Re-reading your notes feels like studying. It is not. The thing that moves knowledge into your head is being asked a question you cannot immediately answer, and then finding out why you were wrong.
This turns whatever you are revising into that test. Paste the notes, or hand it a PDF, and you get multiple-choice questions written from your material — not from the internet — with the answer and the reasoning hidden until you commit.

Turn your notes into practice questions
Paste your notes, or drop in a PDF. You get exam-style multiple-choice questions with the reasoning behind every answer, so you find out what you actually know.
The longer runs cost us money to answer, so this is the trade: your email address, and the HOW TO // AI newsletter once a week. Unsubscribe any time.
Free, no sign-up. We keep nothing you paste in: it goes to the model and comes straight back to you.
Turning a PDF into a quiz
Choose the PDF and it is read in your browser: the text is pulled out on your own machine and only that text is sent to be turned into questions. The file itself never leaves your computer and nothing is stored at either end.
One limit worth knowing: a PDF that is a photograph of a page — a scan, or a screenshot saved as a PDF — has no text in it to read. If the tool tells you the file is empty, that is why. Copy the text in by hand, or run the scan through any OCR tool first.
Exam style or quick recall
Quick recall asks you what a thing is. Good for vocabulary, definitions and the first pass through new material.
Exam style gives you a short scenario and asks what you would do. This is how real certification exams are written, and it is much harder, because knowing the definition of a storage class does not tell you which one to pick for a workload that is read twice a year.
If you are revising for an exam, start with recall and switch to exam style a week in. The gap between your scores on the two is the part you have memorised but cannot use yet.
Why every answer comes with reasoning
A right answer on its own teaches you almost nothing. What teaches you is why the answer you nearly picked is wrong, because that is where the misunderstanding lives. Every question here explains both, in a sentence or two.
It also means you can catch the tool out. Questions are written from your notes only, so if an explanation says something your material does not, you have found either a gap in your notes or a bad question. Both are useful.
Studying for a certification?
Questions from your own notes can only test what you wrote down, which is the one thing every study plan gets wrong: you do not know what you left out. For the AI certifications we cover, we have written question banks against the published exam objectives, and the first five of every set are free.
Start with the free practice questions, and if you have not settled on an exam yet, the ranked guide to AI certifications is the place to begin. The study plan generator will tell you how to spread the hours once you have chosen.
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes, with no account and no card. There is a limit of four sets of questions per person per day, which stops the bill running away and is more than enough for a study session.
Do you keep my notes?
No. Your text is sent to the model, the questions come back, and nothing is written down at our end. PDFs are read in your browser and never uploaded.
How much text can I give it?
Around 12,000 characters, which is roughly 15 pages or a long chapter. Longer than that and it is better to split the material by topic anyway, because questions drawn from one subject at a time are sharper.
Can it make questions for an exam I have not got notes for?
Not from nothing, and you should be glad: questions invented without source material are how people end up revising things that are not on the exam. For the certifications we cover, use our own question banks instead.
