Free · a real 5-question test, no account

Anyone can generate a quiz.
We make you learn it.

ChatGPT will write you ten questions and never find out whether you got better. We keep testing you until you know it — miss one and it's back in two days, then a week, until it's solid.

Traced word-for-word to your materialAnswers hidden until you commitRetake your misses on the spot
Practice testing and spacing it out are the two techniques Dunlosky et al. (2013) rated high utility ↗. This is both — the spacing schedule comes with Pro.

Why not just ask a chatbot?

Fair question. Three answers.

In a chat, the answers are already on screen

You can't test yourself on something you've already read. We hide them until you commit.

A chat can't swallow a whole book

Paste a long source into a chat and it loses the thread. We build the quiz from the whole document you drop — start to end.

A chat forgets what you got wrong

We keep score on this device. From your results, one tap re-drills exactly the questions you missed — nothing else.

Four steps: about a minute to build it, 7 minutes to take it

1
Drop your materialNotes, a PDF, a photo of the page, a YouTube lecture — or just a topic.
2
Sit the testPractice mode to learn, Rush mode when you want it to hurt.
3
See the patternNot just a score — exactly which questions you missed, with explanations.
4
Drill it againOne tap re-runs just the questions you missed. That's the whole trick.

Every kind of study material, and what we do with it

Turn a PDF or textbook into a quiz

Upload a chapter, a handout, or an exported slide deck. Questions are written from what's actually in the file — with correct answers and short explanations you can check against the source.

Turn a YouTube lecture into a quiz

Paste a link and we read the video's captions. If a video has no captions, paste the transcript from “Show transcript” — the quiz comes out the same.

Turn your own notes into a quiz

Paste lecture notes, a revision summary, or a wall of bullet points. Messy is fine. We test you on what your notes actually claim, not on what a language model thinks the topic is about — if it isn't in your text, it won't be in your quiz.

Photograph a page, or just name a topic

Snap a page of a library book with your phone and we read it. Or skip material entirely and type a topic — “Krebs cycle”, “Spanish preterite”, “AWS VPC peering” — and we build a test from general knowledge.

Who's using it

01

Students with an exam date

Rereading notes feels productive and isn't. One 7-minute test on the same material finds the gaps rereading hides. For AWS SAA you can drill by domain and get a readiness estimate against a target score.

02

People chasing a certification

Our AWS Solutions Architect Associate bank is hand-written and tagged to the four official exam-guide domains, so you can see which one is dragging your estimate down.

03

Teachers and trainers

20 questions from this week's reading in about a minute. Edit anything you don't like, send one link, get everyone's results back in a table. Export to CSV or Excel.

04

Anyone reading something serious

You finish a good book and three weeks later you can't summarise a chapter. One 7-minute test per chapter is the difference between having read it and actually knowing it.

How we write questions — and why most AI quizzes are bad

Ask any chatbot for a quiz and you get the same failure: questions about the text rather than about the ideas. “Which of the following was mentioned in chapter four?” tests whether you skimmed, not whether you understood. The wrong answers are obviously wrong. You score 19 out of 20 and learn nothing.

Every one of the 48 questions in our SAA-C03 bank was written and hand-checked by us, not generated. That is the standard the generator has to hit, and it follows three rules on every question.

1Every wrong answer is a real mistake someone makes. Distractors come from adjacent concepts in your own material, not from invented nonsense.
2Every answer comes with the why. Correct or wrong, you get a short explanation you can check against your material.
3Coverage over trivia. Questions spread across the material's ideas instead of clustering on the first page.

Questions you disagree with can be edited or deleted before you share the quiz.

A bad questionWhich of the following is discussed in Chapter 4?
Habits and cues
The French Revolution
Marine biology
Anyone can answer this without reading.
A good oneA nurse spots a heart attack before any test confirms it. Which idea does this illustrate?
Experience turns cues into instinct
Habits form through conscious repetition
Both are plausible. Only one is right.

Why testing beats rereading — the boring science behind this

Rereading is the most popular study method and one of the least effective. It creates fluency — the text feels familiar, so you assume you know it — without creating recall. The moment the page is gone, so is the knowledge. Psychologists call the gap between feeling prepared and being prepared the illusion of competence, and it is the single most common reason people are surprised by their own exam results.

Retrieval works differently. Pulling an answer out of your own head — with no text in front of you — strengthens the path back to it. The effort is the point: a question you nearly get wrong teaches you far more than a paragraph you read twice. This is the testing effect, and it holds across decades of studies on everything from vocabulary to medicine.

Both claims come from Dunlosky et al., “Improving Students’ Learning With Effective Learning Techniques” (2013) ↗

Hide the answer

Nothing on screen until you commit. That's what makes it retrieval rather than recognition.

Re-drill the misses

One tap re-runs exactly the questions you got wrong — the highest-value minutes in any study session.

Explanations that teach

Every answer explains itself, so a wrong pick becomes the moment you actually learn the idea.

What you actually get

A real exam gets a real numberThe AWS SAA-C03 bank scores you by domain against a target derived from the exam guide’s published scaled pass mark, so "am I ready" has an answer.

Flashcard apps are excellent, and so is asking a chatbot for ten questions on a short article. The difference here is that the test is sat, scored, and remembered.

Questions people ask

Is QuizGen free?

Playing is free forever — any shared or published quiz, full score, no account. Paste your own material and a real 5-question test comes back on the spot, still with no account, up to 2 a day. A free account raises that to 20 questions and keeps your first test; Pro makes it unlimited.

How accurate are the questions?

Questions are generated from your material with explanations you can check. Edit or delete any question you disagree with before sharing.

What file types can I upload?

PDF, PNG, JPG, and WebP images of pages. Paste any text. Video by YouTube link (captions).

How long does it take?

Building the test takes about a minute for a chapter or a set of notes. Sitting it takes about 7 minutes at the default 20 questions.

Can I use it in a language other than English?

Questions come back in the language of your material by default — or ask for a different one in the prompt.

Can I share a quiz with my class?

Send one link. Players don't need an account; if you collect results you get them in a table with CSV export.

Is my material private?

Quizzes are reachable only by their link unless you share it. We never list your quiz anywhere.

Why not just ask ChatGPT for a quiz?

You can, and for ten questions on a short article it's fine. What it can't do is hide the answers, keep a score, or remember which three you got wrong last Tuesday.

Find out what you actually remember.

One chapter, 7 minutes. Your first test — 5 real questions — comes back with no account. If it’s bad you’ll know in 2 minutes and you’ll have lost nothing.
