Source note. I read Wayground's homepage in October 2026. Its address quizizz.com redirects to wayground.com, and the page header says Quizizz is now Wayground. I could not find a price for teachers on the pages I read, so I quote none.
The name change
Quizizz is now Wayground. Visiting quizizz.com took me to wayground.com, the banner on the homepage says "Quizizz is now Wayground", and its footer credits Quizizz Inc. doing business as Wayground. Press coverage I found dated the new name to 2025, with the old name fading out of the product through that year. Search engines and many teachers still say Quizizz, which is why this page uses both names.
What Wayground says it does
The homepage describes AI-powered assessments, presentations, video and flashcards. A teacher can generate a full activity from a topic, document, standard or upload. Students take an assessment run as a competitive game or a serious exam, do auto-graded homework, work through flashcards, or watch video with comprehension checks. A presentation can be run live with the class or sent to an absent student to do on their own. It lists common assessments rolled up by teacher, school and standard, and a way to translate activities. A "Sign up free" button is offered to individual teachers, and schools request a quote. Students join using a code.
What ClassSense does differently
The two products overlap more than most on this site: both take your material, generate questions, and have students answer them. The difference is where the emphasis sits.
- Wayground is built around activities and delivery formats: a game on Friday, a homework set, a video check, a live presentation.
- ClassSense is built around skills. Each upload becomes up to 10 skill packs, and the product tracks mastery per student per skill (5 answers at about 85%, then Mastered, with a later quick check). The dashboard answers "who needs me?" rather than "how did that quiz go?"
ClassSense does have games: Never Look Down, Arena Brawl, Dig It Up and Escape Lab, plus four formats a student can choose. The games sit on top of the skills. See review games for more.
Where Wayground is the better choice
- Live delivery. Running a quiz as a whole-class competitive game, with everyone in the room at once, is its home ground. ClassSense does not run live video and is not designed for a synchronized live game.
- Formats. Flashcards, video checks and presentations are all on the homepage. ClassSense has no flashcard feature. Task Cards, a printable .docx, are the nearest thing.
- Connections. The homepage mentions working with your LMS, rostering and SSO. ClassSense has none of that today.
- Common assessments. Comparing classrooms on the same test by standard is something it advertises, and we do not offer a district-level view.
- Free to start. It offers teacher sign-up for free. ClassSense is free for 30 days.
Where ClassSense is the better fit
When what you want is not another quiz but an answer to "who has not got this skill yet, and what is their misconception?" Wrong choices in ClassSense items point at a named misconception, so the pattern of misses says something. Compare this with the Kahoot comparison, which has the same live-game question.
Who should not switch
Teachers whose students already love the Friday game, whose school pays for Wayground, or who need live whole-class sessions. Keep it. If you want to test the mastery side, one unit in ClassSense alongside it is a low-risk way to see whether the skill view adds something your quiz scores do not.
Common questions
Is Quizizz the same as Wayground?
Yes. Quizizz is now Wayground. As of October 2026, quizizz.com redirects to wayground.com and its homepage says so.
Does ClassSense have flashcards?
No. There is no flashcard feature or flip-card study mode. Task Cards, a printable .docx, are the closest thing.
Can ClassSense run a live game with my whole class?
ClassSense has four games students play, but it does not run live video and is not built for a synchronized live game.
Does Wayground cost money?
Its homepage offers free sign-up for teachers and quotes for schools. I did not see a price, so check their site.
