Interactive sessions that get everyone involved

The Present Live feature lets you host dynamic group activities - like quizzes, polls, and Q&As - directly in Genially. The presenter controls everything from the pace of the slides to who can take part.

  • All on one platform

    Design the session content and run it live, all in Genially. There’s no need for any other game tools like Kahoot.

  • Easy to present

    See who’s joined and kick off the session once you’re ready to start. Participants wait in the lobby until you say go.

  • Host a real-time conversation

    Elicit feedback from your audience, reveal the answers to questions, and display contributions on the screen.

  • Remove participants

    Got an unruly student disrupting the session? Discreetly remove participants in 1 click.

Join from any device

Easy to join via access code

Interactive activities

Enhance learning with individual interaction

One of the unique things about Genially is the option to combine synchronous and asynchronous activities. As well as answering questions - simultaneously with the group - participants can click, explore, and interact with elements on their own screen.
