Why we created Kwizie

Imagine sitting through hours of video, only to realize that you've learnt very little. This is the frustrating reality for many learners today [1, 3]. We have long known that passive video consumption fails to effectively engage and facilitate meaningful learning experiences for decades [2, 4]. Moreover, manual creation of tests and exams is time-consuming and expensive for educators, while collecting meaningful statistics on engagement and learning is a daunting task [4].

YouTube is the No 1 learning resource for young people today, yet active learning from video content is still a very manual, slow and difficult process for educators and learners [5, 6].

We envision a world where active gamified learning from the best video content becomes the new norm.

Our mission at Kwizie is to be the world's best AI co-pilot to transform passive video consumption into multiplayer quiz games.

We created Kwizie because we believe the learning process should motivate the learner to engage with the latest content, be data-driven and outcome orientated with regular bite-sized formative assessments. Our aim to be the go-to platform to turn videos into fun multiplayer interactions for your audience in order to (1) boost engagement, (2) make video-based learning data-driven, and (3) optimize your delivery faster than ever before.

"What drives us is our deep passion for unleashing curiosity in everyone through fun active and social learning with great content from leading experts." - Chris Petrie CEO, Co-Founder

What we believe:

We fundamentally believe learning is essential in all aspects of our modern lives and a fundamental force for change. We also believe the more you understand about yourself and the world around you, the more you can live a happy life full of possibilities. At Kwizie, this is why we 🤍 learning!

Our approach to AI:

If the computer was considered by Steve Jobs as a "bicycle for the mind," then we believe the recent advances in AI to be the next significant evolutionary leap in digital technologies. In this light, we think of AI as a co-pilot assistant that helps us to accelerate our productivity even further. So we ultimately believe that AI should not replace educators and it crucial that Al generated content still gets checked and verified by human experts in the target domain.
