SimpleQuizMaker for Teachers

A weekly classroom workflow that takes 15 minutes

The teachers who get the most out of SimpleQuizMaker fold it into the same routine every week. Saturday morning, coffee, 15 minutes:

1. 5 minutes: Upload the chapter PDF or paste the lecture notes for the upcoming week.
2. 3 minutes: Generate the quiz (10–15 questions, Medium difficulty, Multiple Choice + 2 Short Answer).
3. 5 minutes: Review every question. Edit any with a weak distractor. Verify negative-phrased items.
4. 2 minutes: Schedule or share. Assign in Google Classroom or copy the link to your LMS.

The hour-and-a-half you used to spend writing the quiz becomes 15 minutes. Multiply by 36 school weeks and you've recovered the equivalent of 2 full work weeks per year.

Built for the way teachers actually work

Every grade level, every subject

We maintain 36 dedicated subject generators — from elementary through college, math through literature. Each one is calibrated to the curriculum and difficulty expectations of its subject and grade band. See the full list at /quiz-subjects.

AP, IB, and exam prep

For AP teachers: ask for “AP-style” in the topic field and the AI produces College Board-aligned questions. AP quiz generator. For SAT/ACT prep teachers: dedicated SAT and ACT generators with section-specific question types.

Differentiation in seconds, not hours

Generate three versions of the same quiz at different difficulty levels — Easy for students who need scaffolding, Medium for the class baseline, Hard for accelerated learners. Each version takes 30 seconds. See differentiated quizzes without extra hours.

Honest analytics — not vanity metrics

The dashboard shows what actually matters: per-question difficulty (item difficulty), discrimination (does the question separate strong from weak students?), and per-student score patterns. Use the data to revise weak questions and identify students who need a one-on-one conversation. See quiz analytics for what the dashboard reports, and the teacher's guide to quiz analytics for how to read it.

Integrations that fit your existing stack

• Google Classroom — assignment creation and grade sync (Student plan). Setup guide
• Canvas, Schoology, Moodle, Blackboard — no native integration: post the quiz link in your course, or on the Student plan export QTI to import the questions and CSV to bring scores into your gradebook.
• Microsoft Teams, Zoom — no native integration: post the quiz link in a meeting chat or share at the end of class. Participants take it with no student accounts.
• CSV export (Student plan) — every gradebook accepts CSV. Manual but universal.

Pedagogically responsible by design

We've written extensively on the pedagogical question of AI-generated quizzes. The short version: AI is a productivity tool, like a calculator. The teacher's judgement still matters most — what to test, how to structure the assessment, when to use it formatively vs summatively.

Pricing built for school budgets

Most teachers we talk to are paying for tools out of pocket. The free tier — 5 AI generations per month, unlimited students per quiz, no credit card — is enough for a weekly classroom quiz workflow on a single subject. The Student plan ($2.99/mo, often expensable through a school PD or technology budget) unlocks 25 AI generations per month, longer quizzes, full analytics, and student progress tracking. See pricing.

What we built it to fix

We don't publish testimonials. These are the problems SimpleQuizMaker is designed to solve:

• · Cut the Friday quiz from an hour-plus of writing to a few minutes of generating and reviewing.
• · Make differentiated versions of a quiz without losing another evening.
• · Surface misleading distractors through per-question analytics, so they don't mislead students for a year.
• · Let students take quizzes without creating accounts.
