Frequently Asked Questions About Text-Based Quiz Generation

Clarification on our AI engine, file compatibility, and accessibility.

How does the AI actually generate questions from text?

The AI utilizes advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify key concepts, relationships, definitions, and underlying principles within your input text. It then structures this information into valid multiple-choice formats, ensuring distractors (incorrect options) are plausible based on the source context.

What types of files can I upload to generate my quiz?

We support robust input types to meet various needs, including PDF documents, Microsoft Word (.docx) files, PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and common image formats (like JPG or PNG) containing text.

Can I export the quiz for offline use or use it in my LMS?

Absolutely. We offer comprehensive export options. You can download your quiz as a standard PDF or Word document for printing, or use the structured formats QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML to seamlessly import the assessment into various Learning Management Systems.

Is the tool free to use, or is a paid plan required for text generation?

The core functionality is available for free, allowing you to generate and practice with essential AI quizzes. Our paid plan offers access to our more advanced, powerful AI model and provides significantly more generation credits for high-volume users.
