Online quiz tournaments, from the first recording to the final score.
KHVIP is a production platform for competitive “What? Where? When?” tournaments. It brings players, captains, hosts, editors and organisers into one real-time system built around audio questions, team collaboration and reliable tournament operations.
The product
One platform, three ways to play
The same tournament content can be delivered asynchronously, in a synchronised scheduled slot, or as a live hosted show. The platform adapts its timing, controls and communication model to each format.
A shared time slot
Multiple teams play in sync. A dedicated background worker advances every active session through exactly the same phases.
A human-led show
A host controls slides, questions and timers manually while the team joins through a dedicated real-time player interface.
The challenge
More than a quiz interface
