Get a Gimkit spreadsheet template built from your own notes
DeckOwl does not host ready-made spreadsheet files. Upload your PDF, slides, DOCX, notes or photos of pages, and get multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with explanations that match your unit.
Why a custom question set beats a generic download
Teachers who want a downloadable Gimkit spreadsheet template usually run into the same problem: a generic file has no questions from their unit. DeckOwl does not supply ready-made spreadsheets. It reads your own material and writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions, each with an explanation.
- Questions drawn from your own slides, notes or PDFs
- Explanations that show why each answer is correct
- CSV export on Plus for spreadsheet-based editing
- Free plan with 3 generations per month to test the output
Built from your material
Questions come from the PDF, slides, DOCX, plain notes or page photos you upload, so the content matches what you actually teach.
Answers and explanations
Every question includes the correct answer and a short explanation, so students learn why an answer is right, not just which letter to pick.
CSV export on Plus
Plus exports your questions as CSV, which opens in any spreadsheet app. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
How it works
Upload your source
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.
Choose a question type
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate a set sized for your session.
Review and export
Check each question and explanation, edit anything off, then study in the browser or export to CSV on Plus.
Paid plans let you export the results. Plus includes CSV export, which gives you one row per question. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study with no exports, so you can test the output before you pay.

Frequently asked questions
How should I set up a spreadsheet for quiz questions?
Use one row per question and separate columns for the question, correct answer, wrong options and explanation. Keep each column to one type of data so sorting and filtering work cleanly.
How many quiz questions should I write for one unit?
Most instructors start with 15 to 25 questions per unit and add more where students repeatedly miss the same concept. Check that each question tests one idea.
Can I export the generated questions to a spreadsheet?
Yes, on the Plus plan, which includes CSV export. Plus is $39 per year or $7.99 per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month and study in the browser. Exports are available on paid plans only.
