Turn your notes into a quiz competition with AI
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions with explanations you can run as a review contest.
How an online quiz competition creator fits into review
A review contest works best when every question comes from the material students were actually assigned, not from a generic bank. DeckOwl works as an online quiz competition creator by turning your PDFs, slides or notes into questions with answer choices and explanations.
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer question types
- Explanations written for each answer, useful for debriefing
- Source-based questions from PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text or images
- Exports to PDF and DOCX on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Questions from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from what your class actually studied.
Explanations for every answer
Each multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer question includes an explanation, so the round doubles as teaching.
Export for your class
Download PDF or DOCX on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro to load the quiz into your learning system.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, document or set of notes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.
Generate the question set
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short-answer questions and generate the set in one pass.
Run the competition
Review the questions, then play them in your own class, live or as a timed quiz, and use the explanations to debrief.
DeckOwl generates the question set but does not host a live game, so you run the contest yourself. Mix easy recall questions with a few application questions, and use the explanations to settle disputes at the end of each round.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month, with study in the browser and no exports. Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning systems.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between perfect competition and monopolistic competition?
Perfect competition has many sellers offering identical products, and each firm is a price taker. Monopolistic competition also has many sellers, but each offers a differentiated product and has some power to set its price.
How many questions should a competition round include?
Rounds of 10 to 20 questions are usually enough to cover one topic without running long. Keep the set to what students studied so the round tests learning rather than trivia.
Can I export the questions to Moodle?
Moodle XML export is included on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. Plus includes PDF and DOCX export, and the free plan does not include exports.
Is there a free plan to try it?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.
