Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common queries about using our AI for assessment creation.

How does the AI generate questions from my materials?

The AI employs advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify core concepts, learning objectives, and factual data points within your uploaded documents. It then frames these concepts as multiple-choice items, ensuring question relevance and cognitive depth based on the source context.

What types of files can I upload?

We support common educational formats including PDF, DOCX, PowerPoint (.pptx), and various image files (PNG, JPG). You can also input text directly via prompt if you prefer not to upload a file.

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

Absolutely. We support exporting assessments to several crucial formats: PDF, Word (DOCX), QTI 2.1 (compatible with most major LMS platforms like Canvas and Blackboard), and Moodle XML.

Is the AI quiz maker free to try?

Yes, the core functionality is available completely free, giving teachers access to essential AI quiz generation capabilities using a set number of initial credits. Higher generation volumes and access to our most advanced AI model require upgrading to a paid plan.
