# Polls for Gmail

> Polls for Gmail is a Google Workspace add-on that lets you create polls inside Gmail and embed them in any email. Recipients vote in one click directly from their inbox — no account, no app, no link to follow. Only the poll creator needs an account. Free plan includes 3 polls; Standard is $50/year for 5 polls per calendar month; Pro is $100/year for unlimited polls plus color themes, voting deadlines, hide-results, CSV export, and branding removal.

Key facts:
- Install from the Google Workspace Marketplace; a poll icon appears in Gmail's compose sidebar.
- Up to 6 options per poll, unlimited voters, anonymous voting.
- Results stream into a live dashboard at https://pollsforgmail.com/dashboard.
- Voting works in any email client (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail) — the vote buttons are plain HTML links.
