How the AI quiz maker builds questions from your material

Writing practice questions by hand from a long slide deck takes longer than most people expect. An AI quiz maker reads the material you already have and drafts questions that match it, so your time goes to answering instead of writing.

  • Multiple-choice questions with one correct answer and explained distractors
  • True/false items for quick checks on definitions and facts
  • Short answer prompts that require you to write the term from memory
  • Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV on Plus, plus QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Example Spanish present-tense verb quiz questions
Conjugate hablar for yo in the present tense.hablo. Regular -ar verbs drop the -ar and add -o for the yo form.
True or false: tener changes its stem to tiene for yo.False. The yo form is tengo. The stem change to tiene appears in the tú, él, ella and usted forms.
Which form of ir is correct for nosotros?vamos. Ir is irregular, so the nosotros form does not follow the regular -amos pattern.
Conjugate comer for ellos.comen. Regular -er verbs drop the -er and add -en for ellos and ustedes.
Which verb changes its stem from e to ie: querer or pedir?Querer. It becomes quiero, quieres and quiere, while pedir changes e to i instead, as in pido.

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of the correct answer.

Built from your material

Works from PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain notes, or a photo of a page read with text recognition.

Export when you need it

Plus exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or an image of your pages.

Choose question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, or mix them in one quiz.

Study or export

Practice in the browser on the free plan, or export your quiz on Plus or Pro.

Each question includes an explanation, so a wrong answer shows you why the right one is correct. Short answer items ask you to produce the term or idea yourself, which exercises recall rather than recognition.

Review the questions before you rely on them. The model can misread a scanned page or miss a nuance in your notes, so check the answer key against your textbook or lecture.

Frequently asked questions

How many practice questions should I answer in one session?

Ten to fifteen questions in a single sitting is a workable target for most learners. Mixing question types keeps recall active across the session.

How should I study Spanish present-tense verbs with quiz questions?

Start with regular -ar, -er and -ir conjugations, then move to stem-changing and irregular verbs like tener and ir once the endings feel automatic. Say short answer responses out loud before you check them.

Which file types can I upload?

You can upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and notes, or images of pages, which are read with text recognition.

Do I need to pay to export my quiz?

Yes. Exports are a paid feature: Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan lets you study in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.
