Introducing Personal Notes and Tutorial
We are excited to announce a new feature that makes it even easier to organize your learning and get the most out of QuizAlto: Personal Notes.
Your Private Knowledge Base
Every user now has a “Personal notes” course created automatically upon signup. Think of it as your own private knowledge base. You can:
- Add as many chapters as you like to organize your thoughts.
- Use markdown to format your notes with headers, lists, and links.
- Keep your learning materials and study notes in one central, private place.
Getting Started with the Tutorial
To help you hit the ground running, your Personal Notes course comes with a “Tutorial” chapter. This chapter provides a short, easy-to-follow series of tasks to guide you through the platform’s core features, such as:
Control Chapter Count in AI Course Generation
You can now specify exactly how many chapters you want in your AI-generated courses — from 1 to 12.
Previously, AI courses always generated 12 chapters (or 1 for terse guidance). Now you have full control:
- Slide to choose — A new chapter count slider lets you pick between 1 and 12 chapters.
- Terse stays terse — Terse guidance mode still produces a single chapter; the slider is fixed at 1.
- Set your default — If you don’t set a value, the course defaults to 12 chapters.
We’ve also improved how the system handles Gemini API rate limits. If the rate limit is hit during generation, the job fails immediately with a clear error message, and any partial content you’ve already generated is saved so you can review it.

Organisation Categories and Editor Roles
We are excited to announce the release of Organisation Categories and the Editor Role for organisations!
Organisations can now create private categories that are only visible to their members. This will in the near future allow you to organise your content in a way that makes sense for your team.
Editor Role
Organisation administrators can now grant the Editor privilege to any organisation member. Editors can create and manage private categories without needing full administrator permissions.
Introducing AI Exam Generation
We are excited to announce the launch of our new AI Exam Generation feature!
Building on the success of our AI Quiz and Course generation, you can now create full exam banks using artificial intelligence.
What’s the Difference?
While AI Quizzes generate multiple-choice questions, AI Exam Generation creates open-ended text questions. This is perfect for simulating real-world certification exams where you need to provide detailed written answers.
How it Works
- Go to the new AI Exam Creation page.
- Enter your desired topic (e.g., “Kubernetes Security” or “Financial Accounting”).
- Select a guidance type if you’re preparing for a specific certification.
- Click Create Exam and wait for the AI to build your exam bank.
Once generated, you can take the exam just like any other, and our AI-powered marking system will evaluate your written answers.
Introducing Exam Statistics
We are excited to announce that you can now track your progress on exams with our new Exam Statistics feature!
Just like with quizzes, you can now view detailed statistics for your exam attempts, including:
- Total exams started, submitted, and abandoned.
- Average, minimum, and maximum scores.
- Accuracy metrics (correct, incorrect, and unanswered questions).
- Progress trends over time (7, 30, 90, and 365 days).
The statistics dashboard has been updated to show your exam performance right at the top, followed by your quiz statistics. This makes it easier than ever to see how you’re doing across all your learning activities in QuizAlto.
Announcing Exam Browsing and Search
We are excited to announce that exams are now fully integrated into the Quizalto browsing and search experience!
You can now find exams alongside your favorite courses and quizzes. Whether you are browsing through categories or using our powerful search bar, exams will now appear in your results, making it easier than ever to test your knowledge and prepare for certifications.
What’s New?
- Integrated Browsing: Navigate through categories to find exams dedicated to specific topics.
- Enhanced Search: Search results now include a dedicated section for exams.
- Consistent Experience: Exams follow the same premium access model as our courses and quizzes.

Build your own Education!
We’re excited to announce that you can now create your own custom courses on our platform. This new feature allows you to tailor your learning experience to your specific needs.
At the heart of Quizalto are sophisticated generative AI agents, leveraging state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs) fine-tuned for educational content. This allows us to generate accurate, relevant, and high-quality course material and quizzes from a simple topic prompt.
Our system analyzes the input topic, breaks it down into logical sub-topics, and generates structured educational content, including explanations and examples. You can choose your topics and guidance type to create a ’terse’ course, which is straight to the point, or a multi-chapter course on any topic. We also provide guidance for AWS related topics. For example, you can check out our 10-chapter course on Amazon Athena, which includes examples and is a well-structured guide to learning the service.

Introducing quizalto Courses
For some time, quizalto has served as a platform for testing and reinforcing knowledge. We are pleased to announce a significant expansion of our capabilities with the introduction of quizalto Courses.
This update moves beyond knowledge assessment to provide structured learning paths. Our aim is to offer a more comprehensive educational experience, allowing users to build foundational knowledge before testing their understanding, all within the same environment.
To begin, we are releasing seven free courses from our Cloud Concepts category. These are designed to provide a solid foundation for anyone new to the cloud, or for those looking to formalize their knowledge.
Clearer Paths to Learning: Now with Category Descriptions
Navigating the vast world of AWS can be challenging, especially when you’re just starting out. To make your learning journey smoother and more intuitive, we’ve rolled out a simple but powerful update: category descriptions!
What’s New?
Based on your feedback, we’ve added short, clear descriptions to every AWS quiz category and subcategory on QuizAlto. If you’ve ever wondered what “Amazon VPC” is for or how “AWS IAM” differs from other services, you’ll now see a concise explanation right next to the category name.
Quizalto News Now on YouTube!
We’re excited to share a new way to keep up with the latest from Quizalto! Our news updates are now also available as videos on our YouTube channel.
Each video will summarize the key announcements and updates, making it easier for you to stay informed. Whether you’re on the go or prefer watching to reading, we’ve got you covered.

Introducing the New QuizAlto News Section
Explore the site
I have implemented a change where the content of the site is now mostly available to browse without even signing up. This is so that people who may consider signing up can do so with a higher degree of transparency as to whay they are signing up for.
Once signed up, you get access to the free quizzes, as described in our plans (you have to be signed up to view the plans currently, but I’ll be working on changing that, again for transparency’s sake).
Generative AI Quizzes
I’m super excited to share a major update I’ve just launched on QuizAlto! My goal has always been to make learning AWS skills as effective and accessible as possible. And now, I’m taking personalized learning to a whole new level.
I’ve rolled out the ability to generate your own custom AWS quizzes using Generative AI! This means you can now easily create a tailored quiz to target your specific knowledge gaps, dive deep into any niche topic, or just make learning fun by challenging yourself in a new way.

- Performance: Monitor your average, minimum, and maximum scores.
- Accuracy: See your total correct, incorrect, and unanswered questions.
