Turn your class notes into a free Kahoot-style quiz
Upload a PDF, slides, a Word file or photos of pages and get practice questions with explanations. The free plan includes 3 generations a month and no credit card to start.
What the free plan covers and where exports begin
Teachers and students who search for a free Kahoot-style quiz creator usually want questions that test recall, not another slideshow to reread. DeckOwl reads your own PDF, slides or notes and writes multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions, each with an explanation. It is a study quiz you take alone or share as a handout, not a live multiplayer game.
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer question types
- Explanations for each answer, so wrong picks still teach something
- Free plan: 3 generations a month, study in the browser
- Exports to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on Pro
Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions
Pick the question style that fits the material. Every question comes with an explanation of why the correct answer is right.
Built from your own material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Text recognition reads scanned pages so you can quiz yourself on handouts.
Export when you need to
The free plan studies in the browser. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
How it works
Add your material
Upload a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, notes or a photo of a page.
Choose the question types
Select multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions for the topic.
Take the quiz
Study in your browser, read the explanations, and retry the questions you missed.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, but no exports. If you need a printable or LMS-ready version, Plus ($99.90/year or $9.99/month) adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro ($14.99/month) adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. Students get 40% off with a school email.
Questions work best when each one tests a single idea and the explanation says why the wrong options are wrong. Generate from the chapter you are studying, check the questions against your source, then retake only the ones you missed.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a quiz on the French Revolution have?
Ten to twenty questions cover the main events, causes and figures for one unit. Shorter quizzes are easier to retake until the wrong answers stop appearing.
How should I study the questions I got wrong?
Read the explanation, then reread the section of your notes it came from. Retake the missed questions after a day or two rather than right away.
Is the free plan enough to try it?
The free plan gives 3 generations per month and browser study with no exports. No credit card is needed to start.
Which plan do I need for Moodle XML?
Moodle XML export is on the Pro plan at $14.99/month. Plus, at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, includes PDF and DOCX export but not Moodle.
