Why draft trivia from your own material

Writing trivia by hand from a textbook chapter often takes longer than the quiz itself. A trivia maker web app can do the first draft: you upload the material and get questions with answers and explanations that you can review before you use them.

Questions are drawn from the material you upload, not generic lists
Multiple-choice, true/false and open questions with explanations
Free plan with three generations a month and no card needed to start
Students get 40% off Plus with a school email

Generate the full set

Reads your own material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page, and the questions come from what you actually wrote or were assigned.

Explanations on every answer

Each multiple-choice, true/false or short answer question includes an explanation, so a wrong guess teaches you something.

Study in the browser

The free plan lets you run your question sets right in the browser, with three generations a month to start.

How it works

Upload your source

Add a PDF, slide deck, document, or photo of notes. Text recognition reads the pages for you.

Choose a question type

Pick multiple choice, true/false or open questions, then generate a set from your material.

Quiz yourself

Work through the questions in the browser, check the explanations, and export the set on a paid plan.

If you were hoping for a ready-made printable trivia sheet, a custom one from your own material usually fits better, because the questions match the exact content you need to cover. DeckOwl reads PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages, then drafts multiple-choice, true/false or open questions.

Exports are a paid feature. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems. DeckOwl does not run live multiplayer rounds, so the question sets are for solo study, printed sheets, or import into your own tools.

Frequently asked questions

How many trivia questions should I make from one chapter?

Start with a set of 10 to 15 questions covering the main terms and ideas in the chapter, then add more on the topics you miss. Mixing multiple-choice and true/false questions makes the set more useful for review.

What makes a good wrong answer in a multiple-choice trivia question?

A good distractor is plausible for someone who has only partly learned the topic, such as a related term or a common mix-up. Avoid obviously silly options, because they test nothing.

Can I export my trivia questions to PDF?

Yes, PDF and DOCX export is included on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, and it is not available on the free plan. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export.

Does DeckOwl run live trivia games?

No. DeckOwl generates quiz questions with explanations that you study in the browser or export, and it does not host live multiplayer rounds.
