Trivia rounds that match what you taught

Trivia rounds keep a classroom engaged, but writing fresh questions by hand every week is slow. A pub quiz for teachers can start from the reading and slides you already prepared.

Rounds based on the lesson you just taught, not generic trivia.
Explanations after each answer for a quick debrief.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month with no credit card needed.
Export to PDF, DOCX, QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML on paid plans.

Built from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and the questions come from what you actually taught.

Three question types

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer, each with an explanation students can read after the round.

Export when you need it

Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro. The free plan keeps studying in the browser.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page.

Choose the question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer for each round.

Run the round

Review the generated questions and explanations, then read them out or share the quiz with your class.

Generic trivia sheets rarely connect to your unit, so students forget the answers by the next lesson. Building rounds from your own material means the general knowledge questions reinforce the content you are assessing.

Review each generated question before the round, since you know your class best. Explanations are there for the debrief, when you can ask students why the wrong answers were tempting.
