A ClassPoint alternative that runs in any browser

ClassPoint is a Microsoft PowerPoint add-in for Windows made by Inknoe, a Singapore company founded in 2015, which says ClassPoint is used by more than 1 million educators in over 100 countries. Teachers add quizzes, polls, word clouds and drawing activities to their existing slides, and students answer from any browser after entering a class code at classpoint.app. It also brings presentation tools such as inking, a whiteboard, timers and a random name picker, plus stars, levels and badges that carry over between lessons. In 2026 ClassPoint added a browser-based Presenter web app for Mac, iPad and Chromebook users, and it has announced Google Slides support as in development.

Best for: Teachers and trainers who already present from PowerPoint on Windows and want interactivity without leaving their slides.
