Make your first quiz

You give AI Quiz Maker something to read — your lesson notes, a textbook PDF, a web page, or just a topic — and it writes the questions, the answer key and an explanation for each one. You review it, and it's ready to share.

Before you start

  • A free account. It includes 20 quiz generations and needs no card.
  • Something to build the quiz from: text you can paste, a PDF or image, a link, or a topic in your head.
  1. 1

    Open the quiz maker

    From your dashboard, open a workspace and you land on New quiz. A workspace is just a folder for your quizzes — most teachers keep one per subject or per year group, and you can invite colleagues to it later.

  2. 2

    Choose what to build it from

    Pick the tab that matches what you have:

    • Text — paste your lesson plan, notes or a passage.
    • PDF — upload a chapter, worksheet or handout. For a worksheet you already use, choose Turn my worksheet into a quiz to keep its questions as written.
    • Image — a photo of a textbook page works; the text is read off it.
    • URL — paste a link to an article or web page.
    • Topic — type the topic, for example “the water cycle, Year 5”, and it writes from general knowledge.

    The more specific your material, the closer the questions land. Pasting your own notes gives you questions in the words your class has already heard.

    Teaching a standard? Include its code and description in the text, for example “CCSS.MATH.5.NF.1: add fractions with unlike denominators”, and the questions are written around it.

  3. 3

    Set how the quiz should look

    Choose the number of questions (up to 15 on the free plan, 50 on Pro), the difficulty, and the question types. You can use one type or mix several: multiple choice, multiple answer, true/false, short answer, fill in the blank, matching, ordering and FAQ.

    There’s also a language setting, so you can teach in one language and quiz in another. It covers over a hundred languages.

    Mixing two or three question types makes a quiz feel less like a form and gives you more to look at afterwards in the results.

  4. 4

    Generate, then read it before anyone else does

    Generating takes about a minute, and you land straight in the editor. Read every question before you share it. The AI is good, but it is writing about your material, not yours to trust blindly: check the answer keys and reword anything that doesn’t sound like you.

    Each generation counts as one of your 20 on the free plan. Editing, sharing, exporting and students taking your quiz never use another one.

Check the answer key on anything numeric

Questions about dates, quantities and calculations are where AI is most likely to slip. A second AI re-checks every answer after generating and flags disagreements with “Check this answer”, but it is a safety net, not a guarantee: two minutes reading the key now saves an awkward correction in front of a class.

Common questions

How many quizzes can I make for free?

The free plan includes 20 generations in total, not per month, and needs no card. Everything you make stays yours afterwards: you can keep editing, sharing and exporting those quizzes even after the 20 are used.

Does a generation get used if the quiz comes out badly?

Yes, each attempt counts. That is why it is worth being specific about the topic and pasting real material rather than a one-word prompt.

Can I make a quiz in another language?

Yes. Set the language in the quiz settings; over a hundred are supported. The material you paste can be in a different language from the questions.

What size PDF can I upload?

A chapter or handout is the right size. Very long PDFs are trimmed, so for a whole textbook you will get better questions by uploading one chapter at a time.
