Test Bank Creation for Educational Publishers

Stop outsourcing test bank development. Use AI-powered question generation combined with an editorial verification workflow to produce publisher-grade assessments in a fraction of the time.

The Problem with Traditional Test Bank Development

$3-4 Per Question

Outsourced test bank development costs $3-4 per question, making a 1,000-question bank a $3,000-4,000 investment per title -- and most publishers have dozens of titles to maintain.

Quality Inconsistency

Freelance item writers produce uneven quality across chapters and editions. Taxonomy alignment, distractor quality, and difficulty calibration vary wildly between contributors.

Weeks of Turnaround

Traditional test bank development takes 4-6 weeks per title. New editions and revision cycles compound delays, causing test banks to lag behind textbook releases.

Manual Reformatting

Test banks delivered in Word documents require extensive reformatting for LMS import. Converting between QTI, Blackboard, and proprietary formats wastes hours of editorial time.

QuestionForge for Publishers

Upload Textbook Chapters

Upload PDF, Word, PowerPoint, or EPUB files directly. QuestionForge extracts text and identifies key concepts, learning objectives, and topic boundaries automatically.

Editorial Verification Workflow

AI-generated questions go through a structured review process. Editors can approve, reject, or refine questions using the built-in AI chat to adjust difficulty, rewrite distractors, or align to taxonomy.

Batch Processing

Process entire textbooks at once. Queue multiple chapters for generation and let the system work through them in the background while your team reviews completed batches.

Multi-Format Export

Export test banks to PDF, Word, Excel, or deliver directly through LTI 1.3 integration. No manual reformatting needed -- one source, every format.

REST API Access

Integrate QuestionForge into your existing publishing pipeline with our REST API. Programmatically create question banks, trigger generation, and retrieve results.

Team Collaboration

Invite subject matter experts, editors, and reviewers to your workspace. Assign permissions, track review status, and maintain editorial oversight across your entire catalog.
