Can't join class online? Turn your own notes into an AI quiz
Live quiz codes belong to your teacher's session. DeckOwl creates practice quizzes from the material you already have, with explanations for every answer.
What DeckOwl can and cannot do for a class quiz
If you are trying to join class with a quiz code, that code belongs to your teacher's session, so DeckOwl cannot open it for you. What it does is turn your own study material into a quiz you can practice on your own time.
- Works from notes, slides, and scanned pages
- Multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer questions
- Explanations for every answer, right or wrong
- Free plan with 3 generations per month and no card needed

Retake the questions you missed after a day, read the explanation for each wrong answer, and move on only once you can answer the set without notes.
