Interactive Video Questions

AI Video Lectures can ask you a question at key moments about what you just watched. It is a built-in active recall layer — a question card appears, you answer, you get instant feedback, and the video never stops.

How It Works

While watching a completed video lecture, a question card appears as a small, non-intrusive prompt at the bottom of the video at key checkpoints. The video keeps playing — questions never pause playback. Hover or tap to expand the card, answer the question, and see whether you got it right with a quick explanation. If you'd rather keep watching, just ignore the card and it stays out of your way.

Questions are placed at moments where a new concept just finished — not at random timestamps — so each checkpoint acts like a mini knowledge check.

Turning Interactive Questions On or Off

If you'd rather watch without any question cards, use the Interactive questions toggle in the questions panel below the player. Questions are on by default; switch the toggle off to hide them entirely. The setting is saved to your account, so future videos follow the same preference until you change it.

Reviewing Questions Later

Every video lecture has an Interactive questions panel below the player. It lists each checkpoint, the question, and your answer history. From this panel you can:

  • Re-attempt any question without rewatching the video.
  • Read the AI's explanation again.
  • Jump to the exact moment in the video where the question was triggered.

Scores: Best, Last, and History

Every full run of the questions panel saves a score, so the panel doubles as a quiz tracker:

  • Best — your highest-scoring attempt so far, shown as a percentage.
  • Last — your most recent completed attempt.
  • History — the full list of past attempts with the date, the score, and how many questions you answered correctly. Open any past attempt to see exactly which questions you got right and wrong.

Best and Last appear right next to the questions list so you can see your top score at a glance. Retake the questions as many times as you like — only completed attempts count toward your Best.

Turning the Video into Study Material

Use the Create flashcards from this video action on the video page to generate a flashcard deck from the lecture's content. It pulls from the same material the questions were generated from, so the cards line up with what the video actually taught — a natural next step after a low-scoring attempt.

When Questions Are Prepared

For new video lectures, questions are prepared automatically as part of generation — they are ready by the time the video finishes processing. For older videos created before this feature existed, the question pass runs the first time you open the video, and the questions appear within a few seconds.

Tips

  • Treat the questions as real checkpoints. Answering as you go is more valuable than skipping past the cards.
  • Use the questions panel after watching to re-attempt anything you got wrong — the explanation plus the jump-to-moment link makes a fast review loop.
  • Create flashcards from the video for the concepts you missed. That captures the exact gap in your understanding.
  • For passive review (commute, kitchen, etc.), turn the Interactive questions toggle off and let the video play straight through.
