Why explanations matter in a live quiz

A Menti-style online quiz maker is most useful when the questions come from the material your audience has actually seen. Polling tools like Mentimeter work well for quick checks, but writing good questions from scratch takes time, especially before a class or training session.

Generate the full set

Questions from your own material

Start from the lecture deck, handout or notes you already have. The quiz is built from your content, not a generic question bank.

Explanations on every question

Each question includes an explanation of why the correct answer is right, so a missed item becomes a short lesson rather than just a red mark.

Three question formats

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, depending on whether you want quick checks or deeper recall before a live session.

How it works

Upload your slides or notes

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of printed pages. Text in photos is read with text recognition.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and generate the set from your material.

Review, then run it live

Check the questions and explanations, then use them in your own polling or review session. Exports are available on paid plans.

Explanations make the difference after the vote. When the answer is revealed, a one-sentence reason helps people who guessed correctly understand why, and helps those who did not see the gap in their understanding.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write good multiple-choice questions for a live poll?

Keep one clear correct answer and make the distractors plausible, such as common misconceptions from the topic. Avoid options like all of the above, because they make the question easy to guess in a room full of people.

What makes a quiz question worth asking a live audience?

A good question tests one idea from the material and can be answered in a few seconds. Follow it with a short explanation so the reveal teaches something, not just shows a percentage.

Can I export my quiz to Moodle or QTI?

Exports are paid features. PDF and DOCX export are on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro.

Is there a free plan to try it?
