About the quantguide.io API

This API exposes 6 endpoints covering QuantGuide.io's full question bank, company statistics, curated playlists, the Quantify leaderboard, and community discussion posts. The get_questions_list endpoint returns question objects with fields including id, title, difficulty, topic, isPremium, companies, tags, and urlEnding, and accepts filters for topic, company, difficulty, and keyword search — making it straightforward to build tooling on top of QuantGuide's quant finance interview content.

Question Data

get_questions_list returns every question on QuantGuide with filtered_count and total_count integers alongside the matched array. You can narrow results by passing a topic slug (probability, brainteasers, statistics, pure math, finance), a company name (Jane Street, Citadel, SIG, Five Rings, Goldman Sachs), a difficulty level (easy, medium, hard), or a free-text query. Each question object carries an isPremium boolean so you can separate freely available content from gated material.

get_question_detail accepts a slug (the urlEnding value from the list endpoint) and returns the full question prompt with LaTeX notation intact, plus the topic, difficulty, companies array, and tags array for that item. This is the endpoint to use when you need renderable math content.

Company and Playlist Data

list_companies returns all companies found across the question bank as an array of {name, count} objects sorted by question count descending — useful for ranking which firms appear most frequently in the question set. get_playlists returns curated collections from QuantGuide's questions page, each with a name, description, and url, reflecting the themed study sets the platform maintains.

Leaderboard and Discussions

get_leaderboard returns ranked entries for QuantGuide's Quantify mental math simulator: each entry has a rank, username, and score. get_discussion_posts accepts a category parameter (InterviewExperience, InterviewQuestions, Compensation, InterviewPreparation) and returns posts with title, slug, upvotes, comments, tags, and url — covering the forum side of the platform alongside the question bank.

Common use cases
  • Build a flashcard or study app filtered to a specific company like Jane Street or Citadel using the company parameter in get_questions_list
  • Track which firms appear most often in quant interview prep by querying list_companies for name and count data
  • Render full question prompts with LaTeX math notation in a custom UI using get_question_detail
  • Display or analyze Quantify leaderboard rankings by fetching get_leaderboard entries with rank, username, and score
  • Aggregate community discussion posts by category (e.g. InterviewExperience or Compensation) from get_discussion_posts
  • Identify premium-gated questions before building a free study guide by filtering on the isPremium boolean in question results
  • Surface curated study playlists in a learning tool using the name, description, and url fields from get_playlists

Frequently asked questions
Does QuantGuide.io have an official developer API?+
QuantGuide.io does not publish a documented public developer API. This Parse API provides structured programmatic access to the platform's questions, companies, playlists, leaderboard, and discussions.
What does get_question_detail return that get_questions_list does not?+
get_question_detail returns the full prompt field containing the question text with LaTeX notation preserved, which is absent from the list endpoint. The list endpoint is designed for browsing and filtering across all questions, while the detail endpoint is for retrieving renderable content for a single question by its slug.
Does the API expose user account data, submission history, or personal progress?+
Not currently. The API covers publicly accessible content: questions, company counts, playlists, the global leaderboard, and discussion posts. Personal profiles, individual submission history, and account-level progress data are not included. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add an endpoint targeting user-facing profile or progress pages.
Can I filter discussion posts by more than one category at a time?+
get_discussion_posts accepts a single category value per request. The valid values are InterviewExperience, InterviewQuestions, Compensation, and InterviewPreparation. To aggregate across multiple categories, you would make one request per category. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to merge multi-category results in a single response.
Are solutions or answer explanations included in the question detail response?+
The get_question_detail response returns the question prompt, metadata, tags, and company associations. Solution content is not currently exposed. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add an endpoint that retrieves solution or editorial content for questions where it is publicly accessible.
