Frequently Asked Questions About AI Quiz Creation

Get answers about our AI's capabilities for extracting information from visual sources.

How does the AI generate questions from uploaded screenshots?

The system uses advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) combined with contextual language models. It identifies key entities, dates, concepts, and relationships within the image text to formulate high-quality questions reflective of expert-level knowledge checks.

What file types are supported for input besides images and screenshots?

We support standard document uploads including PDF, DOCX, and PowerPoint files. You can also simply type a descriptive prompt like 'Create a quiz on the causes of World War I' if you have no source files available.

Can I export the history quiz for offline learning?

Absolutely. You can export your AI-generated assessments in multiple professional formats: standard PDF, editable Word (DOCX), and specialized educational formats like QTI 2.1 or Moodle XML for integration into LMS platforms.

Is there a cost associated with generating quizzes from my history materials?

The tool offers a free tier with a limited number of generation credits. For heavy usage, advanced model access, or unlimited quiz creation, we offer a paid subscription plan.
