Trivia built for the moment.
Hoot5 is live trivia for people who throw one event — not a subscription they forget to cancel.
Our mission.
We believe anyone should be able to host a polished trivia game in under ten minutes — for a party, a wedding reception, a classroom review, or a team offsite. No annual contract. No player accounts required. Just a link, a room code, and a good time.
Why we exist.
Most trivia tools are built for bars and recurring quiz nights. That means subscriptions, hardware, and a learning curve. We started Hoot5 because we kept hearing the same thing: “I just need trivia for one night.” So we built exactly that — a pay-per-pass model where you buy the days you need and nothing more.
How we work.
- — Ship fast, fix faster.
- — Real human support, every email.
- — No dark patterns, no auto-renew tricks.
- — Privacy by default; collect the minimum.
The team.
We're a small crew split between Toronto and Brooklyn — engineers, designers, and hosts who have run trivia nights ourselves. If you want to say hi, visit our contact page.
