Writing a round from scratch takes longer than the quiz itself

Hosting a pub quiz in Urmston usually means writing fresh general knowledge questions every week, and most hosts end up doing it the night before. DeckOwl speeds that up by turning material you already have into a question set with answers and explanations.

  • Works from PDFs, slides, notes and photos of pages
  • Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations
  • Edit and cut questions before the night
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, and QTI or Moodle XML on Pro
Example general knowledge trivia questions for a pub quiz
Which is the largest planet in the solar system?Jupiter. It is more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined.
What is the capital of Australia?Canberra. It was purpose-built as the capital, so it is not the largest city, which is Sydney.
True or false: honey never spoils.True. Edible honey has been found in ancient Egyptian tombs, because its low moisture and acidity resist bacteria.
Which river flows through central Manchester?The River Irwell. It runs through the city centre and joins the River Mersey further west.
Which element has the chemical symbol Na?Sodium. The symbol comes from its Latin name, natrium.

Questions from your material

Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page and get questions drawn from that exact content.

Three question types

Choose multiple-choice, true/false or open questions, or mix them so the round has variety.

Explanations for the host

Every question comes with a short explanation, so you can settle disputes at the bar without looking anything up.

How it works

Add your material

Upload your trivia list, themed notes or slides, or paste the text in directly.

Generate and check

Pick the question types and review the drafts, editing anything that is unclear or too obscure.

Run the round

Study or present the questions in the browser, or export them as a file for printing or sharing.

The useful part is control. You decide the source, whether that is a themed notes document, a list of facts you collected or a set of slides, and the generated questions stay tied to that content. You can then cut weak questions, reword confusing ones and keep the strongest for the round.

DeckOwl does not supply a ready-made printable sheet of pub quiz questions. It builds a custom set from the material you give it. The free plan lets you study in the browser, PDF and DOCX export are part of Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are part of Pro.

Frequently asked questions

How do I write fair general knowledge trivia questions?

Ask one clear question with one correct answer, and avoid trick wording or answers that depend on regional knowledge most of the room will not have. Check every fact against a reliable source before the night.

How should I split a pub quiz into rounds?

There is no fixed rule, but most hosts group questions into themed rounds so no single topic dominates the evening. Mixing easy and harder questions within each round keeps teams engaged.

Can I export my pub quiz questions to Word?

Yes, DOCX export is included on the Plus plan, which also covers PDF export. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on the Pro plan.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, which includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser.
