Innkeeper Smartquiz
A new smart quiz platform designed using modern software standards to deliver engaging in-house smart quizzes.
Run quiz nights that feel smoother, faster and far more memorable.
Innkeeper Smartquiz is now in open testing, giving players a polished way to join in, giving hosts clearer control of the room, and giving organisers a better way to bring the whole night together. Players can join on iPhone, iPad, Android, or in a web browser, while our testing programme gives hosts direct access to the wider tools they need to run live events.
Player apps available now
Download the player client
Players can install the native app from the App Store or Google Play, or join through the browser when needed. No account is required to play.
Host access
The same iOS and Android app can unlock Host Mode with a Host Mode subscription through the relevant store. During testing, access to the wider host and server tools is arranged directly by us. Contact us to get started.
Purpose-built software for every part of the room
Innkeeper Smartquiz gives players, hosts and organisers the tools they need without forcing the night to feel clunky. From player entry to host control, each part is designed to keep the room moving.
Authoring tools
Create and prepare quizzes in dedicated desktop software built for live events. During open testing, authoring access is supplied directly by us so you can get started with the right setup.
Host server tools
The host server keeps the event running smoothly and keeps every screen in sync. During testing, server tools are provided directly by us and are currently available on Windows.
Host mode
The same iOS and Android app used by players can unlock Host Mode with a Host Mode subscription through the relevant store, giving you mobile control when you need it.
Player clients
Players can join and take part from a web browser or the native iOS and Android app. No account is required to play.
Join on mobile with the native player client
Pick the store that matches your device and install the player app ready for quiz night. A browser option is also available when you want a quick way in.
Player downloads
Download the player app for iPhone, iPad or Android and be ready to join as soon as the host opens the room.
Quiz nights should feel exciting, not awkward
Innkeeper Smartquiz is designed around the moments people actually remember: getting everyone connected quickly, keeping the room engaged, and helping the host stay in control without killing the atmosphere.
Quicker starts
Players join from the mobile app or a browser — no account, no waiting, just scan and play.
Stronger momentum
Keep rounds moving with clear play stages, answer moments and score updates that feel live in the room.
Calmer hosting
Give hosts clearer control over the flow of the event, instead of juggling disconnected tools.
A better overall experience
Turn a quiz into more of a show: more polished for players, more confident for organisers, and more memorable overall.
One flow from planning the quiz to running the room
The platform links quiz preparation, live hosting and player participation so the whole night feels joined up. During testing, the Windows host server and authoring tools are supplied directly by us, while player access is already live across mobile and browser.
Plan
Build your quiz in the Windows authoring tools supplied during testing and shape the rounds, questions and media in one place.
Prepare
Get the Windows host server tools directly from us during testing so your quiz night is ready to run smoothly.
Host
Use the same iOS or Android app as your players and unlock Host Mode with the relevant store subscription when you need mobile control.
Play anywhere
Players join from a web browser or the iOS and Android app. No account needed — just connect and play with the room in sync.
Turn the breaks into part of the show
Innkeeper Smartquiz supports mini-apps that help you keep the room engaged between rounds. Bring in fast bonus moments, catch-up opportunities and side games that feel like part of the quiz night rather than a distraction from it.
During testing, support is already being built with growth in mind from day one. Windows host and authoring releases are available first while the product stabilises, with broader support still firmly in the pipeline.
Mini-app line-up
Greyhound Racing, Slots and Seashells
From robotic greyhound racing to quick catch-up games, mini-apps are designed to keep the atmosphere high and give every team a reason to stay invested.
Easy to add
Add a compatible mini-app package and the authoring software can pick it up automatically, making it simple to bring new experiences into your quiz night.
Slots
A quick catch-up game for the early part of the quiz. Two matching reels award 10 points, three stars give 50 points, three frogs leap a team into first place, and three bombs award a bomb item that can wipe out the fastest-team points on one question of the holder's choice.
Seashells
A take on three-card monte. Follow the pearl under the three seashells and pick correctly to win extra points.
Built for the room
Mini-apps are there to lift the energy, create comeback moments and keep everyone engaged through the natural breaks in the night.
Built for organisers, hosts and players together
Most quiz tools solve only one part of the night. Innkeeper Smartquiz improves the full experience, so every person involved gets a better journey.
For organisers
During open testing, the Windows authoring tools are supplied directly by us so you can start building quiz nights with the right setup and support.
For hosts
Use the same iOS or Android app as your players and unlock Host Mode with a store subscription, while the wider Windows host tools are provided directly by us during testing.
For players
Join from any web browser, iOS or Android device. No account required — just connect, pick a team name and play.
Rich media built in
Images, audio and video help quiz nights feel bigger, more varied and more entertaining without slowing down the flow of the room.
Mini-app moments
Bring in side games like Slots, Seashells and Greyhound Racing to create comeback moments, bonus drama and better between-round entertainment.
Ready to grow
Windows testing releases are available now for the host server and authoring tools, and broader support has been part of the plan from day one as the product stabilises.
One platform for creating, hosting and presenting standout quiz nights
Innkeeper Smartquiz brings together player apps, browser play, mobile host mode, Windows host tools, authoring software and a growing mini-app line-up so quiz nights can feel smoother, livelier and more memorable from start to finish.
