Frequently Asked Questions About AI Assessment Generation

Get clarity on how our tool ensures compatibility and quality for your educational needs.

How does the AI ensure questions accurately reflect my uploaded course materials?

The AI utilizes sophisticated semantic analysis to identify core concepts, definitions, and relationships within the source text (PDFs, DOCX, etc.). It prioritizes data extraction based on content density and explicit headings to mirror the structure of expert-level knowledge checks.

What specific file formats can I upload to generate my assessment?

We support robust ingestion from standard academic formats including PDF, Microsoft Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPT), and various image file types (PNG, JPG) for scanned documents. You can also simply type a detailed prompt.

How is this test generator 'Canvas compatible'?

Compatibility is guaranteed through industry-standard export options. We provide direct exports in QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML formats, which are the established protocols for importing quizzes directly into Canvas and other compatible LMS environments without manual reformatting.

What is the difference between the free plan and the paid subscription?

The free tier allows you to experience the core generation capabilities with a limited number of credits. The paid plan unlocks higher generation credit limits and grants access to our most advanced, nuanced AI model for superior question complexity and contextual understanding.
