How Joocy compares

Joocy is an interactive presentation tool like Mentimeter, Slido and AhaSlides: people join on their phones through a web address and a code, and answer polls, quizzes, word clouds and Q&A live. It differs in three ways: your own AI can make and run the deck, slides can be code or 3D worlds, and each person can be spoken to by name. It is in invite-only early access.

What only Joocy does

Of these four tools, as of October 2026, only Joocy lets your own AI start the live session and move its slides, lets any slide be your own code wired to the room, and changes the words for each person in it.

Your AI runs itMentimeter and AhaSlides now let ChatGPT and Claude build slides, and we found nothing like it for Slido. In Joocy, Claude, ChatGPT through Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor or any MCP agent can also start the session, move the slides while you talk, send a live cue to every phone and write coded slides, through an MCP server, an API and a skill file. Every change is a version you can undo.
Code and 3DAny slide, and any phone screen, can be HTML with three.js, WebGL, GSAP or React, from a kit Joocy serves itself. A deck can be one 3D world the camera flies through, and a tap on a phone can light up the scene on the wall. Picture a night sky where every person who joins becomes a glowing star with their name on it.
Every personA phone can read "Photographer, how was your year?" because that person said photographer earlier. Only the photographers get the follow up, while everyone else answers something of their own. Results split by an earlier answer too, as Mentimeter's can for multiple choice.
