Turn your own notes into multiple choice test questions with AI
Turn your PDFs, slides or notes into multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions, each with an explanation. No credit card needed to start.
Printable tests, built from your own material
Teachers and tutors often want a multiple choice test generator that produces printable copies, but a generic question bank rarely matches what was covered in class this week.
- Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or a photo of a page
- Choose multiple choice, true/false, or short answer questions
- Every question includes an explanation for the correct answer
- Export a printable PDF on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Upload what you already have
Add PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or a photo of a page read with text recognition.
Explanations on every answer
Each multiple choice, true/false or short answer question comes with an explanation of why the answer is correct.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for a printable copy.
How it works
Upload your material
Start with a lecture PDF, slide deck, or notes you typed or photographed.
Choose a question type
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, and set how many questions you want.
Study or export
Work through the questions in your browser, or export a printable test on Plus.
DeckOwl does not hand you a ready-made printable sheet. You upload your own PDF, slides, DOCX, notes or a photo of a page, choose multiple choice, true/false or short answer, and get questions with explanations that match your material. The free plan gives you 5 generations a week and lets you study in the browser, but it does not include exports.
Plus, at $99.90 a year or $9.99 a month, adds unlimited generations and PDF export, so you can print the test. Pro, at $14.99 a month, adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems. Students get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions
How many multiple choice questions should a Spanish food vocabulary quiz have?
Ten to fifteen questions cover a good amount of vocabulary without overwhelming a short session. Build each quiz around one unit so the words stay connected.
How do I write good wrong answers for multiple choice vocabulary?
Use other words from the same category, such as different fruits or different meats, so the correct choice depends on knowing the exact term. Avoid obviously silly distractors, because they let you guess without studying.
Can I print the test if I use the free plan?
The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports. PDF export is included with Plus, which costs $99.90 a year or $9.99 a month.
Does DeckOwl need a credit card to start?
No, you can start without a credit card. Students also get 40% off with a school email.
