Frequently Asked Questions

Answers regarding document conversion and custom quiz generation.

How does the AI generate questions from my uploaded article?

We support a wide range of inputs for maximum convenience. You can upload PDFs, Microsoft Word files (DOCX), common image formats (like JPG or PNG of notes), or provide direct text input via prompt.

Can I export the resulting midterm quiz for offline use or LMS integration?

Yes. We provide versatile export options, including printable PDF and editable Word (DOCX) files. For structured learning environments, we also support exporting in QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML formats.

Is it free to generate quizzes from my documents?

We offer a generous free tier allowing users to test the power of document conversion. For heavy users or those needing access to our most advanced AI models and higher credit limits, a paid subscription plan is available.
