A Discord poll bot for votes that matter
Discord's built-in polls are fine for "pizza or burgers?". When it matters who votes, how much a vote counts and when the vote ends, you need more control. That's what Polls is for.

Questions & answers
Is Polls free?
Yes. Every feature that decides who votes and how votes count is free. Premium only removes the limit of 5 running polls and adds exports and a custom bot design.
How is this different from Discord's own polls?
Discord's polls have up to 10 answers and no rules about who may vote. Polls adds requirements, role weights, schedules, closing rules, anonymous voting and more. See the full comparison.
Which permissions does Polls need?
View Channel, Send Messages and Read Message History in the poll channel, plus Create Public Threads and Send Messages in Threads if you want a thread per poll. /debug checks them for you.
Can members vote outside Discord?
Yes, on polls.bot after logging in with Discord, if web voting is on. Polls checks with Discord that they're on the server and can see the poll channel.
