FAQ

Is Trivana a Gimkit alternative?

Yes, particularly for audiences outside K–12. Trivana is a link-first hosted trivia builder for creators, teams, brands, and events — share by link, no class setup.

What is the main difference from Gimkit?

Gimkit's game modes are designed around classroom mechanics — student teams, in-game currency, and kit assignments. Trivana focuses on on-screen hosted delivery and creator distribution by link. Standard Host moments are reusable; prepared outcome reactions require an eligible Smart Host-ready pack.

Can Gimkit and Trivana both work for trivia nights?

Both can. Trivana is stronger when you want a single link for Discord, Slack, or a group chat, on-screen questions, and automatic scoring. Gimkit remains strong for classroom-native game modes.

Can I generate a game from a document?

Yes. Upload a supported document, paste a supported URL, or type a topic, then review the generated questions and answers before publishing. Voice scripts are not promised for every game.

Is Trivana free?

Playing is free; without a plan, short games are 50 coins each (a new account starts with 500 coins), with reusable host moments. Paid plans add longer games and creator tools; prepared reactions appear only when a published pack is explicitly Smart Host-ready.

Does Trivana have game modes like Gimkit?

Trivana's core mode is hosted multiple-choice trivia with on-screen questions, reusable host moments, and optional Smart Host-ready prepared reactions. If classroom-specific modes are the main requirement, Gimkit may still be a closer fit.
