How a free AI quiz maker works with your own material
Students and teachers who look for a free AI quiz maker usually want a Quizizz-style quiz built from their own readings, not generic questions pulled from the internet.

- Questions are generated from your own files, not a generic bank
- Multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer formats are available
- Every question comes with an explanation for the correct answer
- Start free with no credit card and 3 generations a month
