Sporcle is a trivia website which allows users to take quizzes on a range of subjects using the web or a mobile device. Sporcle began operations as an online trivia website, launching on January 30, 2007, and expanding into the pub quiz business in 2013.
The Sporcle website was started in response to website founder Matt Ramme's desire to learn trivia and his accompanying frustration that there was no existing website suitable for his needs. Users can play and make quizzes on this trivia quiz website, which hosts over one million user-made quizzes that have been played over 4 billion times. According to Ramme, the name of the company is inspired by the words sports and oracle.
The company's headquarters are located in Seattle and the Detroit metro area.
