Six question types

Real exam variety,
not just multiple-choice.

Real exams aren't all MC. Sia mixes question types the way actual exams do — and grades the open-ended ones for you.

Multiple choice
Single best answer with plausible distractors. Sia generates distractors from common student mistakes — not "obviously wrong" filler.
MC · 1 of N
Multi-select
"Select all that apply." Tests deeper understanding because you can't guess your way through partial credit.
MULTI · 2+ of N
Free response
Open-ended written answer. Auto-graded against the rubric with partial credit and concept-level feedback on what you got and what you missed.
FRQ · auto-graded
Show your work
Math/science problems graded for both final answer and method. Sia inspects each step and gives method credit even when the final number is off.
SHOW WORK · math
True / False + reasoning
Not just T/F — Sia asks you to justify, then grades the reasoning. Beats 50/50 guessing.
T/F + WHY
Matching
Drag concepts to definitions, terms to examples, dates to events. Great for vocab-heavy subjects.

FAQ

Frequently asked
questions.

What is AskSia Quiz Generator?
AskSia Quiz Generator auto-creates exam-grade adaptive quizzes from any input — PDFs, Word, PowerPoint, scanned handwriting, audio, video, YouTube, podcasts. It generates a mix of multiple-choice, multi-select, free-response, show-your-work, true/false, and matching questions; adapts difficulty during the quiz (CAT-style); auto-grades free response with partial credit; and offers Mock Exam mode for SAT, ACT, AP, IB, GCSE, A-Level, and college course styles.
How is AskSia different from Kahoot, Quizizz, or Quizlet test mode?
Three big differences. (1) Auto-generated from your material: Kahoot/Quizizz are blank — you write every question, or download crowdsourced quizzes that may not match your material. AskSia generates the whole quiz from your actual textbook/lecture in 20 seconds. (2) Question variety + adaptive difficulty: AskSia produces six question types and adjusts difficulty during the quiz; Kahoot/Quizizz are MC-only and fixed. (3) Auto-graded free response: AskSia grades FRQs and show-your-work with partial credit and concept-level feedback — Kahoot/Quizizz/Quizlet can't grade open-ended at all.
What question types does AskSia generate?
Six types, auto-mixed: (1) Multiple-choice — single best answer with plausible distractors; (2) Multi-select — "select all that apply"; (3) Free-response — open-ended, auto-graded with partial credit; (4) Show-your-work — math/science problems graded for method and final answer; (5) True/False with reasoning; (6) Matching — concepts to definitions, terms to examples.
How does adaptive difficulty work?
AskSia uses CAT-style (Computerized Adaptive Testing) logic — the same family of algorithms behind the GRE and the digital SAT. Sia starts at a medium difficulty calibrated to your subject; if you get a question right, the next is harder; wrong, easier. Each question's difficulty also lets Sia narrow in on your true ability faster than a fixed-form quiz, so a 12-question adaptive quiz can be more diagnostic than a 30-question fixed quiz.
Can AskSia auto-grade free-response answers?
Yes. For written free response, Sia compares your answer against the reference rubric and assigns partial credit at the concept level — explaining what you got right, what you missed, and which concept to review. For show-your-work math/science questions, Sia inspects each step, gives method credit even when the final answer is wrong, and points out the exact line where things went off.
Can it make exam-style mock tests?
Yes. Switch on Mock Exam mode and pick a target style — SAT, ACT, AP (any subject), IB HL/SL, GCSE, A-Level, or a major college course. Sia generates a quiz that matches that exam's question patterns, weighting, time limits, and difficulty distribution. The output is closer to the real exam than crowd-sourced practice quizzes.
Can I generate a quiz from a YouTube video or lecture?
Yes. Paste a YouTube URL or drop in a lecture audio/video file. Sia transcribes the audio, identifies testable claims, and builds a quiz with timestamps preserved on every question — wrong answers link back to the exact moment in the video where the concept appears.
Can I export the quiz?
Yes. Export to Kahoot, Google Forms, Schoology, Canvas LMS, Quizizz, Microsoft Forms, and printable PDF. Mock-exam-mode quizzes can be exported with answer keys and rubrics for use in classroom settings.
Does it show me what I got wrong and why?
Every wrong answer comes with a concept-level explanation and a link to the exact source page (or video timestamp) where the topic is taught. The post-quiz dashboard groups your misses by topic and gives you a one-tap shortcut to generate a flashcard set or Sia Note focused on that weak spot.
Is AskSia Quiz available on mobile?
Yes — Web, iOS, Android. The mobile app is great for on-the-go review quizzes; the Web app is better for full timed mock exams where you want a bigger screen and a real keyboard for free response.
How much does it cost?
Free to start, no credit card. Free accounts include daily quiz generation and unlimited retakes. AskSia Pro and Super unlock unlimited generation, full Mock Exam mode for all major exam styles, free-response auto-grading at scale, and detailed analytics.
Is my data private?
Yes. Uploaded files, generated quizzes, and your answers are encrypted in transit and at rest, never sold, and not used to train AI models without explicit opt-in. Quizzes are private to your account by default.
