What a Virtual Event Platform Needs to Do
A virtual event platform isn't just a video conferencing tool. The full event lifecycle — from promotion to post-event analysis — requires several distinct capabilities working together. Most platforms charge separately for each. Here's what you actually need:
Event Page Creation
A public-facing event page with title, description, date, time, location (or virtual link), and registration form.
Registration Management
Collect attendee details, manage capacity, send confirmation emails, and track who has registered.
Live Engagement Tools
Live polls, Q&A, and audience interaction features that keep virtual attendees engaged during the event.
Post-Event Feedback
Automated post-event surveys sent to attendees to collect feedback and measure satisfaction.
Analytics & Reporting
Registration rates, attendance rates, engagement metrics, and feedback scores in one dashboard.
AI Insights
Automatic analysis of post-event feedback to surface key themes, sentiment, and actionable improvements.
How to Set Up a Virtual Event on Untold Opinion
Create your event page
Go to Events → Create Event. Add your event title, description, date, time, and whether it's virtual or in-person. Add a cover image to make it visually compelling.
Set up registration
Enable registration and set your capacity limit. Attendees register with their name and email. You get a live dashboard showing who has signed up.
Create pre-event polls
Create polls related to your event topic. Share them with registrants before the event to build anticipation and gather baseline opinions.
Run live polls during the event
Share poll links during your virtual event for real-time audience interaction. Display live results on screen to spark discussion.
Send post-event survey
After the event, send a post-event feedback survey to all registrants. Use AI analysis to automatically summarise responses and identify key themes.

Virtual Event Engagement Best Practices
Run a pre-event poll to warm up your audience and give them a reason to engage before the event starts.
Use live polls every 15–20 minutes during the event to maintain attention and create discussion moments.
Display live poll results on screen — seeing how the audience voted in real time is inherently engaging.
Send the post-event survey within 2 hours of the event ending, while the experience is still fresh.
Keep the post-event survey to 5–7 questions. Longer surveys get significantly lower completion rates.
Share a summary of poll results and key feedback themes with attendees after the event — it shows you listened.
