Turn Documents into Exams

Upload PDFs, Word documents, or PowerPoint slides directly. The AI contextually analyzes your specific course content to create highly relevant questions.

Deep Learning Assessments

Every question comes paired with detailed, expert-level explanations for every option, ensuring that failed attempts become powerful learning moments (explanation-based learning).

Maximum Format Flexibility

Practice interactively within the app, or export your finalized assessments in industry-standard formats: PDF, DOCX, QTI 2.1, and Moodle XML for offline use.

Harnessing this level of targeted generation is crucial for effective formative assessment and achieving true subject mastery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your queries about our document-to-quiz technology answered.

How does the AI generate questions from my documents?

The AI employs advanced NLP to segment text, identify definitions, principles, and relationships within your uploaded files (PDF, DOCX, etc.). It then generates plausible distractors for multiple-choice options and constructs detailed rationales explaining the correct choice based on the source context.

What file types can I upload to create a quiz?

We support uploading common educational file formats including PDF, DOCX (Word), and PowerPoint (PPTX). You can also upload images containing text or simply input a descriptive text prompt.

Can I export the generated quiz for use outside the app?

Absolutely. We offer comprehensive export options, including printable PDF, editable Word (DOCX), QTI 2.1 format (for interoperability), and Moodle XML, ensuring your practice materials fit any learning management system or offline study plan.

Is this advanced AI question generator free to use?
