This would be great to assist with facilitation - music for 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes etc. This would give audio cues to the participants and the facilitators to close a poll/interaction within x time.

Thanks so much for this idea! We can definitely see how music could help with engagement — especially things like timing guidance or creating a bit of atmosphere while people are responding.

Right now, we’re not planning to introduce music or sound yet. One of the trickier parts is making sure it works smoothly in different set-ups (especially hybrid meetings) without being disruptive.

It would be really helpful to understand your use case a little more:

Would you mainly use this for live sessions or also for async use?
Would short “timed” music clips (e.g. 30 sec / 1 min / 5 min) be most helpful?
Would you expect the facilitator to trigger the music, or should it start automatically?

We’ve also written a bit about handling quiet moments and transitions in meetings here, which might be interesting context for this idea: How to Deal With Awkward Silences During Meetings - Slido Blog

Thanks again for sharing this — really appreciate it!
