Live Quizzes in Slack

Turn any channel into a game show. One command posts timed questions with answer buttons — your team plays right inside Slack, with live countdowns, speed scoring, and a leaderboard.

Install, then paste the command in any channel to try our Flags of the World demo.

Whole channel plays

Questions post with answer buttons — everyone taps, no accounts, no app switching.

Live countdowns

The question timer ticks in the message, with a per-second finish and an answered counter.

Scores & leaderboards

Speed-based scoring, per-question results with vote bars, and a final podium.

Threads keep it tidy

Results, your private verdict, and the banter live in each question's thread.

How it works

  1. Start a game: type /playquiz CODE in any channel — the 6-letter code from any of your quizzes on playquiznow.com (or BIINBQ for the demo).
  2. Everyone plays: questions post one at a time with buttons; faster correct answers score more. You get an instant private receipt of your pick, and a correct/incorrect verdict with points when the timer ends.
  3. Results in threads: vote bars, the leaderboard, and a next-question countdown land in each question's thread — the channel stays a clean feed of questions. /playquiz stop ends a game early.

Good to know

  • Works with multiple-choice questions, including images (PNG/JPG).
  • Up to 25 questions per game, one game per channel at a time.
  • Players never need PlayQuizNow accounts — Slack is their identity.
  • Create your own quiz (or generate one with AI) and use its code in Slack.
