Turn your own notes into a pub quiz for your NYC crowd
Skip the hours of writing rounds. Upload your material and get questions with answers and explanations you can check before the night.
Running a pub quiz night in New York City
Hosting a NYC pub quiz usually means hours spent writing rounds that are fair, varied and not just a list of facts from one book. DeckOwl lets you start from your own material and get a set of questions with answers and explanations to check.
- Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or a photo of a page
- Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions
- Read an explanation for every answer before you host
- Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Questions from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or a photo of a page and get questions based on what you gave it.
Mixed question types
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions so your rounds have variety in format and difficulty.
Explanations for the host
Every question includes an explanation, so you can settle disputes at the bar without looking up the answer.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page. Text is read from images automatically.
Pick question types
Select multiple-choice, true/false or open questions and set how many you want per round.
Review and run the round
Edit anything that feels off, then study or host from the browser. Exports are available on paid plans.
Good trivia rounds mix categories and difficulty. Ask for a blend of multiple-choice and true/false questions, then cut or reword the ones that feel too obscure before the night. Keep an eye on the answer key so every question has one clear answer.
