Rating Scale is the live sliding-scale slide: 1 to 10, star ratings, emoji faces, or your own custom scale. Audiences drag a slider from their phone to score a statement; the aggregated average appears live on the big screen. It is the format for pulse checks, session feedback, satisfaction scores, and any "how much" question.
How Rating Scale works
Rating Scale is a single unscored slide (one statement, one slider, aggregated group score):
- Write the statement to be rated: "How useful was this session?", "How ready are you to ship?".
- Choose the scale type: 1 to 10, star rating, emoji faces, or a custom pair of endpoints.
- Share the join code; audiences drag the slider on their phone to their answer.
- The presenter view shows the aggregated average and full distribution as votes come in.
Best for
Rating Scale fits any question where the answer is "how much", not "which option":
- Trainers & facilitators: session-feedback pulses ("rate today's workshop 1 to 10").
- Team leads: mood checks, energy pulses, and quarterly-satisfaction ratings.
- HR & people teams: engagement surveys, NPS-style team-health checks, retro-satisfaction scores.
- Product managers: feature-satisfaction ratings and post-launch customer feedback collection.
Why teams love Rating Scale
Rating Scale is the slide teams reach for when a yes-or-no answer would lose all the nuance:
- Continuous input: captures the shade of grey between "great" and "terrible".
- Aggregated group score: the average shows the room-level answer at a glance.
- Multiple scale types: 1 to 10 for pulses, stars for satisfaction, emoji for mood.
- Anonymous by default: encourages honest ratings, especially on sensitive feedback.
Free to run and the sharpest way to turn a "how do you feel?" question into a real number.
