Suggesting random options for quiz questions

Slido can help create Quizzes faster by suggesting (im)plausible options Suggestions for your Quiz questionApr 1st 2021For your next Quiz, Slido can help you find potential options for your questions. The suggestions are just one click away and you can finish the preparation of the Quiz much quicker. Creating a good Quiz is a time-consuming job. Even when you come up with a good question and the correct answer, searching for the incorrect options can be very demanding. With the help of a Text Generation model, we are able to suggest options for your Quiz questions. While they can be generated using just the Quiz question, they will immediately improve once you provide the correct or incorrect answer(s). The model has been trained on public Slido Quizzes. “Our goal is to save your precious time while creating the Quiz and possibly also increase the fun element of it.” (Peter, Product Manager) All you have to do is to type in your Quiz question. The suggestions will be displayed once yo

Sunsetting Slido's Slack integration: Here's why and what's next

We're announcing today that we'll be turning off our Slack integration on November 30th. Two years ago, we launched our Slack app to make it easier for our users to collect questions without the need to leave Slack.I know that for some of you, the news may come as a surprise. Let me share how we came to this decision and what might come next. 🌇 Why we’re sunsetting our Slack integrationWith this integration, we wanted to bring Slido closer to where you work. Despite our best efforts, it missed the mark in a few ways:The feature enables users only to collect questions or ideas. If they want team members to upvote them, they have to leave Slack and do it in a browser. With the current integration, users can't create and share polls in Slack.To address these limitations and bring Slido to Slack in a way it deserves, we need to rethink our approach and build it from the ground up. 👀 What's nextFirst, I want to thank you for having been on this journey with us and for sharing all the comm
