Frequently Asked Questions About AI Assessment Creation

Get clarity on how our tool functions, its capabilities, and plan options.

How does the AI generate the questions from my material?

The AI analyzes the textual and structural context of your uploaded documents (PDF, DOCX, etc.) or prompt input. It identifies key concepts, definitions, and relationships, then structures these into valid multiple-choice formats designed to test active recall.

What types of files can I upload to generate a custom quiz?

We support common academic formats including PDF documents, Microsoft Word (.docx) files, and image files (like JPG or PNG screenshots of slides). You can also simply type a topic prompt.

Can I export the final quiz for offline use or my Learning Management System (LMS)?

Yes, robust export functionality is a core feature. You can export quizzes into standard PDF, Microsoft Word (.docx), QTI 2.1 format, and Moodle XML for seamless integration.

Is the functionality to create an exam online truly free to use?

The basic functionality is free, allowing users to generate a limited number of quizzes or use fewer generation credits. For high-volume users or access to our most advanced AI models, a paid subscription plan is available.
