How it works

Ask on Monday. Know by Thursday.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you want to know

    Write the question yourself, or give us the gist and we'll draft it. One question, two to six answers.

  2. 02

    Readers answer inside articles

    Your poll runs across matching articles on the network. Answering takes one tap, right on the page.

  3. 03

    You get the results

    Answers start landing in 24–72 hours. Watch them live, and keep the campaign running when you want a bigger sample.

Every campaign is reviewed by a person, not a model, before it runs — and you approve the plan before you’re billed.

What brands use it for

Research first. Leads when you want them.

Market research

Test the idea before you commit to it.

  • Concept, message, and pricing tests with thousands of real people
  • Readers answering mid-article, not panelists speed-running a survey
  • Results split by audience: news, sports, business, and more

Lead generation

Turn a poll into a pipeline.

  • End your poll with an offer readers can opt into
  • You get the contact list — people who raised their hand
  • Works well as the follow-up to a research campaign

Do you run a website?

Add a poll to your articles, give readers a say, and earn from sponsored campaigns.
