How to create custom quizzes with an AI-powered quiz building platform

There’s a problem in the world of digital learning and assessment: how do you quickly and effectively create custom quizzes to test learning?

On one side, we have simple form builders. They’re quick and easy to use, but they lack essential features users need to do serious evaluation and testing. On the other hand, complex Learning Management Systems (LMS) offer a lot of power, but they are usually cumbersome, overwhelming, and loaded with features you don’t need and don’t want to pay for. Not ideal when you just need to quickly spin up something that’s straightforward and effective. 

We built Knovaa to bridge this divide.

Our goal was to create a quiz builder that is both powerful and straightforward. The result is a dedicated quiz hub that empowers educators, trainers, and businesses to create meaningful assessments without the friction.

What is Knovaa? Intro to the custom quiz platform

Knovaa is a sophisticated quiz-building application, built on highly-scalable databases using Glide. It is designed to allow you to transform your content into fully customized interactive quizzes. Using Knovaa, you can take any piece of text, such as a policy document, lecture notes, or study guide, and use Artificial Intelligence to effectively structure that information into a comprehensive quiz. For those who prefer a hands-on approach, you can also build quizzes manually, tailoring every detail to your exact specifications.

The entire application is structured around private, team-based workspaces. When you log into Knovaa and quickly set up your profile, you either create your own team or get invited to an existing one. Each team functions as a secure, self-contained environment where all quizzes, user data, and results are kept completely separate. A designated administrator manages their team, ensuring content and user access are handled with precision and privacy.

What kinds of quizzes can you create with Knovaa?

By purchasing the Knovaa template, you acquire a fully-functional, pre-built application, saving you the considerable time and cost of developing a comparable tool from scratch. Its flexible framework can be adapted for a multitude of purposes:

  • For Corporate Compliance & Onboarding: A Learning & Development manager can automate and standardize employee onboarding, transforming dense policy manuals and company value documents into engaging, trackable quizzes. This ensures every new hire receives a consistent and measurable introduction to the company.
  • For Sales & Product Training: A Sales Enablement lead can ensure a global sales team has mastered a new product's features. By uploading a product brief and generating a quiz, they can quickly certify their team's knowledge and identify specific areas where more training is needed before a big launch.
  • For Pre-Employment Screening: A hiring manager for a technical role can streamline candidate evaluation by creating a skills assessment quiz. This helps quickly filter for qualified applicants before investing time in interviews, saving significant resources.
  • For Safety & Operational Excellence: A warehouse operations manager can deploy regular assessments for new equipment or updated safety protocols, creating an auditable record of completion and ensuring a safer work environment.
  • For Professional Certification: A scuba diving instructor can test students on safety protocols and marine life identification, issuing a formal, downloadable certificate directly from the app upon successful completion.
  • For Educational Support:  A private tutor can provide a professional platform for weekly tests, using the AI to quickly generate practice questions from study materials to prepare students for exams.

Quizzes significantly increase learning and retention. A recent study showed that just the presence of quizzes in a curriculum improves academic performance in a course. The ability to create custom quizzes can help businesses have safer and more effective employees.

Knovaa provides a foundation for creating whatever types of assessments you and your organization need most. From enterprise teams to small businesses to people running independent ventures, quizzes can be adapted to give you the information you need. It is a tool designed not just to test knowledge, but to build it with transparency and collaboration.

How Knovaa allows you to create custom quizzes with AI

We designed Knovaa with a feature set focused on efficiency, control, and actionable insights.

AI-Assisted Quiz Generation

The centerpiece of Knovaa is its ability to slash quiz creation time by using AI to generate tailored quiz questions and formats based on your existing materials. 

First, you provide your content by typing, speaking, or uploading a document into the app. The AI doesn't just extract text; it thoroughly analyzes the material to generate relevant questions and corresponding answers, intelligently selecting the appropriate question format for each.

You can then review all the AI-generated questions and answers and make any changes manually. The AI gives you a jump start, reducing the time you need to spend crafting your quizzes and tests, but you retain full control of the final product.

Under the Hood: This is powered by a webhook that integrates the best AI models for your use case. That AI is instructed using a meticulously crafted system prompt. This prompt tells the AI precisely how to structure the output, ensuring it correctly populates all necessary fields, from the question type down to the individual options for multiple-choice questions.

Dedicated Team Workspaces

Security and organization are essential. Knovaa’s multi-tenant design ensures that your team’s data is yours alone, protected by row ownership in our database. This structure is perfect for managing distinct groups, such as different corporate departments, client projects, or individual classroom cohorts, all from a single, sophisticated interface.

A Diverse Variety of Question Types

Knovaa supports a wide array of formats to create more effective assessments:

  • Multiple-Choice
  • Select-All-That-Apply
  • True or False
  • Numerical Answer
  • Fill-in-the-Blanks
  • Short & Long-Form Answers

For open-ended questions, Knovaa features an AI-powered evaluator that can grade subjective answers, providing a level of automation typically found only in high-end enterprise systems. Like with the initial quiz-generation feature, your assessors reserve the ability to review and adjust those evaluations as needed.

Granular Member Roles & Rights

You have complete control over what each member of your team can see and do. The app’s built-in access rights system allows you to create custom roles with specific permissions. For example, you can create a "Student" role that can only take quizzes, while a "Teaching Assistant" role might be granted rights to create quizzes but not view team-wide analytics. This ensures every user interacts with the app in exactly the way you intend.

Insightful Analytics & Reporting

Data is only useful when you can understand it. Knovaa includes a clean, intuitive dashboard where administrators can view quiz results across the entire team. Track performance data for each user and quiz to identify knowledge gaps and areas where learners may need additional support. Individual users can also review their own attempts, comparing their answers to the correct ones to facilitate learning.

Downloadable Certificates

For additional motivation and formal recognition, you can add certificates for passed quizzes. For every completed attempt, users can instantly download a professional certificate. This certificate includes all relevant details of their achievement, providing a tangible reward for their efforts.

A Scalable and Secure Foundation

Our choice to build Knovaa using Glide Big Tables was a deliberate technical decision. This foundation ensures the application is not only fast and responsive today but can also seamlessly scale to handle a massive number of users, quizzes, and teams without a drop in performance.
