BrainCraft vs Crowdpurr

BrainCraft turns presentations into live sessions where audiences can respond rather than only watch. Hosts can choose among 20 interaction types, including multiple choice, polls, open questions, word clouds, ratings, and brainstorming. Responses appear live, with post-session analytics for hosts and a personal recap of answers and performance for participants. Participants join by QR code or short session code without an account or app; the education page says a browser on a phone, tablet, or laptop is enough. BrainCraft says its polls and Q&As work online with Zoom, Teams, or Meet. The Free plan is free, billed forever, and allows 20 participants per session, five sessions monthly, and 20 slides per session. Educator costs $4.99 a month and allows 100 participants, unlimited sessions and slides, and PDF export. Pro costs $10.99 a month and adds a coding terminal, CSV and PDF export, and up to four workspace members. Institution includes API access and SSO / SAML, with price available by contacting the maker. Paid plans include a 14-day money-back guarantee.

Crowdpurr creates interactive experiences for live, virtual and hybrid events, including polls, trivia games, social walls and bingo. Participants join through a browser, with no native app download required. Hosts can show Presentation View on a projector or TV, stream it on YouTube Live or OBS, or share it in Zoom or Webex. A Webex Embedded App can launch Crowdpurr inside a Webex meeting. The trivia library contains over 2,000 games, and Crowdpurr AI can generate games, add questions, create notes and rewrite questions. Social Walls can collect hashtag posts from X (Twitter) and Instagram, while participants can upload photos. Responses, results, lead capture and rankings can be exported to Excel or Google Sheets. The free Basic Plan allows 20 participants and 15 questions per experience, three simultaneous experiences and 15 minutes of host live streaming. Paid plans start at $24.99/mo; Classroom is listed at $49.99 a month and includes 100 participants per experience, 100 questions and 10 simultaneous experiences.
