Let participants join without creating an account

Reduce setup time
Participants open the session in a browser instead of installing an app or completing an account-registration flow.
Choose how people join
Share a short session code, display a QR link or send a direct link before or during the session.
Keep the host in control
The host manages the session flow, activities, groups and results while participants focus on contributing.
