Turn your own notes into a don't look down quiz with AI
Upload slides, PDFs or class notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions, each with an explanation you can study from.
Why build the review from your own material
Students and teachers who want a Gimkit don't look down style review usually already have the material in slides, PDFs or class notes. DeckOwl reads those files and writes multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions, so the review matches what was actually taught.
- Questions are drawn from your own slides, notes or documents
- Multiple choice, true/false and short-answer formats
- Explanations explain both the right answer and the common mistakes
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study
Built from your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from what your class actually covered.
Explanations on every question
Each answer includes a short explanation, so a missed question teaches you why the right answer is right.
Study in the browser or export
Study free in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page. Text in images is read with text recognition.
Choose question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate a set for the topic you are reviewing.
Study and repeat
Work through the questions, read the explanations, and come back to missed items until you can answer them cleanly.
Each question comes with an explanation, so a wrong answer becomes something to learn from rather than just a lost point. Review the missed questions first, then run the set again a day or two later to see what has stuck.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I repeat a practice quiz?
Repeat missed questions after a day or two, then again after about a week. Spacing the attempts out usually works better than repeating the whole set in one sitting.
Why do explanations matter more than the score?
An explanation shows why the correct answer works and why the distractors do not, which fixes the misunderstanding behind the mistake. Reading it right after a wrong answer makes the correction stick.
Can I export my quiz?
Exports are paid features: PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export are on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro. Browser study is included on the free plan.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month and study in the browser, and students get 40% off with a school email.
