Turn your notes into a practice quiz in minutes
DeckOwl is an AI quiz generator. Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations.
Quizzes without writing a line of code
Searching for how to make a quiz app usually means one of two things: writing code, or just wanting a quiz you can study from. DeckOwl covers the second case. You upload your own notes, and the AI writes the questions and explanations for you.
- Works with PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain notes and photos of pages
- Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions, each with an explanation
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month and study in the browser
- Paid exports cover PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, with QTI and Moodle XML on Pro
Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions
Each question comes with an explanation so you learn why the right answer is right, not just which letter to pick.
Built from your own material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. The text is read and turned into questions that match your course.
Export when you need it
Paid plans export to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. The Pro plan adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, text file or photo of your notes. No setup or code is involved.
Choose the question types
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and set how many you want.
Study the quiz
Take the quiz in your browser, read the explanations, and review missed questions.
If you do want to build a custom app with your own interface, that is a programming project and DeckOwl will not do it for you. For most students, though, the goal is practice questions that match what they are learning, and that takes a few minutes instead of an afternoon of coding.
Start with the free plan, which includes 3 generations per month and browser study. Plus and Pro add unlimited generations and exports when you need your quizzes in another tool.
