We support a wide variety of inputs essential for educators: PDF documents, Microsoft Word (.docx), PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and direct image uploads (like scanned worksheets or handwritten notes). You can also input text directly via prompt.

Can I export the generated summative quiz for offline use or LMS import?

Yes, flexibility is key. You can export your finalized assessment as a standard PDF or Word document. For seamless integration into learning management systems, we provide export options for QTI 2.1 format and Moodle XML.

Is the AI quiz generation tool free to use?

The tool is free to try, allowing you to experience the core functionality immediately. For heavy users, advanced model access, or those requiring higher volume generation credits, we offer a competitive paid subscription plan.
