Frequently Asked Questions About Our AI Quiz Tool

Understanding how our interactive MCQ generator works.

How does the AI generate high-quality questions from my documents?

The AI employs advanced natural language understanding (NLU) models trained on educational standards. It identifies key concepts, relationships, and critical details within your uploaded text or slides, translating these into contextually accurate multiple-choice questions with appropriate distractors.

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

We support robust ingestion of PDFs, Microsoft Word documents (DOCX), and PowerPoint files (PPTX). You can also upload images containing text or use our prompt interface for text-based input.

Can I export the generated quizzes for use outside the interactive mode?

Absolutely. We provide comprehensive export options to suit various educational workflows, including high-fidelity PDF, standard Word (DOCX), QTI 2.1 format, and Moodle XML.

Is the interactive practice mode free, or is it restricted to paid plans?

The core AI quiz generation functionality, including limited daily credits for the standard model, is free to use. Our paid plans unlock higher generation credit limits and access to our most advanced, nuanced AI model for superior quality analysis.
