Turn your notes into general knowledge pub quiz questions
Ready-made quiz packs rarely match your crowd. Upload a PDF, slides or notes and DeckOwl writes multiple-choice, true/false or open questions with explanations for every answer.
Writing general knowledge pub quiz questions takes time
Hosting a quiz night means having a fresh round ready every week, and general knowledge pub quiz questions that fit your regulars are hard to find in printed books. Most ready-made packs repeat old facts, and they rarely cover the topics your crowd cares about.
- Pick a theme for each round, such as geography, science or film, and build questions from notes on that theme.
- Keep each question to a single fact so there is only one defensible answer.
- Read every explanation before the night so you can answer follow-up questions confidently.
- Mix multiple-choice, true/false and open questions to keep teams guessing.
Questions from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a page, and the questions come from what you provided.
Explanations for every answer
Each question includes a short explanation, so you can check answers quickly and settle disputes at the bar.
Export when you are ready
Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add the document, slides or photos that hold the facts you want to test.
Choose the question type
Pick multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, then generate the set.
Review and export
Check each question and explanation, edit anything that feels off, then export your round.
A better route is to start from material you already have. Upload the article, lecture slides or notes behind your round, and DeckOwl drafts questions with one clear answer and a short explanation. You can review each item, cut the ones that are too easy or too obscure, and mix in different question types for variety.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write general knowledge trivia questions with one clear answer?
Ask about a single fact, avoid wording that allows more than one correct answer, and check the answer against a reliable source. Asking for a specific name, date or place usually makes the answer easier to judge.
How hard should general knowledge pub quiz questions be?
Aim for a mix so that each round has a few easy questions to warm teams up and a few harder ones to separate them. Test the set on a friend first to see where the difficulty lands.
Can I export my quiz questions to Word or PDF?
Yes, PDF and DOCX export are included in the Plus plan, which is $39 per year or $7.99 per month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month.
Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
