Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common queries about using AI to generate quizzes from your documents.

How does the AI generate questions from my uploaded files?

The AI uses advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) models to analyze the semantic meaning, relationships, and key concepts within your uploaded text or image data. It then formulates questions that test comprehension and application based on that context, ensuring high fidelity to your source material.

What file formats can I use to generate my multiple choice quiz?

We support major educational and document formats for maximum convenience. You can upload PDFs, Microsoft Word documents (DOCX), PowerPoint presentations (PPTX), and common image files (JPG, PNG) containing text.

Can I export the AI-generated quiz for my Learning Management System (LMS)?

Yes. Beyond standard PDF and Word exports, we support exporting quizzes in industry-standard assessment formats, specifically QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML, allowing seamless integration into Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and other platforms.

Is the AI quiz generation tool free to use?

We offer a free tier that allows users to test the core functionality and generate a limited number of quizzes using our standard AI model. For unlimited generation credits and access to our most advanced, high-context AI model, a paid subscription is available.
