A quiz inside your presentation itself
Kahoot is a gamified quiz tool, ideal for energetic closings or quick reviews. Lectame's quiz feature is didactic and integrated into the lesson flow — not a separate quiz app, but quiz questions that appear at the right moment in the slides. For pure gamification: Kahoot. For a complete lesson with quiz, theory and differentiation: Lectame.
Where Kahoot excels
Kahoot has phenomenal brand recall — ask any student in the Netherlands whether they know "Kahoot" and they'll nod. The competitive atmosphere with music, points and leaderboards works as an energy boost in full classrooms and at events. For standalone quiz moments, Kahoot is hard to beat.
The ecosystem is broad: ready-made quiz packs, integrations with Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom, and a large community library of user-generated content.
Where Lectame excels
- Quiz as part of the lesson. No separate app to launch — the question appears on the right slide, at the right moment.
- Didactics over gamification. Points and feedback are there, but without a competitive leaderboard that discourages slower students.
- AI builds the questions for you. No manual entry per question — Lectame generates quiz questions that match your topic.
- Works both in class and independently. Live mode for the classroom, learning-path mode for home.
- EU servers, no student emails. GDPR-safe without students creating an account.

Frequently asked questions
How does Lectame differ from Kahoot?+
Kahoot is a gamified quiz tool, ideal for energetic closings or quick reviews. Lectame's quiz feature is didactic and integrated into the lesson flow — not a separate quiz app, but quiz questions that appear at the right moment in the slides. For pure gamification: Kahoot. For a complete lesson with quiz, theory and differentiation: Lectame.
Is Lectame gamified like Kahoot?+
Not in the same way. Kahoot uses points, leaderboards and music to create energy. Lectame focuses on didactic integration: the quiz is part of the lesson, not a separate game before or after it. Points and feedback do exist, but are less competitive — deliberately, so as not to lose slower students.
Do students need an app?+
No. Students join via a browser with a session code or QR scan. No Kahoot app, no download, no account. Works on any phone, tablet or laptop with a browser.
Does it work at home for independent practice?+
Yes. Alongside the live classroom mode, Lectame has a learning-path mode in which students work through the presentation (including quiz questions) at their own pace. As a teacher you can see who answered which questions correctly or incorrectly.
Can I show leaderboards?+
For each quiz question you get real-time insight into answers and who got it right. A Kahoot-style competitive leaderboard is deliberately not central — research shows it distracts slower students more than it motivates them. You can, however, activate group work and collaboration.
When is Kahoot a better choice?+
For events, energy-boost moments, or when you want purely standalone quiz moments without the context of a lesson flow around them. Kahoot excels in a festive, competitive atmosphere. For structured teaching where the quiz is part of the lesson, Lectame usually makes more sense.
