  • Save faculty dozens of hours on item banking and answer key generation.

Leverage this technology for expert-level assessment creation, moving beyond the limitations of static, generic test banks that fail to address specialized departmental needs.

Frequently Asked Questions for Educators

Answers regarding integration, output, and model performance.

How does the AI generate questions and explanations?

The AI uses advanced natural language understanding (NLU) to identify core concepts, definitions, application scenarios, and critical thinking points within your uploaded material. It then constructs questions targeting these elements, ensuring distractors are plausible but incorrect based on the source context.

What types of files can I upload to create a specialized quiz?

We support nearly all standard academic formats. You can upload PDFs, DOCX files, PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and even image files (.jpg, .png) containing text or diagrams that require assessment.

Can I export the resulting assessment package for my Learning Management System (LMS)?

Absolutely. We support export to PDF for printing, DOCX for editing, and crucial machine-readable formats: QTI 2.1 (the industry standard) and Moodle XML, ensuring seamless import into most institutional platforms.

Is this quiz creator platform free to try, or is a subscription required for full functionality?

The platform offers a generous free tier allowing initial use and testing of the AI generation capabilities. For unlimited generation credits and access to the most advanced processing model, users can upgrade to our paid subscription plans.
