Random Trivia, Quotes & Life Hacks API

What it does

Random Knowledge lets you fetch short, ready-to-use content from five endpoints: riddles, trivia, life hacks, quotes, and affirmations. Each response is a simple JSON object, so you can drop the result straight into a widget, homepage module, onboarding screen, or daily content feed.

The service provides random riddles, trivia, life hacks, quotes, and affirmations, with some endpoints offering optional parameters to control the type or length of content returned.

For quote flows, GET /retrieve-random-quote accepts optional max-length and min-length query values and returns a quote plus author. GET /retrieve-random-affirmation takes no input and returns an affirmation and an image field. All fields in the responses are nullable, so your client should handle empty values gracefully.

Random Knowledge is useful anywhere you want lightweight, human-friendly content without building your own content pipeline: a daily prompt in a product dashboard, a fresh onboarding card, a classroom activity, or a small engagement feature in a consumer app.
