A live quiz that everyone in the room remembers.
We got tired of quizzes that read like slide decks. So we built the thing we wished existed: AI-drafted questions, a 4-digit PIN, and host controls tight enough to run at an all-hands without wincing.
Why Gumbalup exists.
Two of us taught, one in a high school and one running corporate L&D. Both of us watched the same thing happen in a hundred rooms: someone would open a slide, ask a question, and the silence would sit there for fifteen seconds before one person shrugged an answer.
The existing tools had fixes for pieces of this. One nailed the game-show energy but felt juvenile in a boardroom. Another polished up the polls but priced out teachers. Every tool asked the host to juggle a different app in a different tab.
Gumbalup is one product that works in all three rooms: a 5th-grade review, a 300-person lecture, Monday's all-hands. Same PIN, same AI, same host controls. Free for teachers, flat pricing for teams, no per-seat audits, no surprise line items.
Four rules we won't break, even when customers ask.
Participation beats polish.
A quiz nobody plays is a slide deck with extra steps. We optimize every feature for the answer-rate first. The shine comes after.

GDPR + FERPAWorks in the room it's in.
A 5th-grade review and a 300-person all-hands need the same PIN, not the same UI. We tune the host controls to whichever room you're standing in.
