Turn your lecture notes into an AI quiz in minutes
Upload a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page. DeckOwl writes multiple choice, true/false and open questions, each with an explanation, so you can practice before the exam.
How an AI quiz generator fits into studying
Teachers and students often start with a stack of slides and no time to write practice questions. An AI quiz generator reads that material and drafts questions from it, so the quiz reflects what your class actually covered.
- Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages
- Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions with explanations
- Free plan covers 3 generations per month and studying in the browser
- Paid plans add unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export
Three question types
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions, so you test recognition and recall.
Explanations for every answer
Each question shows why the correct answer is right, so a wrong guess becomes a lesson.
Export when you need it
Paid plans export to PDF, DOCX, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for class handouts and learning systems.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page.
Choose the question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false, short answer or a mix for your quiz.
Take the quiz and review
Answer the questions, read the explanations and retake the ones you missed.
Quiz questions work best when they test recall, not just recognition. Mixing multiple choice with short answer questions and true/false items shows where your understanding is thin before a test does.
Because every question comes with an explanation, the quiz doubles as a review guide. Reading why an answer is wrong often fixes the misconception faster than rereading the chapter.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a biology quiz include?
A focused set of questions covers one chapter well without overwhelming you. Mixing multiple choice with short answer questions tests recall better than recognition alone.
How should I study quiz questions for biology?
Read the explanation for every question, including the ones you got right. Then retake the missed questions after a gap of a day or two rather than cramming them in one sitting.
Can I export a quiz to Moodle?
Yes, Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 export are included on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. The Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month includes PDF and DOCX export.
Is there a free plan?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Exports require a paid plan, and students with a school email get 40% off.
