What's inside​

• Mingo Sprint — two rounds of five lesson questions, Relaxed or Beat the Clock, 2 Sparks per right answer.
• Twelve quick games — six for Basic 1 to 6 and six for secondary school, each with step-by-step screenshots of the real game and its levels.
• Sparks and the Style Lab — every way to earn, the 60-a-day limit, outfit prices and the Beginner, Stylish and Iconic ranks.
• The Mingo Ladder — 70 steps from Rookie to Legend, gift boxes, streak shields and term seasons.
• Stickers and playing with friends.
• The Sunday class competition — 4 pm to 5 pm Lagos time, three knockout rounds, monthly points and prize Sunday, plus how MMT tokens from lessons can earn a seat in the class final.

Written for families​

Every page is in plain language, with numbered steps, tables and screenshots taken from the app itself — no made-up drawings. Every number in it comes from the rules the app actually runs. If the team changes a price in the Style Lab, the app always shows the current one.

Why we built it​

Every team building a study app in Nigeria — and across Africa — hits the same wall. The questions.

Authentic past papers are scattered across PDFs, photocopies and link-rot. Re-keying them is slow and error-prone, and the tempting shortcut — asking an LLM to "generate JAMB questions" — produces plausible nonsense that quietly teaches students the wrong things.

We spent years assembling and verifying this content against official exam-board sources. Our one rule has never changed: we never fabricate a question. Now you can build on that same foundation instead of rebuilding it.

What you get​

• An exam registry — supported exams with official section specs, timing, question types and scoring rubrics.
• Verified past papers — grouped by year, each with a stable paper_id.
• A mock-exam engine — open a paper into a timed attempt, page through questions, submit answers, get scored feedback.
• Verified source links — official exam-board and past-question references.

Hello, world​

import { MirrorMingo } from "@mirrormingo/sdk";

const mm = new MirrorMingo({ apiKey: process.env.MIRRORMINGO_API_KEY });
const learnerId = "student-42";

const catalog = await mm.mockExams.listPapers("jamb");
const attempt = await mm.mockExams.open("jamb", {
  paperId: catalog.years[0].papers[0].paper_id,
  questionLimit: 10,
  learnerId,
});

const answers = Object.fromEntries(
  attempt.questions.slice(0, 3).map((question) => [
    question.answer_id ?? String(question.question_number),
    "A",
  ]),
);
const result = await mm.mockExams.submit("jamb", {
  attemptId: attempt.attempt_id,
  answers,
  learnerId,
});
console.log(result.feedback);

Six SDKs, one source of truth​

We ship official SDKs for TypeScript/Node, Python, Java, PHP, Go and Dart. All six are generated from a single OpenAPI spec, so they never drift from the API. The TypeScript SDK is hand-crafted for the DX we wanted across our own apps.

Built for the agent era too​

Because so much new learning software is being built by AI agents, we also ship a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Point any MCP-capable app, IDE, or agent at it and it can pull real JAMB questions and mark answers — no glue code. More on that in the next post.
