Review and export

Check each question and explanation, then print the round or export it for game night.

Good pub questions have one clear answer, a memorable hook and a fair difficulty curve. Start with a fact your players half-know, then ask for the detail that separates confident guesses from lucky ones. Review each generated question before game night, because any AI draft needs a human check for accuracy.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions make a good pub quiz round?

Many hosts find rounds of 8 to 10 questions keep players engaged, though the right length depends on how long your night runs. Mixing easy and hard items across the round usually works better than one difficulty level.

How do I write trivia questions that are hard but still fair?

Start with a fact most people have heard of, then ask for one specific detail beyond it. Avoid questions where the only answer comes from an obscure source nobody could reasonably know.

Can I print the questions for a quiz night?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export are included on the Plus plan. The free plan lets you study generated questions in the browser, but exports are a paid feature.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. You can start on the free plan, which includes 5 generations a week, without adding a credit card.
