Trivia Hosting Software
ShowVolt is the all-in-one platform built by experienced hosts, for working hosts. Stop rebuilding your game every week. Start showing up ready to run the room.
Sound Familiar?
Every host knows the routine. Patch together three tools, rebuild everything from scratch, cross your fingers before showtime.
Tabs for teams, formulas that break mid-game, manual totals you're calculating while also trying to entertain a room full of people.
Rebuilt fresh every week. Questions, categories, transitions, answer reveals — all maintained by hand, separately from your scores.
Your questions live somewhere else entirely. Copy-paste into the slides. Copy-paste into the spreadsheet. Pray nothing's out of sync by showtime.
The Switch
From 2+ hours of weekly prep to about 20 minutes. Everything your game needs, connected from the start.
Before ShowVolt
With ShowVolt
The Best of Both
The magic of bar trivia isn't the technology — it's the debate at the table, the team name on the answer slip, the groan when the answer is obvious. We keep all of that.
For Your Players
Players write their answers on paper slips, huddle with their team, and debate every question. The analog experience that makes bar trivia what it is.
For You
Your console shows the question, your notes, the scoring panel, and a live preview of the venue screen — all in one place, nothing to juggle.
What's Inside

Card Bank + Game Builder
Questions live in a searchable bank by category, type, and tags. Pull cards into a game, drag to order, mark it ready. Done in minutes.

Live Console
Score every team with a tap. Handles the math, flags unscored teams, and keeps your attention where it belongs — on the room.

Host Script
Write your welcome and rules once. ShowVolt surfaces them at the right moment — so your intro is always polished, even on a rough night.

Multiple Game Formats
Full Family Feud-style games with survey answers, placement scoring, and a Final round — same platform, different night.
How It Works
Import your existing questions or create new ones. Organize by category, tag by theme, and build a library that grows with your shows.
Pull cards into game slots, drag to reorder, and mark ready. Structure, script, and display settings handled automatically.
Console on your laptop. Stage on the venue TV. ShowVolt handles scoring, display, and flow — you handle the room.
The Stage Display
A branded, live-updating display on any screen at the venue. Questions, answers, scores, promos — all controlled from your console.
Fully branded. Your logo, your venue, your background. Players see a professional display. You see your console.
Who It's For
You've been doing this long enough to know what a good show takes. ShowVolt is for people who are already great at hosting and want software that keeps up.
Independent hosts running weekly shows at one or more venues
Small hosting companies with multiple hosts and multiple shows per week
Hosts building a brand who need their presentation to match the quality of their content
Anyone tired of spending Sunday rebuilding the same game they ran last Tuesday
"We've hosted games on paper, on Excel, and on slideshow presentations stitched together the night before. We built ShowVolt because we got tired of the software getting in the way of the show."
