A PubQuiz.com alternative for a pub quiz with no quizmaster
Your pub wants a quiz night every week, and nobody on the rota wants the microphone. PubQuiz.com sells a pre-recorded quiz per night. Quizado is software: Auto-Host runs the whole Trivia night by itself on the TV you already have, on one monthly plan.
PubQuiz.com sells pre-recorded quizzes from £25 per quiz with no subscription (their site, November 2026), and a recorded voice reads every question. Quizado is quiz software on one monthly plan: Auto-Host runs the Trivia night and reads each question aloud on the big screen in a generated MC voice, your own questions included.
Quizado vs. PubQuiz.com
Warum von PubQuiz.com wechseln?
A price for every night
PubQuiz.com charges "From £25 per quiz" and asks you to contact them for the price of your chosen format (their site, November 2026). Our arithmetic: 4 quizzes at £25 is £100 a month before any format surcharge.
Quizado is one monthly plan, however many nights you run. The pricing page shows the live price in pounds for a UK visitor, so you can compare the two numbers yourself.
A quiz about your own pub
A recorded quiz is made before it reaches you. Their site does not say that you can add your own questions, a local round or a round about your beer list.
In Quizado you write your own questions on every plan and host them from Pro. AI writes a themed round from a short prompt on every paid plan, and you edit each question before the night.
An app before the first answer
Their players answer in a customer app for Apple and Android devices (their site, November 2026). A guest without the app downloads it at the table.
Quizado players join in the phone browser with a code or the QR code on the TV. No app, no account, no store download on the pub wifi.
A reason to come back next week
Their site does not state a league, a season table or a way to message the teams who played.
On Business, Quizado keeps leagues and seasons across your weeks, and you send an email and an app notification to the players who opted in to hear from your pub.
Bingo on another site
Their Jukebox Bingo runs on a separate site, musicbingo.co.uk (their site, November 2026).
Quizado has Music Bingo and Catch That Tune rounds inside the Trivia night, with Music Bingo on Pro and Business. Auto-Host runs Music Bingo rounds too.
Was Quizado besonders macht
Von Grund auf für modernes Bar-Trivia und Live-Events entwickelt.
Auto-Host runs the Trivia night
On Pro and Business, Auto-Host opens answering, runs the clock, locks the answers, reveals, scores and moves to the next question, through Buzzer Race and Music Bingo rounds too. Staff start the night and pour the pints.
An MC voice that reads the questions
On the big screen, the MC voice reads each question aloud, then the options of a multiple-choice question, and says many of the host lines, with captions. It reads any pack, your own questions included, in the language the questions are written in.
Join from the phone browser
Guests scan the QR code on the TV or type the code. No app and no account. The free plan admits 4 player phones; paid plans have no player cap.
Your questions, or AI questions
Write a local round on any plan and host it from Pro, or let AI write a round about your town, your team or your beer list on any paid plan.
Host Coach for a staff host
When a bartender runs the night instead, Host Coach shows what to do now and one line to say out loud. It is free on every plan.
Leagues for your regulars
On Business, a season table runs across the weeks and your logo sits on the big screen, so the teams come back to defend a place.
Two ways to run a pub quiz with no quizmaster
The first way is a recorded quiz. PubQuiz.com sells quizzes that are "professionally pre-recorded, so you do not need someone to read every question", and says "Your team still gets the venue ready and helps guests settle in" (their site, November 2026). You book a quiz, and the recording does the reading.
The second way is software that runs the night. Quizado Auto-Host, on Pro and Business, runs a whole Trivia night by itself: it opens answering, runs the clock, locks, reveals, scores and moves on. On the big screen it reads each question aloud in a generated MC voice, and the questions also show on every phone. If you would rather have a person on the night, your own staff run it from a phone with Host Coach.
What PubQuiz.com costs
Their site says "From £25 per quiz. No subscriptions." and asks you to contact them for the price of your chosen format (their site, November 2026). It does not say whether VAT is included. Our arithmetic: 4 quizzes at £25 is £100 a month before any format surcharge.
Quizado is one monthly plan that covers every night you run, and you cancel it any month. Auto-Host is on Pro and Business. The pricing page shows the live price in pounds for a UK visitor.
What they claim
PubQuiz.com shows the logos of Stonegate Group, Marston's, Sky Sports and M&B under "In good company", and claims "3,000+ quizzes played nationwide each month" (their site, November 2026). They claim longer dwell time on quiz nights, from their own brief; their page says "Results vary by venue". We cannot check these figures, so we do not repeat them as fact.
Who should stay, who should switch
Stay with PubQuiz.com if...
A recorded quiz is the better fit for some pubs.
- +You want a recorded human quizmaster to read every question, music rounds included
- +You want to pay for each quiz and have no monthly plan
- +Your music runs on Startle or Sound Leisure and you want the quiz to play through it
- +Your regulars come for The Sports Edition or their monthly specials
Switch to Quizado if...
These are the reasons a pub moves to software.
- +You run a quiz every week and want one monthly plan, not a price per night
- +You want rounds about your own town, team or beer list
- +You want players to answer in the phone browser with no app download
- +You want leagues, your logo and messages to your regulars (Business)
- +You want other game nights, such as Family Face-Off or Music Bingo, in the same app
How to switch in 3 steps
Play a free night first
Make a free account and play a free pack with up to 4 phones on a quiet night. Nothing you have booked needs to change.
Run one night on Auto-Host
On Pro or Business, pick a pack or let AI write one, put the big screen on the TV, start Auto-Host and watch the night run.
Stop booking quizzes
When the room is happy, stop booking per-quiz nights and keep the weekly night on your plan. Start a league on Business so the teams come back.
What PubQuiz.com does that we do not
A professional recording is a human voice, and it can sound more natural than our MC voice, which is generated text-to-speech. Our voice reads only on the big screen, needs an internet connection and skips slides, music questions and questions with a clip. They offer integrations with Startle and Sound Leisure; we have no sound-system integration. You pay per quiz with no subscription; we sell a monthly plan. And Auto-Host runs Trivia only: Family Face-Off and QuizoParty need a person.
