Visual questions

When the Figure Is
the Question Itself

The visual is not decoration: the gap in a diagram, the colour split on a map or the row in a matrix holds the concept being tested — remove it and the question cannot be answered. It does not have to be extracted from your file either; it can be constructed from plain text. A consistency check compares the figure against the question text and flags mismatches for review.

No card required

What it can draw

The figure is generated for the question, not picked from a stock library — so it contains exactly the data the item asks about.

Charts and data displays

Bar charts, line graphs, pie charts and tables that carry the data the question actually asks about — the core of data-interpretation items.

Geometry figures

Triangles, circles, coordinate planes and composite shapes with the labels and measurements the question depends on.

Diagrams and schematics

Venn diagrams, process flows, physics setups and labelled scientific diagrams for questions that need a structure, not a photo.

Constructed, not retrieved

The figure is produced together with the question rather than picked from a bank, so it can be built for the exact distinction being tested — including from a source that contains no images at all.

How it works

1. Upload your material

Upload one PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, JPG, or PNG file. JPG and PNG files are interpreted with AI vision. A scanned PDF with no text layer is detected automatically and processed from its page images.

2. Ask for visual questions

Choose visual question types and the subject area. Difficulty and cognitive level are set the same way as for text questions.

3. Figure and text generated together

A visual agent draws the figure while the question is written, then a consistency check confirms the text and the drawing agree — that the labels, values and shapes the question references are the ones actually drawn.

4. Review and export

Preview each figure alongside its question and answer key, edit what you want, then export.

Frequently asked questions

What is a visual question generator?

It is a tool that produces exam questions together with the figure each question needs — a chart, diagram or geometry drawing — instead of only writing text and leaving you to source or draw the image yourself.

Does the visual have to come from my file?

No. If your document contains figures they can be used, but the point is that a figure can be constructed even when the source is plain text — a set of rules can become a rules panel plus a case matrix, for example. That is what makes the visual part of the question rather than an illustration of it.

How do you stop the picture and the question contradicting each other?

A consistency check runs after generation and compares the question text against the figure. Pairs that fall below the threshold are flagged for human review rather than passed through silently. It is a review aid, not a guarantee: you confirm the figure before using the question.

Which subjects does this work for?

Not only mathematics and science. It also works in literature, history, geography and law, where a thematic map, a process diagram, a scene or a case matrix can carry the concept being tested. Data-interpretation items in social science rely on the same mechanism.

Can I edit the generated figure?

You can review every figure with its question before export and regenerate any pair you are not happy with. Questions and answer keys remain fully editable.

Can visual questions be aligned to a framework or Bloom level?

Yes. Visual questions use the same configuration as text questions, so you can target a Bloom's Taxonomy level or a PISA or TIMSS framework alignment and still get an item that comes with its own figure.

What does it cost to try?
