SANTA MONICA, Calif., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- After a decade of supporting teachers and students around the world, Quizizz is now Wayground. The rebrand reflects the platform's evolution from a quiz tool into a more versatile supplemental learning platform that's supported by AI.
"Over the past ten years, teacher feedback has transformed a simple formative assessment tool into a destination for teachers to browse, bring, or build any instructional resource and quickly deliver it to students," said Ankit Gupta, Founder and CEO. "Our new name reflects that growth and our belief that every student can find their way within the common ground of the classroom."
A Decade of Growth, Led by Teachers
Wayground began in 2015 with a focus on interactive classroom quizzes. It has evolved to include resources, student supports, and reporting for every part of a teacher's lesson. Today, the platform serves educators in over 150 countries and, as of June 2025, 90% of U.S. schools.
AI Where It Counts
Wayground's next chapter includes thoughtful use of AI to enhance, not replace, human instruction.
"We're seeing millions of users engage with AI every week, but it doesn't replace the human connection and critical thinking that make learning happen. We believe AI should work in the background to support the moments that matter most—like when a teacher walks over to a student's desk and says just the right thing to help them move forward," said Gupta.
Rather than isolating students behind screens, AI powers behind-the-scenes tools like translation, difficulty adjustments, and accessibility features such as dyslexia font, read-aloud, and more. AI-powered accommodations let teachers confidently support a wide range of learners in a group setting without slowing down the class or singling anyone out.
"It's a Swiss Army Knife," said Gary Lambert, Director of IT, Communications & Security for Beekmantown CSD, New York. "Every teacher finds something new to do with it. The first time I used the AI, I said 'there's no way it can be that easy' and I emailed my staff."
New Updates for the 2025-2026 Academic Year
As part of the rebrand, Wayground is also announcing several platform updates for the new school year:
