The Brazilian alternative
to Mentimeter 🇧🇷
- The invoice stops depending on the dollar: a fixed R$ 69/month, by Pix or bank slip.
- The free ceiling stops being a monthly balance and becomes 40 people in every session.
- You write to support in Portuguese and the people who answer actually use the product.
- Meetings start ending in a decision: native 2x2 matrix, MoSCoW and dot voting.
- Legal stops asking where the audience data lives: there is no audience data.
- You give up the template library — in Pipo, building starts from your own content.
- You lose the PowerPoint plugin and the native Teams and Zoom integrations.
- You lose simultaneous multilingual presenting, if you present to the same audience in two languages.
- You lose the name nobody questions inside a multinational — and enterprise contracts with SSO.
The three reasons that bring people here
The exchange rate. A Mentimeter subscription is priced in foreign currency, so December's invoice is not January's and it still carries IOF tax on top. A department budget that has to close the year on a fixed number suffers from that.
The free-tier maths. The free plan's 50 participants are a monthly, cumulative balance: a single class of 45 people practically ends the month. Teachers and facilitators who present every week find this out on their second presentation.
The language of things going wrong. The interface is translated, but the support ticket, the help centre and the invoice arrive in English — and it is exactly when something jams, ten minutes before going on stage, that this weighs.
What switching costs (in hours, not in reais)
Switching tools is scarier for the migration than for the subscription. In practice, the cost is retyping content — and that is where the editor's AI assistant comes in: you paste the text of your presentations and it hands back the Pipo already built. A 10-slide interactive presentation takes around 15 minutes to be born in Pipo, against the hours it took to be born the first time.
There is no importer that reads a Mentimeter file — no tool on the market opens another's format. Prefer migrating the two or three presentations you actually reuse, and leave the archive where it is: your free Mentimeter account stays yours, with the history intact.
Migration in 3 steps
1. Create your free account (no card) and open the editor.
2. Paste the content of your presentations — questions, options, supporting text — into the editor's AI assistant: it builds the Pipo with the equivalent games (a poll becomes a poll, a quiz becomes a quiz with scoring).
3. Run a test session with the 6-digit code on your own phone. If the experience convinces you, paid plans unlock a bigger audience and every game — and if it doesn't, free stays yours.
Before migrating, check these four points
Five minutes of checking is worth it so you do not find out on stage: (a) the size of your largest audience — 40 fit in Free, 60 in Essential and 200 in Pro; (b) whether any presentation of yours depends on running inside PowerPoint, because that plugin does not exist here; (c) whether you present in English or Spanish, since Pipo has all three languages but switches one per session, not all three at once; and (d) whether your IT requires SSO, which is not part of the plans yet.
Passed all four? The switch is painless. Failed one, the honest answer is to stay — and our head-to-head comparison shows why, with no makeup on.
Questions from people comparing
Is there a Brazilian alternative to Mentimeter?
Yes: Pipo Guru, made in Curitiba. Interactive presentations with quiz, poll, word cloud and prioritisation games, with the audience joining through the browser with a 6-digit code — no app and no sign-up. Priced in Brazilian reais with support in Portuguese.
Can I import my Mentimeter presentations?
There is no automatic importer — not even between the tools on the market, because none opens another's format. The practical path is to paste the text of your questions into the editor's AI assistant, which builds the Pipo with the equivalent games in a few minutes.
How long does migrating actually take?
Around 15 minutes per 10-slide interactive presentation, pasting the content into the assistant. The recommendation is to migrate only the two or three you genuinely reuse and leave the archive parked in your free Mentimeter account, which stays yours.
Will my audience need to learn anything new?
No. The gesture is the same one they already know: open the phone's browser, type a 6-digit code and take part. No app to install, no login to create and no email to hand over.
What if I migrate and regret it?
Nothing gets locked in. Your Mentimeter account keeps existing with the original presentations, and in Pipo the free plan never expires and asks for no card — you can run both tools in parallel for a whole semester before deciding.

Switch in practice, not in theory
Build your next presentation on Pipo and run it free with up to 40 people. If the room gets more involved, the migration paid for itself.
