Writing trivia that fits your talk

Presenters who run a quiz between talking points usually want questions that match what the room just heard. A trivia maker for presenters works best when it starts from your own slides, so every question traces back to material you can point to.

  • Keep each question to one clearly correct answer.
  • Mix easy openers with harder questions near the end.
  • Read the explanation aloud after each reveal to reinforce the point.
  • Check the set before the talk, since generated questions can need light edits.

Answers with explanations

Every question includes the correct answer and a short explanation, so each reveal is quick to read aloud and easy to check.

Export when you need it

The Plus plan adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for classroom platforms.

How it works

Upload your deck or notes

Add slides, a PDF, a DOCX file, or photos of handouts.

Pick a question type

Choose multiple choice, true/false, or open questions for your round.

Present and reveal

Read each question aloud, then show the answer and explanation from the set.

DeckOwl is built around studying, so its questions come with explanations and can be reviewed in the browser before you go on stage. Remove anything too obscure for your audience and keep the strongest items for the round.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a presenter trivia round include?

Most rounds work well with five to ten questions, which leaves room for discussion between them. Adjust the count to fit the time you have on stage.

How do I write trivia questions that connect to a talk?

Pull questions from the key claims, dates, and terms on your slides rather than background details. Ask one thing per question and make the wrong answers plausible.

Can I export the questions to PDF or DOCX?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export are part of the Plus plan, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan to try first?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month, and no credit card is needed to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
