Test yourself on your own notes with a free AI quiz generator
Upload the slides, PDFs or notes your class actually uses. DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with explanations, so you can practice the material that will be on the test.
Why practice questions beat rereading
Practice questions show you what you can recall without looking, which rereading never tests. This free AI quiz generator for studying turns your own slides, PDFs or notes into questions, so the practice matches what your instructor actually covers.
- Generate questions from the exact PDF, slides or notes your course uses.
- Mix multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one session.
- Read an explanation for every answer, right or wrong, to find the gap.
- Retry missed questions after a delay, which is when recall really gets tested.
Multiple question types
Get multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions. Each one includes an explanation, so a wrong answer shows you why the right one is correct.
Built from your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition, so handwritten-free printed notes work well.
Study in the browser
The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. No credit card is needed to start.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or a photo of a page from your course.
Choose a question type
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions for your session.
Answer and review
Read each explanation, then retry the questions you missed until they come easily.
Each question comes with an explanation, which matters as much as the answer. When you miss a question, the explanation points to the specific idea you need to review, rather than leaving you to hunt through a chapter.
Start with a small set on one topic, check your misses, and generate again on the same material after a day or two. The Free plan gives you 3 generations per month, enough to test a single unit before deciding whether you need more.

Frequently asked questions
How many practice questions should I do before a chemical bonding exam?
Aim for enough questions to cover every bond type and its properties, usually two or three short sets across several days. Retry the ones you missed until you can answer them without hesitating.
Is it better to answer questions or reread notes when studying chemical bonding?
Answering questions usually works better, because you have to retrieve ideas like ionic lattices or electronegativity from memory. Rereading is still useful for checking explanations after a wrong answer.
Is the free AI quiz generator really free?
The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed. Unlimited generations start with the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month.
Can I export my quiz to another app?
Exports are paid features, so they are not included in the Free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.
