Create AI content from a URL

You can now create relevant Riddle content more easily than ever before.
Simply paste the URL of any social media post or article online and Riddle will automatically create a quiz or poll/survey from it.
This is a big milestone in our AI developments, where AI starts to lighten your workload and deliver excellent and usable outcomes for you.
Major accessibility improvements
In close collaboration with the BBC, we have accessibility-proofed all Riddle blocks.
We are happy to announce that our embeds are now fully accessible for screen readers, meeting WCAG 2.2 and EAA standards.
We have scheduled an audit with an external supplier and will provide an official accessibility statement you can refer to in the next months.
Our next goal is to also make our Creator (which is partly accessible so far) fully accessible.
Remember users
If the “Remember user” feature is turned on, Riddle will save all your user’s form entries to the user’s local storage. The data can then be used to automatically submit forms, or to prefill form fields.
This feature has two advantages:
- Your users don’t have to fill out forms over and over again.
- By writing into the user’s local storage, the data is stored in the user’s browser only. The data is stored encrypted, and cannot be accessed by any other page.

Please note: Please check with your privacy lawyer if you need to add this option to your privacy policy.
Double opt-in via SMS
