Mam talent! (English: I have talent!) is the Polish version of the Got Talent series. The aim of the program is to choose the most talented person from people showing their talents. The winner of the show in the first series got €100,000, in the second and third series – 300,000 złotys. Prizes for people from the second and third place are chosen by producers of the shows. The show is hosted by Agnieszka Woźniak-Starak and Jan Pirowski,^[1] and the judges are Agnieszka Chylińska, Marcin Prokop and Julia Wieniawa.

Qualifications

In the autumn, before the preliminaries, there are preliminary castings (without TV broadcasts), which determined the qualification of the participants for the performance in front of the jurors' presentation, the audience and cameras. In the second section, conducted in the summer in Polish cities (in Katowice, Gdańsk, Poznań, Wrocław and Warsaw), about four thousand performers appeared. The jury qualified for the final stage of 130. The jury's decision was made by adjudicating or resolving a negative assessment. In order to be qualified, you must enter the competition, two jurors must be "yes". If one of the jurors performs, the event is considered unsuccessful, he presses the button, which turns on the red cross (3 crosses mean the end of the performance). 130 people were selected by the 40 who went on to the semi-finals. From the 7th edition, it was changed (as in the English version of the show) to the "golden button". Each juror (or host) during all castings can turn it on once, and the participant automatically went to the semi-final

Semi-finals

Participants in the semi-finals (from the 1st to the 12th edition - five, from the 13th edition - four) present themselves on stage in live programs, in front of the jury in the same composition, TV cameras and the audience. In each, there are eight people/groups (in the 13th edition, 10 people/groups) from the selected "40". The jurors evaluate in the same way as before, but at this stage the decision about the participant's passage to the next phase of the program is made by the viewers by calling or sending an SMS to their favorite. In the 12th edition, viewers could also vote via the website decy.online. The participant who receives the most votes goes to the finals, and from the two participants who, according to the viewers, took second and third place, the jury members vote for their favorite. The person with more votes from the jury also goes to the finals. The Platinum button has been in operation since the 13th edition, thanks to which one person/group selected by the jury during the live semi-finals will go directly to the final. Another novelty is the so-called Wild card, pass to the finals; it will be awarded to the person/group who won the largest number of votes in the viewers' vote among the participants who were eliminated during the jury's overtime in the semi-finals

Final stage

Ten participants take part in the final, two from each semi-final. The evaluation of the performances is the same as in the semi-finals, but the method of determining the winner is different. First, in random order, the names of the groups that took the first three places are read out, then the name of the person who took the third place is given. At the end, the hosts inform the viewers about the winner, to whom they give a check for PLN 300,000 (PLN 100,000 for the runner-up is given after the programme). After the award ceremony, the winner presents his performance again.
