Start with the content.
Not an empty database.
Building a successful trivia product can require thousands or even hundreds of thousands of questions. Writing, checking, categorising and maintaining that content internally is a substantial editorial task.
Licensing an established quiz database allows your development and publishing teams to start with structured content and focus on the product around it.

More than question and answer
Useful data around
every question.
A professional quiz database needs structure. We can supply content with the metadata required to organise, filter and publish questions effectively.
01 / CATEGORIES
Category & subcategory
Questions are organised into categories and increasingly detailed subcategories, allowing your product to create subject-specific quizzes and content selections.
02 / FORMAT
Question type
Multiple choice, question-and-answer, true or false, correct order, Who Am I and other formats can be supplied according to the available content and project brief.
03 / DIFFICULTY
Difficulty options
Where your product needs difficulty levels, we can discuss supplying graded content. Projects that do not require additional grading can also be structured more economically.
04 / TERRITORY
Audience & market
Select internationally relevant content or build a collection around specific countries, territories and audiences.
05 / VOLUME
Content at scale
Licence the volume your product requires, from focused category selections through to substantial question libraries for high-usage products.
06 / REFRESH
Room to grow
A deep source database makes it easier to expand or refresh your product without immediately exhausting the available question pool.
Professional content
Downloadable doesn't
mean unverified.
A trivia database is only useful if players can trust the questions and answers. Our commercial database is professionally written and editorially reviewed rather than being built from uncontrolled user-submitted questions.
That matters particularly for publishers, broadcasters and commercial games where factual errors can damage the user experience and create unnecessary editorial work.

Trivia database download FAQs
Common questions.
Can I download the trivia database?
Yes. Licensed content can be supplied as a database download in an
agreed format such as Excel, CSV, JSON or XML. The exact structure
is agreed according to your project requirements.
How many trivia questions are available?
The Question Co has a database of more than 500,000 text questions,
alongside a substantial image-question library. Your licence can be
built around the subjects and volume required by your product.
Can I get the trivia database in CSV?
Yes. CSV is one of the standard formats we can use for database
delivery and is suitable for a wide range of development and
publishing workflows.
Can you deliver trivia questions in JSON or XML?
Yes. JSON and XML delivery can be discussed with your development
team. We can also work with an agreed field structure and discuss
API integration where required.
Is the trivia database free?
The commercial database is licensed rather than offered as a free
public database. You can download a free sample to review the
quality and structure of the questions before discussing a licence.
Can I choose which trivia categories I download?
Yes. Content can be selected around the categories, subcategories,
formats, audience and volume required for your project rather than
requiring you to take an unrestricted database dump.
Can developers review a sample first?
Yes. Our free sample provides 100 questions in Excel so your
editorial and development teams can review the question content
and basic data structure before licensing a larger database.
