Questions from your own material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. The quiz is built from what you actually studied.

Three question types

Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions cover recall and understanding in one quiz.

Explanations for every answer

Each question includes a short explanation, so students learn why an answer is right, not just which letter to pick.

How it works

Upload your material

Add your notes, slides or a PDF from class. Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition.

Choose the question types

Pick multiple-choice, true/false, short-answer or a mix, depending on what the students need to practice.

Study or share

Work through the quiz in your browser on the free plan. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are available on paid plans.

Mixing question types works well. Multiple-choice questions check recognition, true/false questions catch misconceptions quickly, and short-answer questions ask students to explain a concept in their own words. Explanations after each answer turn a wrong guess into a short lesson.

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Exporting to PDF or DOCX requires Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports are on Pro.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a student quiz include?

For one chapter or lecture, 10 to 20 questions is usually enough to check understanding without overwhelming the student. Shorter quizzes repeated over several days tend to work better than one long session.

How often should students retake a quiz?

Retaking a quiz after one or two days helps move answers into longer-term memory. Questions missed the first time are worth returning to more often than the ones answered correctly.

Is there a free plan for creating quizzes?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Exports are not included on the free plan.

Can I export the quiz to PDF or Moodle?

Exports are paid features. PDF and DOCX exports are on the Plus plan, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports are on the Pro plan.
