Frequently Asked Questions for Teachers

Answers regarding our AI generation process and compatibility.

How does the AI generate questions from my uploaded documents?

The AI utilizes advanced natural language processing (NLP) to analyze the semantic content of your file. It identifies key concepts, definitions, processes, and relationships, then formulates questions that test recall and application based on those extracted facts.

What types of files can I upload to create my custom teacher tests?

We support common educational formats including PDF documents, Microsoft Word (.docx), PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and standard image files (like JPG or PNG) containing legible text.

Can I export the custom quizzes I create for offline use?

Absolutely. You can export your finalized quizzes into multiple standard formats: PDF for printing, Word (.docx) for easy editing, QTI 2.1 (for broader assessment systems), and Moodle XML for direct integration into Moodle LMS.

Is this AI test maker completely free to use?

We offer a robust free tier that allows you to generate a limited number of high-quality quizzes using our standard AI model. Paid plans unlock significantly more generation credits and access to our more advanced, powerful AI model for even greater precision.
