ManaDrill operator — new platform launch story
ℹ︎For confidentiality, company names, service names and system images have been replaced with pseudonyms and mock-ups.

Learning that becomes "just for you" the more you solve — from scratch.

ManaDrill is an online question-drill platform for certification and exam prep. It manages over 10,000 questions by field and automatically extracts weak points from each learner's results.

The experience of "reviewing only your weak points, extracting just the scope you need and keeping a learning record" — in 7 months we built it in-house from scratch: a new-platform launch story.

About the client

ManaDrill, one of the country's leading online learning services.

The company behind ManaDrill provides an online question-drill service for certification and exam prep. It systematically manages questions across a wide range of fields — math, English, IT and more — using per-field hierarchical categories.

Beyond just 'solving questions,' it tailors what's asked to each person's weak points, aiming to maximize learning efficiency.

CHALLENGE
Design challenges to solve

Four design challenges to deliver "study material just for you."

The key wasn't a generic quiz app, but how to design an experience that directly drives learning efficiency.

Focused review of weak points raises learning efficiency

We needed a system that automatically extracts the questions you got wrong and serves them first.

Extracting only the needed scope cuts wasted effort

A large question bank had to be flexibly filtered by hierarchical category + keyword — that design was essential.

Keeping records builds motivation to keep going

We needed to accumulate answer history and accuracy for each user and visualize it.

When operators can grow the bank, value keeps building

A foundation letting operators manage questions, categories & notifications themselves was essential.

ARCHITECTURE
The architecture we built together

Four mechanisms, built in-house from scratch.

Together with Amela, we built the core learning cycle — 'extract → answer → record → review weak points' — in-house from scratch. By structuring question, category and answer data, we created a system that gets more accurate the more you solve.
