What is AI Subject Matter Expert (SME)?

AI Subject Matter Expert is an AI-powered reviewer that evaluates AI-generated tests based on the selected job role.

Instead of manually reviewing every question, the AI SME analyzes the test from a role-specific perspective and provides structured feedback on test quality.

How it works

Step 1: Open your AI-generated test

  • Go to Questionnaire in the test creation flow.

  • You’ll see a Test overview at the top with role, experience level, and skills.


Step 2: Start AI review

  • In the Test overview section, click Review this test with an AI domain expert

  • A short intro video explains what the AI will do:

    • Analyse question relevance and quality

    • Flag weak or misaligned questions

    • Suggest improved alternatives

Click Understood, start review.


Step 3: AI review runs in the background

  • You’ll see a progress indicator: AI review under progress

  • No action needed. AI scans questions section by section.


Step 4: Review flagged questions

Once analysis starts, an AI expert review modal opens for flagged questions.

You’ll see the original question with the AI feedback explaining- What needs improvement.


If you agree with the reasoning, you can go ahead and click on 'Improve the question'

Step 5: Accept or skip suggestions

For each suggestion, you can:

  • Accept new question → replaces the original instantly

  • Skip for now → keeps the original question unchanged. You can come back to this later

Accepted questions update immediately in your test.

Step 6: Confirmation and completion

After accepting a suggestion:

  • You’ll see a confirmation like Question has been updated

  • Continue reviewing remaining flagged questions (if any)

Once complete, your test reflects all accepted improvements.

Why this is useful

  • Builds confidence in AI-generated tests

  • Reduces manual review effort

  • Helps catch gaps and weak questions early

  • Especially useful for non-technical or first-time users

Things to keep in mind

  • AI SME evaluates only AI-generated tests

  • Feedback is role-specific, based on the selected job role

  • The AI provides recommendations, and you remain in full control of final edits
