Can our own host use trivia software?
Yes. Your own host, a staff member or a freelance quizmaster, runs the night from a phone, tablet or laptop. Quizado handles the questions, the phone answers, the scoring and the big screen. On Pro the host writes their own questions. Your venue can hold the plan, or the host can hold their own.
Quizado is software that your own staff run, or Auto-Host runs a Trivia night by itself. We never send a host.

What your host does, and what the software does
Your host keeps the mic, the jokes and the pace. The software shows each question on the big screen, collects the answers from the players' phones, scores them and shows the standings. The host moves the night on from a phone, tablet or laptop and can pause or skip at any moment.
Their own questions, or ready-made ones
On Pro and Business the host writes their own packs, with picture and audio questions. On Business they can bulk import the questions they already have. Or they pick a ready-made pack, or type a topic and the AI writes a whole night. They can print the questions when they want paper as well.
Who holds the plan
If the host works only at your venue, your venue holds the plan and the host runs the night on it. A freelance host who works several bars can hold their own plan instead: one venue on it, named after their act, and its big screen shows one game at a time. Neither needs a special licence.
A host who runs games in two places at the same time needs an extra venue on the plan for each one.
A new host, or a night off
If your host is new, Host Coach shows a card on the host panel: what to do now and one line to say out loud. It is free on every plan. On a night your host is off, Auto-Host can run the Trivia night by itself on Pro and Business.
Questions venues ask
Does Quizado replace the host we have?
Only if you want it to. Your host can run every night, or Auto-Host can run a Trivia night by itself when the host is off. Quizado never sends a host of its own.
Can a hired host use their own Quizado account at our bar?
Yes. Pubs and hired hosts are fine on any plan, with no special licence. A freelance host on Pro runs your night with their own account and their own questions.
Do players need an app?
No. Players scan the code on the big screen and answer in their phone browser, with no app and no account.
Can the host run Music Bingo and game-show nights too?
Yes. Music Bingo is on Pro and Business. Family Face-Off and QuizoParty, our two game-show formats, play on every plan.
How does the host try it first?
Start on the free plan: up to 4 player phones and 2 game starts in 24 hours. When the host wants their own questions and the full night, start the 7-day trial of Pro or Business.
