions (no monthly billing), one-time per-event passes for events of up to 7 days, and quote-only plans for 10+ members.. Free plan: Basic is free forever with up to 100 participants, basic Audience Q&A and 3 polls per slido, so it does not meet the unlimited-polls condition..
What Slido costs
- 1 user: $17.50/mo (Engage, annual: $17.50/month, billed $210 a year. $210 / 12 = $17.50. Free Basic is out because it caps polls at 3 per slido. Engage allows up to 200 participants, unlimited polls and quizzes, and lists no Q&A cap. A Slido logo on the join page is acceptable under the rule (branding is a Professional feature).)
- 10 users: no public price (Null: the page sends 10+ members to 'Slido for large enterprises' (custom billing, contact us). The self-serve Professional plan ($75/month, billed $900 a year) includes only 2 members and shows no per-member price, so no 10-seat total can be read from the page.)
Plan compared: Engage annual plan: $210 billed yearly, i.e. $17.50 a month (annual-only, so annual / 12).. Cheapest self-serve plan, billed monthly (annual price ÷ 12 when only annual billing is sold), that lets each user make, present and share decks with no vendor watermark. AI makers must cover 10 AI-generated decks a month; audience-interaction tools must run unlimited live sessions of 100 participants.
