Staff-hosted trivia

Run it with the team you already have.

You do not need a quiz company or a born entertainer. Quizado runs the clock, the answers and the scores. Your bartender presses start.

No host fee, no contract, no hardware.

Auto-Host

The night runs itself. Your staff keep serving.

Auto-Host does the part that keeps a person tied to the laptop. It opens the answers, counts down, locks, reveals, scores and moves to the next question.

  • You set the pace. Relaxed, Normal or Quick.
  • Step in at any moment. Pause, skip or take over by hand.
  • Runs from the TV too, on Apple TV

Auto-Host does not read questions aloud. The room reads them on the screen and on their phones.

Host Coach and ready nights

A first-timer gets the next line. The quiz is already written.

Host Coach is a card on the host's screen. At each moment it says what to do and gives one line to say. Nobody has to write a question either.

  • Three new ready-made nights every week: Trivia, Family Face-Off and QuizoParty, in 8 languages
  • A fresh night to the length you want, from questions your venue has not played in 12 months
  • Or type a topic. The AI writes a whole night, from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Print the questions when you want paper as well

Host Coach is free on every plan. Ready-made nights and AI nights are on every paid plan.

The cost

A fee for every show, or one price a month.

A quiz company is a good service. It is also an invoice for every night you open.

Where a quiz company wins

  • Nobody on your team wants to hold a microphone, even with Auto-Host.
  • You want a trained performer as part of the draw.
  • You want someone else to own the night from start to finish.
What you need in the venue

Three things, and you already have two.

01

A device to host from

A laptop, a tablet or a phone. Mac, Windows, iOS, Android or a browser tab.

02

A screen the room can see

The TV on the wall or a projector. Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV or an HDMI cable.

03

Internet your guests can reach

Players answer on their own phones. Venue Wi-Fi or mobile data both work.

Hosting with your own team

Straight answers.

Can someone with no hosting experience run it?

Yes. Auto-Host runs the questions and the scores, and Host Coach shows what to do and say at each step. The first night takes a few minutes to prepare.

Does Auto-Host read the questions aloud?

No. Questions show on the big screen and on players' phones. A person on a microphone is optional.

Can we still use our regular host?

Yes. A host can run every step by hand and use Quizado for the questions, buzzers and scoring.

Who writes the questions?

Nobody has to. Three ready-made nights arrive every week, the library holds more packs, and the AI writes a night from a topic. On Pro and Business you can also write your own.

What if the Wi-Fi fails?

Trivia needs a connection, because players answer on their phones. Family Face-Off, QuizoParty and Territory can run with no internet from the desktop and mobile apps, on a paid plan.

Free to start

Let tonight's shift run the quiz.

Open a ready-made night, switch on Auto-Host and put the code on the TV. See how little there is to do.
