Hey Product Hunt, we’re excited to be launching Trivia today to you folks! 🤩 First off, thank you @kevin for hunting Trivia for Slack! Quick context: At Springworks (our company), we moved to WFH from mid-March and then announced our remote-first policy on May 6th. We’ve been since optimizing our home offices and our Slack workspace for productivity and testing lots of team-building activities. 👊 We saw lots of traction with Quizzes, but they required fixing up a timeslot, downloading a separate app and conducting the quiz over a Zoom call. 🤨 That’s when we decided to build a Slack app. Introducing Trivia! 🚀 With Trivia's suite of quizzes, you can bring Social & Fun back to your workspace (right inside Slack) even while working remotely. Trivia quizzes are fun, easy to launch, and provide a quick 5-minute break to your workday. And they're real-time, meaning the team comes together to play! That's the point. 😇 MCQs - multiple choice questions with 4 answers each across topics like science, tech, business, movies, entertainment, and even Maths and Grammar. Look out for the GoT, The Office and Harry Potter quizzes as well. 😍 Seamless - play with your team anytime, anywhere right on top of Slack Multiple game types (coming soon) - for variety Leaderboards (coming soon)- track results real-time along with final podium standings showcased at the end. 👍🏻 Check out the video above for a walkthrough of how it works (watch at 2x speed) Try it out. It’s free for the first 10 quizzes and 7 days trial included. 😊 Post that especially for the PH community, we’re doing a 10% off for the first 100 PH users on any of our plans for as long as you wish to use Trivia. Use code: TRIVIAONPH10 🙏🏻 springworks.in/trivia There are lots of features that will be coming in the next versions. Look forward to hearing from you on what features you’d like to see next - we may already have many of them on our roadmap! 🤩 PS: Trivia for MS Teams is coming soon too!

We’re excited to launch a brand new game type along with some handy features today! 🌟 (Un)Popular Opinions - a brand new game type - a collection of the most debatable opinions to vote for. Do you think pineapples belong on pizzas? Now you and your team can vote for it. Let’s raise the stakes! 🔥 Custom quizzes: For the PRO plan, we have now rolled out the feature to create custom quizzes for a more personalized experience. Next time you celebrate a birthday, you can create a special quiz for that occasion! 🎁 Scheduler: Schedule Trivia quizzes at particular times of the day regularly. You and your team will never miss a quick, fun and relaxing break! 🎉 It’s been an absolute delight to see hundreds of Trivia quizzes being taken everyday and we can’t wait to release what’s next! Try out Trivia right away for free for 7 days and tell us what you’d like to see next! springworks.in/trivia

Always fun to see products from Springworks and what Kartik and team cook in their labs :)
Abhash Kumar

This is an amazing addition to our Slack workspace. We were doing weekend quizzes in smaller groups outside of work during the lockdown. But this brings together our entire team, including interns and freelancers for some fun together. I hope this grows bigger with more features - especially choosing difficulty levels, leaderboards, image based quizzes etc. Best wishes, Abhash and team.
Abhash Kumar
@_anuragdwivedi Yes, something that works right inside Slack is so much better. Let's see your feature request list: Choosing difficulty levels - coming in v2 leaderboards - coming in v2 image based quizzes - might take longer, v3 for sure Some of the game types you can look forward to - (Un)Popular opinions, Anagrams, This or That? ++ more...

Trivia has turned around the way we take breaks at Springworks. It's simply just a terrific way to have fun every now and then. It reminds me of the days when my teammates and I would gather around the foosball table after lunch and play a few rounds (very competitive rounds of foosball). It's brought back that old office banter - the way we used to count winning streaks and wait for the next match to just get back our rep. Trivia has brought that excitement, that sense of being together back and it's just going to get better with new game types coming up in the following weeks.
Naman Sarawagi
It’s been terrific to see how Trivia has brought our team together every now and then. The quizzes are a treat when you’ve got a pile of work and you need to pump those creative juices. Our team couldn’t be more excited to hear about the new game types coming up.
Abhash Kumar
@namansr Thanks, Naman! Stoked to hear that. And thanks for helping us with loads of feedback. Yes, lots of updates coming to v2 and of course as a beta supporter your team will have first access to those. 😇👊
Benoit Vatere
We’ve been trying Trivia ever since Kartik gave us early access to check out its features. Over the past few weeks, my team must have played over a hundred quizzes and it’s been a total blast. We’re pumped up about the new game types coming up!
Kartik Mandaville
@bvatere thank you for the shout out and the support!
Sourabh Bagrecha
Wow... such a great product😍, beautifully designed. Employee engagement for remote teams was just an abstract(before Trivia).
Yulia Aslamova
The product looks interesting and bring absolutely different experience for remoters (hehe, I mean for everybody now!)
Abhash Kumar
@yulia_aslamova1 hehe...absolutely. You must be having lots of fun seeing everyone embracing the 'new Remote normal'.
Michael Jones
Remote team building is a challenge and even though we did see it coming, we didn't know it was coming so soon. It's going to be products like Trivia that are going to be the new face of team engagement. The way we work is changing and Trivia is shaping a new way to have fun at work.
Kartik Mandaville
@mjonesone thank you! Excited to launch the next set of features.
Hari Krishnan
Trivia was one of the best thing that happened to our slack workspace !
Swaroop Hegde
SpringWorks has been leading the way for WFH and this tool solves the need to keep your team motivated. Unlike inventing something new which would create friction, trivia is a concept everyone is used to and replicates the "office banter" for remote.
Abhash Kumar
@swarooph Thanks, Swaroop. You're too kind. Hope you folks are having a lot of fun and doing loads of banter using Trivia.

We have never been a remote company. Moving to remote, my concern has always been how not make work directive. Quizzes are a great way to break barriers between team, and Trivia cuts right to the chase. Our 5 pm coffee break starts with Trivia.
Abhash Kumar
@pansari_a Awesome. Thanks for all the support during the beta and for all your feedback too 🙏🏻
Vivek Khandelwal
Planning to use this on our all hands today. We have been using this in our team channel and we LOVEDDD it. Crazy fun. Must try. Almost brainless.
Abhash Kumar
@vivekk That's great, Vivek! Haha...brainless is right. Do try out the Maths worded problems - that should be *slightly* "challenging. And fun too!
Abhilash Jain
Super cool, adding it to my workspace :)
Abhash Kumar
@findabhilash Awesome, Abhilash! Let me 🙌know how your team found it

Our design team has been using Trivia for almost a month now and we've absolutely loved it! It’s a great way to do team bonding when we’re all remote. Kartik has also reached out to me and told me about his newer features he will be adding soon. Can’t wait to see what he has planned! 😊
