Preparing for the DGT theory exam isn't easy, especially if Spanish isn't your first language: a huge question bank, very specific vocabulary and trick wording. What if you had a tutor who never gets tired, answers at any hour and explains every rule in your own language?

That's how the Skilyapp AI assistant works: a chat that knows the DGT rules and explains them in a way that makes sense.

What the AI Does in Skilyapp

Explanations in your language

Got a question wrong? The AI doesn't just show the right answer. It walks you through the logic of the question: why that option is correct, which rule is behind it and how to remember it.

It helps most with vocabulary. If you run into psicotécnico (the aptitude test taken as part of the medical check-up), matriculación (vehicle registration) or permiso por puntos (the points-based licence), the AI translates the term and tells you where it shows up in the exam.

Finding your weak spots

The app keeps track of your answers and shows which topics are going well and which need review. You don't have to work through the whole question bank in order. You can focus on what you actually find hard.

Feature What it does
Error analysis Shows which topics you get wrong most often
Weak-topic tests Pick questions from the topics where you made mistakes
Explanations any time Ask whenever you like and get an instant answer
Term translation DGT vocabulary explained in plain words

Practice in the real exam format

The real exam has 30 questions, 30 minutes and a maximum of 3 mistakes. Practise in that same format: after each mock test the AI tells you what to pay attention to.

Why This Beats Plain Memorising

The usual route is to read the manual and take tests one after another. It works, but it's slow: you waste time on questions you already know while the hard ones get no attention.

In Skilyapp, questions you got wrong come back more often and the ones you've mastered come back less often. This is spaced repetition, a well-known technique for memorising large amounts of material.

How to Start Using the AI Assistant

The AI tutor is built into the app. You can:

  1. Ask in the chat: type your question and the AI answers with an explanation based on the DGT rule
  2. Ask for a breakdown of a mistake: after a test, open the wrong answer and the AI explains where you went wrong
  3. Ask for a topic explained: not sure how to drive through a roundabout or how priority works? The AI explains with examples

The AI's answers are a study aid. If you need the exact wording of a rule, check the official text on dgt.es.

Not Just AI: All Your Preparation in One Place

The AI assistant is one part of the platform. Alongside it you get:

  • Duels: compete with other students in real time
  • Flashcards: memorise signs and terms quickly
  • Dictionary: DGT terminology with translations and explanations
  • Road signs: a reference to the signs used in Spain

Together they make studying less of a grind.
