Writing pub trivia rounds without starting from scratch

Hosting quiz night gets easier with a pub trivia maker that starts from material you already have. Instead of hunting through encyclopedias for a fresh set of questions each week, you can upload the notes or slides for a theme and build a round from them.

  • Generate multiple-choice, true/false and open questions from your own notes
  • Read explanations for each answer to resolve disputes quickly
  • Edit questions before the night to tighten wording and difficulty
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on the Plus plan for printing or sharing
Example pub trivia questions for a quiz night
Which gas makes up about 78% of Earth's atmosphere?Nitrogen. It is the most abundant gas in the air we breathe, far ahead of oxygen.
What is the hardest naturally occurring substance?Diamond. Its carbon atoms form a rigid crystal lattice, which gives it a Mohs hardness of 10.
Which country has the most time zones, counting its overseas territories?France. Its overseas territories spread its time zones across the globe.
How many players from one team are on the field in a standard soccer match?11, including the goalkeeper, so each side fields one more than the squad's bench size suggests.
What is the name of the bell inside the Elizabeth Tower in London?Big Ben. The name refers to the bell, not the tower, which was renamed Elizabeth Tower in 2012.

Questions from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX files, slides, plain-text notes or photos of pages, and get questions drawn from that content.

Multiple formats

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, and mix them within one round to keep teams guessing.

Explanations for every answer

Each question includes a short explanation, so you can settle disputes at the table and check accuracy before the night.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a document, slide deck or set of notes on the topics you want in your rounds.

Pick the question types

Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and generate a set for each round.

Review and run the night

Edit anything that feels off, then use your questions on the night or export them on a paid plan.

Good rounds balance difficulty and topic. Mix easy warm-ups with a few harder items, and spread questions across history, science, geography and pop culture so every table has a chance to score. Review each generated question before the night to confirm the wording has one clear correct answer.

Keep your question bank organized by theme so you can reuse rounds, swap in new material, and build a fresh set when regulars start remembering the answers.
