I’ve been building an AI revision app and I’m trying to figure out if this would actually help students
I’ve been working on this over the last few weeks after getting frustrated with how revision usually works (doing questions → checking answers → not really improving).
So I started building something that feels a bit more like having a teacher + revision system combined.
Right now it can:
- Give you full exam-style papers (GCSE / A-level level)
- Mark your answers like an examiner (method marks, partial marks, etc.)
- Explain exactly where you lost marks and what you should’ve done instead
- Highlight weak topics so you know what to focus on
The part I’m working on now (and would love opinions on) is this:
Instead of just telling you what you got wrong, it turns your mistakes into revision automatically.
So after a test, you’d get things like:
- Flashcards generated from your mistakes
- Key concepts you struggled with turned into quick review questions
- A simple spaced repetition system so you actually remember it
So it’s less:
“do a test and move on”
and more:
“do a test → fix mistakes → train those weak areas properly”
I’m also thinking of adding a separate section for “real life” skills that school doesn’t really teach well (CVs, interviews, money, etc.) but that’s secondary for now.
I’m not trying to promote anything — I just want honest feedback:
👉 Would you actually use something like this?
👉 Does the “flashcards from mistakes” idea sound useful or unnecessary?
👉 What’s the most annoying part of revising for you right now?
If anyone’s interested I can share what I’ve built so far, but I’d mainly just appreciate real opinions before I take it further
