PollPal

Ask the same question over time and see where opinion is heading

One poll is a snapshot. Ask it every week, month or season and you get a trend. PollPal keeps every round of the same poll, charts how each answer moves, and sketches the next result once there's enough history.

Free. No credit card. Voters never need an account.

How it works

  1. 1

    Run your poll

    Ask your question once, as a live poll or a recap of one you ran elsewhere.

  2. 2

    Start a new round

    When it's time to ask again, start a new round with the same options. Past rounds are kept.

  3. 3

    Watch the trend

    After two rounds you get a trend chart. After three, a dashed projection of the next result.

How the projection works

PollPal fits a straight trend line through each answer's share of the vote across your most recent rounds (up to five), then extends it one round forward. The projected shares are scaled so they still add up to 100%.

It's a simple estimate, not a forecast you should bet on. It's honest about what it is: it shows where things are heading if the current trend holds.

Great for

  • Weekly power rankings and MVP races
  • Monthly community check-ins, like "How's the economy feeling?"
  • Season-long fantasy football questions
  • Creators tracking what their audience wants next

Share the shift

Trend graphics show how opinion moved round by round, which often makes a better post than a single result. "Support for Option A doubled since March" is a story people want to share.

Questions

How many rounds do I need for a projection?

Two rounds unlock the trend chart. Three or more unlock the projected next result.

Is the projection a real prediction?

It's a simple linear trend, so treat it as a direction, not a guarantee. Poll results reflect the people who chose to vote.

Does it cost anything?

No. Recurring polls, trend charts and projections are free.
