Quizzes from your own files

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of a handout, and get questions drawn from that material.

Explanations for every answer

Each question comes with a short explanation, so students learn from wrong answers as well as right ones.

Study in the browser

The free plan lets students take quizzes in the browser. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV need Plus, and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML export needs Pro.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, Word file or notes. Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition.

Choose question types

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, and decide how many questions you want in the set.

Check and share

Review the questions and explanations, then have students study in the browser or export if you are on a paid plan.

Once the draft is ready, check each question against your lesson goals before you assign it. The free plan lets you try the full workflow with 3 generations a month, and Plus at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month removes the limit and adds PDF and DOCX export.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a classroom quiz have?

Most classroom quizzes work well with 5 to 10 questions, which takes about 10 minutes to answer. Shorter quizzes make it easier to check understanding right after a lesson.

How do I write good wrong answers for multiple-choice questions?

Make each wrong option a plausible mistake, such as a common misconception or a step done in the wrong order, and keep all options similar in length. Read the explanation to confirm the correct answer is clearly the best choice.

Is the free plan really free?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports need a paid plan, with PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV on Plus and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro.

Can I export quizzes to Moodle?

Yes, Moodle XML export is included in the Pro plan at $14.99 per month, which also adds QTI 2.1 export and a stronger AI model. Plus at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month covers PDF and DOCX export.
