Depends

Should I use Attendzy?

Classroom engagement for higher ed: free attendance, polls, AI quizzes, games, peer evaluation, and subject pools. - attendzy.com

· 2 days ago

Free attendance for individual instructors makes a trial low risk. Institutions hold off: evidence is almost all Attendzy's own pages, and the security page is broken.

Confidence

Low. Based on 9 usable public sources; most are Attendzy's own marketing pages.
