Happier teams get more done

It's one of the better-studied ideas in workplace research. People do their best work when they feel connected to the people around them, and TriviaStack gives a team a few minutes together, a few times a week.

The coffee-break study

A Bank of America call centre put every team on the same break. Call handling time fell by 8%, and by more than 20% for the weakest teams.

MIT researchers had found that the best predictor of a team's productivity was how much its members talked to each other outside formal meetings. The manager acted on it by changing nothing but the break schedule.

Pentland, Harvard Business Review, 2012

How the break schedule changed

Before: breaks are staggered so the phones stay covered, and people rarely overlap.

  • Staff made about 13% more sales in the weeks they were happy

    Researchers followed around 1,800 BT call-centre workers for six months, and used the weather to check that the happiness came first.

    Bellet, De Neve & Ward, Management Science, 2024
  • The most engaged teams are 23% more profitable than the least

    Gallup's meta-analysis of 183,806 teams across 53 industries, comparing the top quarter for engagement with the bottom quarter.

    Gallup Q12 meta-analysis, 2024
  • Taking part has to be a choice

    In a field experiment, a workplace game lifted how salespeople felt about work, but only among those who opted in. That's why every TriviaStack game is optional.

    Mollick & Rothbard, Wharton

Your conversations stay yours

TriviaStack asks Slack for what it needs to run a game, and nothing that would let it read your team's chat. Here's everything it asks for when you install, in plain English.

Deleted when you ask
Email privacy@triviastack.com and your workspace's data is deleted within 30 days.

Questions teams ask before installing

Can't see yours? Email support@triviastack.com and you'll hear back from the person who built it.

Is TriviaStack free?

Yes. Your whole workspace can play, with no player cap, no per-seat pricing and no trial clock. If that ever changes, workspaces already using TriviaStack keep what they have.

Where do the questions come from?

Every question is hand-picked and fact-checked before it's published. Custom games draw on a library across ten categories, and the Daily Stack adds ten new questions each morning, written from current news.

Can we choose the topics and difficulty?

Yes. Pick any of the ten categories, set the difficulty to easy, medium, hard or a mix, and choose anywhere from 3 to 20 questions. Every channel can play the trivia it wants.

Does it work across time zones?

Yes. A game stays open while people play, so teammates in Sydney and New York can play the same game hours apart. Schedules run in whichever time zone you choose.

Do my teammates need to create accounts?

No. Anyone in your Slack workspace can play straight away. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing for each person to install.

How often will TriviaStack post in my channels?

Only when you ask it to. A game starts when someone runs /trivia or when a schedule you set comes around. You choose the channel, the days and the time.

What data does TriviaStack access?

Only what it needs to run games: workspace, channel and player identifiers. It has no permission to read message history, so it can't see your conversations. It only receives messages sent to the bot. Full details are in the privacy policy.

Your first game is a minute away

Add TriviaStack, type /trivia in any channel and you're playing before your next meeting.
