Turn your vocabulary words into a quiz with AI
Upload a PDF, slide deck or set of notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions, each with an explanation.
How the AI vocabulary quiz works
Vocabulary lists pile up fast, and writing every word into a quiz by hand takes time you could spend studying. DeckOwl reads your own material and builds an AI-made vocabulary quiz with multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation.
- Questions use the exact terms from your own notes or reading.
- Explanations point out the root, prefix or context behind each answer.
- Short answer questions make you recall a definition instead of recognizing it.
- Free plan users can study in the browser before deciding on a paid plan.
Works from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain text notes, or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.
Three question types
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of the correct answer.
Study in the browser
The free plan lets you study in the browser. Plus adds spaced repetition and PDF or DOCX export.
How it works
Upload your word list
Add the PDF, slides, notes or page photos that contain the vocabulary you need to learn.
Choose question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the quiz from your own text.
Study and check answers
Work through the questions and read the explanations. Paid plans can export the quiz for class or review.
Because every question comes from your word list or reading, the quiz matches what your course actually asks. The explanations show why an answer is right, which helps with words that look or sound alike.

Frequently asked questions
How many vocabulary words should I put in one quiz?
Most students find 10 to 20 words per session easier to review and remember. Once you can recall earlier sets reliably, move on to larger lists.
What is the best way to study vocabulary for a test?
Try using each word in a sentence, learn its root or prefix, and quiz yourself before you check the definition. Spacing your reviews over several days works better than one long session.
Can I export my vocabulary quiz?
Yes, on paid plans. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You can start on the free plan, which includes 3 generations per month, without adding a credit card.
