Virtual Trivia for Remote Teams

Virtual Trivia That Feels Live Over Zoom

Live game-show trivia for distributed teams. Buzzers, scoring and leaderboards over Zoom, Meet or Teams. Free to start.

Remote teams deserve more than a virtual escape room

Most "virtual team building" activities for remote teams are awkward - a webcam grid of muted teammates trying to enjoy a guided art lesson or a virtual escape room a host charged $300 to facilitate. The good news: live trivia translates to the remote setting better than almost any other format.

Quizado is the platform remote teams use to run live trivia events over Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams. The host shares their screen with the game board. Players join from their phone or laptop with a short link. Buzzers, scoring, leaderboards and team rivalries work exactly the same as they do in person.

Use it for Friday afternoon energizers, all-hands warm-ups, new-hire welcomes, monthly team building, sales kickoffs or quarterly virtual offsites. Setup is 30 minutes. Run-time is whatever fits your meeting agenda - 15 minutes for a quick energizer, 60 minutes for a deeper team event.

Features

What you get

Built for hosts and venues who need to look professional from day one.

Works on Zoom, Meet and Teams

Share your screen with the trivia board on any video conferencing tool. Players join from their own phone or laptop with a short link in the chat.

The first buzz takes the question

The host console locks the first buzz it receives and shows that team to the whole call. A teammate on a very slow connection can be at a disadvantage, because their buzz arrives later.

Time-zone-friendly scheduling

Pick an overlap hour that covers as many teammates as possible. Quizado runs the same live experience whether you have 5 attendees or 500, on any video conferencing tool.

AI builds the rounds

Type a theme - inside jokes, your industry, the year in review - and AI generates a complete Bar Trivia round. Edit anything, then run. AI credits come with the paid plans.

Real team formation

Players form teams by picking a name and emoji. Teams compete on the same leaderboard. Hybrid teams with both in-person and remote players work seamlessly.

No app downloads

Players just click a link in the meeting chat. Quizado loads in their browser. No software install, no permissions, no account creation - matters more in corporate environments where IT controls software.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it really work over Zoom?+

Yes. The host shares their screen with the game board (the same one you would project at an in-person event), and players join from their own device using a short link in the meeting chat. Buzzers, scoring and team formation all work the same as in person. We have tested it with teams of 5 and teams of 500.

What about teammates with slow internet?+

The host console locks the first buzz it receives. A teammate on a slow connection sends their buzz later, so they can be at a disadvantage in a buzzer round. If your team has very mixed connections, run rounds where every team answers instead of racing to buzz.

How is this different from a Kahoot game over Zoom?+

Kahoot is a classroom multiple-choice quiz tool. Virtual trivia with Quizado is a live game-show experience - phone buzzers, five round types (six with Music Bingo on Hospitality Group), AI question generation, big-screen leaderboards, and your own logo from Trivia Pro. Different category of product entirely.

Can we play with people in multiple time zones?+

For the live game-show experience, yes - but you need everyone in the same call at the same time. Pick an overlap hour that covers most of your team. For people who genuinely cannot attend, record the session and share highlights afterwards.

Do remote players need to install anything?+

No. Remote players click the join link in chat and the game loads in their phone or laptop browser. No app, no account, no permissions. Important for corporate environments where IT restricts software installs.

Can my team host this themselves or do we need a facilitator?+

You can host it yourselves. Quizado is designed so any team member can host with no rehearsal. The AI generates the questions, the software handles scoring and timing, and the host just advances slides. Many remote teams rotate hosting duties as part of the recurring event.
