Trivia, minus the app.
When you host trivia at your bar, hotel, classroom or block party, the first ten minutes go to "please download the app." Skip that. Players scan one QR code, type a team name, and they're in.
Wherever the room is, the game runs on phones.
Players already have the only piece of hardware they need. You put a QR code on the TV; they're in.

Advance the questions
You drive the pace from your phone. The leaderboard ticks live on the TV between rounds. No paper, no half-time tallying.
Three ways to run trivia. Two of them are friction.
App-based trivia
Players install an app, create an account, verify an email. Ten minutes gone before round one. Half the room won't bother.
Pen-and-paper quiz
Photocopies, Sharpies, half-hour scoring breaks. The host loses the room every time they go off to tally answers.
Scan + play
One QR code. Browser-only. Live leaderboard auto-updates between rounds. The host runs the night from their phone.
The trivia night, fully assembled.
Your guests already have phones. Use them.
Set up your first game in 30 seconds. Free to host, free to play. No downloads, no signups, no app-store hostage situation.
The five questions everyone asks.
Q.01 Is it free? Do I need to sign up to host?
Free to host and free to play, no credit card. You can host anonymously without signing up — anonymous hosts are limited to one active game at a time. Creating an account lets you save question packs and run multiple games.
Q.02 How many teams can play?
Up to 10 teams per game on the free tier. Each team can have multiple phones answering for the same team, so the real player ceiling is much higher. Pro plans lift the team cap for larger events.
Q.03 Do players need to download anything?
No. Players scan a QR code or type a 6-character join code in their phone's browser. The entire player experience runs in Safari, Chrome, Edge, or Firefox. Nothing to install.
Q.04 Does it work without solid Wi-Fi?
It uses lightweight websockets that tolerate weak or shared festival Wi-Fi better than most native apps. Players can also use mobile data — a full round consumes a few kilobytes per team.
Q.05 How do guests scan the QR code on a TV?
Open the host session on a laptop and cast it to the TV via HDMI, AirPlay, or Chromecast. Switch to TV view — it shows a large QR plus the 6-character fallback code, the current question, and the live leaderboard, all sized for back-of-room visibility.
