Why a free trivia maker helps with quiz nights and review
Hosting a round of trivia usually means writing questions from scratch, and that takes longer than the round itself. A free trivia maker that starts from material you already have cuts that work down to a review pass.
- Turn slides, PDFs and notes into trivia questions in one upload
- Choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions for each round
- Read a short explanation for every answer to keep the round educational
- Start free with 3 generations a month and no credit card
Questions from your own material
Trivia built from your class slides, PDFs or notes stays on your topic instead of generic filler.
Explanations for every answer
Each question includes a short reason for the correct answer, so players learn something even when they miss.
Study in the browser for free
The free plan gives you 3 generations a month and lets you run your quiz right in the browser.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.
Choose a question type
Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions, then generate the set.
Review and run it
Check the questions and explanations, edit anything you want, and use the set for your next round.
Because the questions come from your own slides or reading, the round covers what your group actually needs to know. Students and teachers can use the same set for a warm-up or for a final review before a test.

Frequently asked questions
How many trivia questions should a round have?
