It started with a presentation
Founded in 2008, the idea of Poll Everywhere was conjured from a presentation. Co-founders Jeff Vyduna and Brad Gessler met while both consultants at Deloitte. As they sat through countless meetings and presentations, they discovered that many people often zoned out, checked their phones, or started side conversations.
An app is born
Eager to maintain their audience’s attention as they presented, Vyduna and Gessler created a text-based voting application that allowed the audience to submit responses via SMS texting and see their responses updated in real-time on their presentation. The application was a hit, and Vyduna and Gessler were inspired to make all presentations more engaging. And thus, Poll Everywhere was born.
Who we are and how to join
Poll Everywhere began in San Francisco, and today we’ve grown into a remote-first team building a culture of inclusion and curiosity where people take ownership and grow through meaningful work. As a remote-first team, we empower compassionate individuals to learn continuously, take initiative, and push themselves toward new challenges.
We believe growth comes from curiosity—seeking feedback, tackling challenges head-on, and stretching into the unknown. We take pride in aiming for excellence, building products that people love to share with colleagues and students alike. And we embrace autonomy, encouraging each person to take ownership, ask questions, and shape their own path.
Like sled dogs that live to run, we find joy and purpose in the work itself—building tools that spark conversations, create connection, and give every voice a chance to be heard.
