The live word cloud that grows as your audience types.
Ask one question, get one picture. Every answer joins the cloud live, repeated words grow bigger, and the room's consensus becomes visible in seconds — with AI grouping the themes behind the words while you keep presenting.

Word cloud
What's one word that describes your ideal meeting?
Waiting for responses...
Retros that say the quiet part out loud.
One word each, anonymous, all at once. The sprint's real story — momentum and time pressure sharing the same cloud — shows up before anyone has to be the first to say 'rushed' in front of the team.

Vocabulary practice the whole class can see.
Every synonym lands in the cloud as students type. Common answers grow, rare ones spark discussion, and the AI panel sorts the lot by register — everyday, expressive, literary — while you teach.

Icebreakers that work at any scale.
Ten people or a packed keynote hall — everyone answers in the same five seconds and watches the room take shape overhead. A living word cloud beats a show of hands the moment the audience outgrows one table.

Why word clouds work
A live word cloud collects one-word answers from your audience and sizes each word by how often it's submitted. The constraint is the point: one word forces everyone to reduce a feeling or an idea to its essence, and the sizing does the analysis for you — the consensus is legible from the back row.
Because answers are anonymous and simultaneous, a word cloud captures what a discussion often can't: the honest spread of a group's mood before anyone anchors it. That's why the format shows up in retros, classrooms, workshops, and conference openers alike. In Decka, the cloud builds live on your slide as answers arrive, and AI groups the words into themes — so you can talk about what the room means, not just what it typed.
FAQ
Word cloud questions, answered
How does a live word cloud generator work?
You ask one question and each participant submits a word from their phone. Words appear on your slide as they arrive, and repeated words grow larger — frequency drives size, so the room's most common answers dominate the picture.
Do participants need to download an app?
No. They scan a QR code on the slide and type in their phone's browser. There's nothing to install and no account to create.
How many people can join a word cloud?
Up to 30 participants per live activity on the free plan and up to 300 on Pro. Everyone already in a session stays connected even if the cap is reached.
Can AI help interpret the results?
Yes. Decka groups the submitted words into themes and shows a live breakdown beside the cloud, so you can talk about what the room means instead of eyeballing fifty words mid-presentation.
Does it work in PowerPoint or Google Slides?
Yes. Decka works as a standalone web editor, as a PowerPoint add-in, and as a Google Slides extension — the cloud builds live inside the deck you already present.
