Claryoo vs Kahoot!

Kahoot! and Claryoo both get a virtual room answering questions, in very different moods. Kahoot! is game-based: players join with a game PIN at kahoot.it or in the app, answer quiz questions against the clock, and watch a leaderboard and podium. Claryoo is an AI co-host that joins your Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams call: people answer polls and quizzes in the meeting chat, you get a private read on the room, and a summary of what was decided when it ends.

TL;DR

Kahoot! makes game-based quizzes with a leaderboard and podium. Players join with a game PIN, the Kahoot! app or kahoot.it. It offers a workplace product, Kahoot! 360, and apps for Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Free plan available. See kahoot.com/pricing.

Claryoo runs polls, quizzes and volunteer picks that people answer in the meeting chat or on their phones in a room, puts every question from chat and voice on one board, shows you who's engaged and who's gone quiet, and hands you what was decided and who owes what the moment the session ends. Free plan with 2 hours a month; Starter $19, Pro $39. Start free, no card.

Pick Kahoot! when you want competition and energy: quiz games with a leaderboard, team events, classroom review.

Pick Claryoo when the session is a workshop, training, member call or keynote that needs input, a read on who's following, and decisions and follow-ups written up, without turning it into a game.

What each tool does

Kahoot!

A game-based learning platform. You build a kahoot, a set of quiz questions, and host it live. Players join with a PIN and answer on their own device or, with the Zoom and Teams apps, inside the meeting. Points, streaks and a podium make it a game; that's the point and the appeal.

Claryoo

A co-host that joins the call. Describe your session and Claryoo drafts polls and quizzes in order; add slides from a PDF. During the call, press Next and each poll or quiz launches in the meeting chat, where people answer by typing. Quiz results show how many got it right, without a leaderboard. Privately, you see who's with you and who went quiet. When it ends, you get the decisions, follow-ups by name, and the results.

Pick Claryoo when

• A training where knowledge checks should inform what you teach next, not rank people.
• A client workshop where you need everyone's input and the decisions written up after.
• A member call or community session where people should take part without competing.
• A virtual keynote where you want the audience's takeaways the moment you finish.
• A training or workshop in a room, where people join by QR on their phones, tap Got it or Lost me, and you see which slide lost them.
