TRY A SAMPLE QUESTION

Why is 3/4 greater than 2/3?

Compare equal-sized pieces.

With a common denominator of 12, 3/4 becomes 9/12 and 2/3 becomes 8/12. Nine twelfths is greater than eight twelfths.

GOOD TO KNOW

Setup & FAQ

Provider compatibility, privacy, permissions, and more.

What AI providers can I use?

QuizWhiz works with any OpenAI-compatible /chat/completions endpoint:

  • OpenAI: https://api.openai.com/v1 with models like gpt-4o-mini
  • Local LLMs: LM Studio, Ollama, or any local server (e.g., http://localhost:1234/v1)
  • Other providers: Any service offering OpenAI-compatible chat completions

Note: Anthropic's native /v1/messages API is NOT OpenAI-compatible and is unsupported. Use an OpenAI-compatible proxy if you want to use Claude models.

Where do I get an API key?

For OpenAI, create an account at platform.openai.com and generate an API key under API keys.

For local servers (LM Studio, Ollama), no API key is needed—just use http://localhost:1234/v1 (or your server's URL) and leave the API key field empty.

What settings should I use?
Base URL: https://api.openai.com/v1
Model ID: gpt-4o-mini
API Key: sk-proj-...

Important: Remote endpoints must use https://. Localhost servers can use http://.

Is my data private?

QuizWhiz does not use analytics. Your browser sends requests to the provider you select. If you use the QuizWhiz backend, it forwards the request to the configured AI provider. Providers may retain requests under their own policies. Settings, including the API key, are stored locally in Chrome's extension storage.

Study Hub keeps notes and recent answers in this Chrome profile. Read the QuizWhiz privacy policy for details.

Does QuizWhiz support screenshots?

Yes. On a regular webpage, open the extension and click Draw around a question. Drag a box around the question. QuizWhiz sends only the selected image to your configured provider. Choose a model that accepts images. Press Esc to cancel.

What permissions does QuizWhiz need?
  • activeTab: Access selected text when you use the context menu
  • contextMenus: Add "Ask QuizWhiz" to the right-click menu
  • storage: Save your settings locally
  • scripting: Inject the floating answer panel onto pages
  • optional_host_permissions: Access your configured API endpoint (Chrome prompts you to allow; never granted automatically)
