Turn a video lesson into a practice quiz with AI
DeckOwl does not take video files. Paste the transcript or your notes from the lesson, or upload slides, and get a quiz with explanations.
How a video-to-quiz session works
Most lecture videos cannot be quizzed directly, but a video-to-quiz session works well once you have the text. Paste the transcript or your notes and DeckOwl writes questions that test the points the speaker actually made.
- Paste a transcript to keep questions tied to the lesson's wording
- Mix multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions in one set
- Read the explanation after every answer, right or wrong
- Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer
Each question includes an explanation so you learn why an answer is right, not just which one it is.
Built from your own material
Questions come from the transcript, notes, PDF, DOCX, PPTX or page photos you provide, not from generic content.
Export when you need it
Plus exports quizzes to PDF and DOCX. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
How it works
Get the lesson as text
Copy the video transcript, or type up the key points from your notes.
Upload or paste
Add the text, a PDF, slides or a photo of your pages. No credit card is needed to start.
Pick a format and study
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then work through the questions with their explanations.
Quizzing yourself soon after watching helps more than rewatching. Short-answer questions show gaps in recall, and the explanations point you back to the exact idea you missed.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a climate and weather quiz have?
Ten to fifteen questions covering one lesson is a good starting point. Shorter sets are easier to repeat until the answers feel automatic.
What is the difference between weather and climate for a quiz?
Weather describes short-term conditions like today's rain or wind, while climate is the average pattern over decades. Questions that ask you to distinguish the two are a good test of understanding.
Can I export the quiz to another tool?
PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are available on Pro at $14.99 per month.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you can start without a credit card.
