Turn your notes into an Anki quiz with AI
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions with explanations. Study free in the browser, or export to Anki on Plus.
How an Anki quiz maker fits into your study routine
Pairing an Anki quiz maker with spaced repetition works best when the questions come from the exact lessons you are learning. Take a French greetings unit: bonjour, salut, enchanté and the phrases that follow them are easy to recognize but harder to produce under pressure, so questions that ask you to choose or write the right phrase build recall faster than re-reading.
- Generate from your own lecture slides or notes, not generic question banks
- Mix multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one set
- Check every answer against its explanation before you move on
- Start without a credit card and export to Anki when you upgrade to Plus
Three question types
Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions, each with an explanation so wrong answers still teach you something.
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the quiz follows your own lessons instead of a generic question bank.
Export when you need it
Plus adds Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV export. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for course platforms.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slides, a document, notes or a photo of a page.
Pick a question type
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions for the set.
Study or export
Practice in the browser, or export to Anki if you are on the Plus plan.
DeckOwl reads your PDF, slides, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or photos of pages and writes multiple-choice, true/false or open questions with explanations. Each answer says why the correct option is right, which matters for phrases where a formal or informal form decides the answer.
The free plan gives you 3 generations a month and browser study with no exports. Plus, at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, removes the generation limit and adds Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV export, and students get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions
How many quiz questions should I make for French greetings?
Ten to fifteen questions per lesson is a practical range, with formal and informal forms covered separately. Repeat the set a day later so the phrases start to stick.
What is the difference between formal and informal greetings in French?
Formal greetings use vous, as in Bonjour, Madame or Comment allez-vous, while informal ones use tu, as in salut or Ça va. Use the formal form with strangers, officials and older people, and switch to informal with friends.
Can I export my quizzes to Anki?
Yes, but Anki export is included with the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, not the free plan. The free plan lets you study in the browser.
Does DeckOwl have a free plan?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with no exports. No credit card is needed to start.
