How I Built an Award-Winning Platform to Save Teachers Hours of Work

Hi Dev.to, I’m 16 and I’m building PippaQuiz, an award-winning platform that helps teachers create quizzes and exams faster.

Recently, PippaQuiz won Best Startup at a startup innovation competition, competing against professional companies and university teams, and being the youngest team there was an incredible experience. This recognition shows that what we’re building is actually solving a real problem for educators.

Teachers spend hours every week designing questions, preparing exams, and grading responses. PippaQuiz reduces that workload by around 80%, so teachers can spend more time actually teaching.

How PippaQuiz Works

Teachers provide the lesson or topic, our AI generates high-quality questions instantly, exams can be run in-app, and MCQs are automatically graded, teachers can also export everything to PDF, Word, or Google Forms if needed.

Sample Use Cases

• High School Math: Generate 50 practice questions in less than 5 minutes, and instantly see results after students complete the exam.
• University Courses: Run multiple-choice midterms, automatically grade responses, and get class performance summaries without spreadsheets.
• Community Learning: Host public quizzes and exams that anyone can take, ideal for workshops, online courses, or student clubs.

Winning this award motivates me to keep building and improving PippaQuiz, making exams simpler, fairer, and more meaningful, while helping teachers focus on what really matters, teaching.
