What our research says

PDFToQuiz

PDFToQuiz does one job, turning a document into a graded quiz, and does it across more input formats than most competitors, including URLs and slides, not just PDFs. The free tier's 5-page limit is tight enough that most real course material will hit the Pro paywall fast.

Pros

  • Accepts PDF, Word, PowerPoint, URL and plain text as input
  • Explains wrong answers instead of just marking them incorrect
  • Supports more than 40 languages

Cons

  • Free tier's 5-page limit is too small for most full documents
  • No company name or location disclosed

Quillionz

Quillionz is a mature product from an established eLearning company rather than a solo indie tool, and direct Canvas and Moodle integration makes it more deployable inside existing school infrastructure than a standalone quiz generator. The pricing structure is split oddly across monthly, quarterly and two different annual plans, so it is worth comparing the actual question caps before picking a tier.

Pros

  • Backed by an established eLearning company with a named headquarters
  • Direct Canvas integration and Moodle LTI support
  • REST API available for institutional integration

Cons

  • Pricing tiers overlap confusingly between monthly, quarterly and two annual options
  • Free trial is time-limited rather than an ongoing free plan
