Manual Builder

The drag-and-drop quiz builder lets you add questions one by one. Supported question types include multiple choice (single or multi-select), true/false, short answer, and long-form theory questions. You can add images to questions, set point values per question, and reorder questions freely.

Importing from Files

Bulk-import questions from Markdown, CSV, TXT, or DOCX files. Each format follows a simple structure:

question,option_a,option_b,option_c,option_d,answer
"What is 2+2?","3","4","5","6","B"
"Capital of France?","Berlin","Madrid","Paris","Rome","C"

Supported formats: .md .csv .txt .docx

Importing from Google Forms / Microsoft Forms

Paste a shareable link from Google Forms or Microsoft Forms and Quizly will automatically import the questions, options, and correct answers. After import, you can edit any question before publishing. Note: only quiz-type forms with scoring enabled are supported.

AI-Powered Quiz GenerationPro / Enterprise

Describe a topic or paste study material, and Quizly's AI will generate relevant questions with correct answers. You can specify the number of questions, difficulty level, and question types. All AI-generated questions are editable before publishing.

Proctoring Options

Enable proctoring to monitor test integrity. When turned on, test takers must grant camera and screen access before starting. Available proctoring features include:

• Webcam recording -- continuous video capture throughout the exam session.
• Tab-switch detection -- logs when a test taker navigates away from the quiz tab, with configurable maximum allowed switches.
• Full-screen enforcement -- requires the browser to remain in full-screen mode during the exam.
• Copy/paste blocking -- disables clipboard actions within the quiz interface.

Automatic MCQ Scoring

Multiple choice, true/false, and short-answer questions with exact matches are graded instantly upon submission. Scores are calculated based on the point value assigned to each question. Test takers see their results immediately if the quiz owner has enabled instant feedback.

AI Theory GradingPro / Enterprise

Long-form and theory questions can be graded by AI. The system evaluates answers against the model answer or rubric you provide, assigning a score and generating feedback. AI grades are marked as provisional until you approve or adjust them.

Manual Review & Grading

For any question type, you can manually review and override grades. The grading interface shows the question, expected answer, and the test taker's response side by side. Add written feedback to individual answers to help test takers learn from their mistakes.

Dispatching Results

Once grading is complete, dispatch results to all test takers with a single click. Each taker receives an email with their score, grade breakdown, and any feedback you have added. You can also choose to withhold results and release them at a specific date and time.

Enabling Certificates

Toggle certificate issuance in your quiz settings. Set a minimum passing score (e.g., 70%) that test takers must achieve to receive a certificate. Certificates are generated automatically after results are dispatched.

Customizing Templates

Customize the certificate appearance with your organization's name, logo, colors, and a signature. Choose from built-in templates or upload a custom background image. The test taker's name, quiz title, score, and completion date are populated automatically.

Verification URLs

Every certificate includes a unique verification URL that third parties can use to confirm its authenticity. The verification page displays:

Revoking Certificates

If you discover academic dishonesty or need to invalidate a certificate for any reason, you can revoke it from your dashboard. Revoked certificates will show a "Revoked" status on the verification page. The test taker is notified via email when a certificate is revoked.

Uploading PDFs & Documents

Attach study materials to any quiz so test takers can prepare before attempting the exam. Supported file types include PDF, DOCX, PPTX, and plain text files. Each quiz supports up to 10 attachments with a maximum file size of 25 MB per file.

Adding YouTube / Vimeo Videos

Paste a YouTube or Vimeo URL to embed video content directly in the study materials section. Videos are displayed in an embedded player so test takers can watch without leaving the platform. You can add multiple videos and reorder them as needed.

Tracking Completion

When study materials are attached to a quiz, you can optionally require test takers to mark materials as "completed" before they are allowed to start the quiz. The analytics dashboard shows which takers have viewed each material and their completion status.

Free Tier

The free plan includes unlimited quiz creation with up to 50 responses per quiz, basic analytics, and manual grading. Free accounts can use all question types and basic proctoring features. Study materials and certificates are available on free plans with limited customization.

Monthly Plans

Upgrade to a paid plan for higher response limits, advanced analytics, AI features, and priority support. Plans are billed monthly and can be cancelled at any time:

One-Time Purchases

Some features are available as one-time purchases instead of recurring subscriptions. For example, you can purchase additional AI grading credits or additional response slots for a single quiz without upgrading your entire plan.

AI Feature AccessPro / Enterprise

AI-powered features including quiz generation, theory grading, and smart analytics are available on Pro and Enterprise plans. Each plan includes a monthly AI credit allocation. Additional credits can be purchased separately if needed.
