Trivia nights, ready to run

A board is the whole night: categories, questions, answers, GIFs and song cues, written by a host who has run it. Put it on a TV, everyone joins from their phones, and the app keeps score. Free boards are for a kitchen table; bar nights are $14.99. A board is yours to run at any venue, as many nights as you like, and the questions stay hidden until you do.

What you need

A TV or projector with a browser, a laptop or phone for yourself, and one phone per team. Nothing to install, and no accounts for the players.
