We got frustrated.
So we built something better.
The tools that already existed were either too expensive, too complicated, or both. We think live audience engagement should be accessible to anyone with a room and a question.
The problem
Pricing that
punishes curiosity.
Tools like Mentimeter and Slido do the job. But features locked behind paywalls and per-seat costs make no sense for a classroom or a one-off workshop.
Our answer
Honest pricing.
No surprises.
Free for small sessions, fair when you scale. No surprise limits, no enterprise sales call required.
The vision
Beyond polling.
Truly interactive rooms.
Any teacher, facilitator, or conference speaker should be able to make their room truly interactive. That’s where we’re headed.
The name
indaba
/ɪnˈdɑːbə/ · isiZulu & isiXhosa
A gathering where community members come together to discuss what matters and reach common ground. Rooted in the Zulu and Xhosa traditions of Southern Africa, the word means“matter” or “business”: the thing worth talking about.
