Paste text, get a quiz — no file, no formatting
Sometimes the material isn’t a clean PDF — it’s a paragraph you typed, a passage from a textbook, or notes from a shared doc. A quiz maker that only accepts uploads makes you go find or create a file first. Pasting text skips that step entirely.
When pasting beats uploading
The text isn’t in a file yet
Notes in a chat message, a passage you retyped, a paragraph from a website — turning that into a PDF just to upload it is wasted time. Paste it directly instead.
You want exact control over the source
Pasting lets you trim to the exact paragraph or section you want questions from, instead of a whole document where only page 3 is relevant.
You’re writing questions yourself
If you already know the exact questions you want, hand-writing them is often faster than generating and editing — that option should exist alongside auto-generation.
How it works
- 1. Paste your text
Notes, a passage, an article — or upload a PDF/Word file if that’s what you have.
- 2. Set question count and difficulty
Match a quick check or a longer assessment.
- 3. Generate in about 10 seconds
Review, edit, or add hand-written questions before you share it.
- 4. Share one link
Students join by link or code, no accounts. Results come in live.

Make a quiz from textFrequently asked questions
Do I need a PDF, or can I just paste text?
Just paste. Drop in lesson notes, a passage, an article, or a study guide directly — no file, no formatting cleanup. You can also upload a PDF or Word file if that is easier.
How is this different from a regular quiz maker?
Most quiz makers start from a blank template — you still write every question. This starts from text you already have, so the questions match your actual lesson instead of a generic bank.
Can I write my own questions instead?
Yes. If you would rather have exact wording, you can write questions by hand instead of generating them from text — useful when a quiz needs to match specific phrasing.
What languages does it work in?
The quiz matches whatever language your text is in — 37+ languages supported — so it works for language classes and non-English content, not just English lessons.
Do students need accounts?
No. Students join with one link or a 6-digit code on any device. You see results live, by student and by question.
