Turn your class notes into a game-style quiz to review at your pace
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or open questions with explanations. Study on your own schedule, and use exports when you need to share.
How a self-paced quiz compares to a live game
Quick, competitive review works best when the questions match your own course, so DeckOwl builds a Gimkit blooket-style quiz from your PDFs, slides or notes instead of pulling generic questions from a library. DeckOwl does not run live multiplayer games, so you study alone or share exported files with your class.
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions from your own notes
- Explanations for every answer so review is more than right or wrong
- Flashcards with spaced repetition and mind maps from the same material
- Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV on Plus, plus QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Questions from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photo of a page, and DeckOwl writes questions based on what you actually need to learn.
Three question types
Get multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation so wrong answers teach you something.
Study in the browser
Take quizzes and review flashcards with spaced repetition right in your browser, with no extra app to install.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, slides, a Word file or plain text notes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.
Choose a quiz format
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, then generate your quiz in one step.
Review and repeat
Answer at your own pace, read the explanations, and retake the questions you missed.
Each question comes with an explanation, which helps you understand why an answer is right or wrong. Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer formats let you test recall in different ways, and the same material can also become flashcards or a mind map.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and in-browser study. Plus costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month for unlimited generations, spaced repetition and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. Pro is $14.99/month and adds a stronger AI model, bulk upload, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export. Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should I review in one sitting for the US Constitution?
A set of 10 to 15 questions is a practical size for one sitting. Spreading shorter sessions across several days helps more than one long cram session.
What is the best way to study the US Constitution with quizzes?
Mix multiple-choice and short-answer questions, then read the explanation for every miss and retake those questions later. Writing a one-sentence answer from memory before checking helps you remember the structure of the document.
Does DeckOwl run live games like Gimkit or Blooket?
No. DeckOwl creates self-paced quizzes, flashcards and mind maps from your material, and it does not have a live multiplayer mode.
Can I export my quiz to Moodle or QTI?
QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are part of the Pro plan at $14.99/month. PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export are included in the Plus plan.
