Show HN: I built a tool that generates quizzes from documents using LLMs
6 comments
Cool idea! I'm wondering how did you come up with such an idea?
Very cool! I was just looking for something like this last night to generate quizzes for my middle- and grade-school sure kids as supplement to their normal work. So far I’ve settled on NotebookLM.
One thing I’d love to see is some examples of what the generated quizzes look like/work like before I upload something. Right now, I have no idea what I’ll get before uploading something. Some examples or demos on the front page would be great.

That's a great suggestion! thanks for having a look. I just updated the landing page with some examples :D
Nice, great screenshots, thx!

Being a backend engineer, I have always struggled to finish my side projects due to my awful frontend skills. Now, with the progress of AI coding tools, I had no more excuses. 100% of the frontend, landing page and even the logo was made using a combination of Cursor, ChatGPT and Claude, but it's always been under my supervision and never blindly accepted the proposed changes. The backend and infra was handled by myself.
The tool itself is pretty straightforward: upload any PDF/DOC, get quiz questions generated by an LLM, export them if you want, and come back to your previous quizzes anytime. I got this idea when I was studying from a pdf for my UK citizenship. I know there are similar tools around, but it was a good opportunity for me to build something end to end!
I'd love to know what you think or what you might use this for. Any feedback is super appreciated!
