PPT to quiz with AI: turn slides into a live game in minutes

Stop rebuilding lecture decks into question banks by hand. With an AI quiz generator you can drop in a PowerPoint and walk into class with a ready-to-play live game.

Why use an AI quiz generator for PPTs?

Teachers, trainers, and event hosts already have the content — it lives in slides. The slow part is rewriting bullet points into well-formed multiple-choice questions, balancing distractors, and timing each round. An AI test maker compresses that work from an evening into a coffee break, and keeps the question wording grounded in your own material.

Stickman Quiz is built around this loop: upload a deck, get questions, host a live, doodled game where players join with a PIN and race the timer.

From PPT to live quiz in 4 steps

  1. Upload your .pptx. Sign in, click New quiz, and drop in the file. Both teacher decks and webinar slides work.
  2. Let AI draft the questions. The generator reads each slide, pulls out the key facts, and writes multiple-choice questions with one correct answer and plausible distractors.
  3. Review and tweak. Edit any wording, swap an answer, adjust the per-question timer, or reorder the round. You stay in control.
  4. Host the live game. Hit Start, share the 6-digit PIN, and players join from any phone or laptop — no install, no account.

What kind of slides work best?

  • Lecture decks with definitions, dates, formulas, or labeled diagrams.
  • Onboarding or compliance training where you want comprehension checks.
  • Conference talks turned into post-session knowledge games.
  • Revision decks at the end of a unit — a fast, low-stakes test maker.

Slides that are almost entirely images will produce weaker questions; add a short caption per slide and the AI has something to work with.

Tips to get sharper questions

  • Keep one idea per slide. The cleaner the source, the cleaner the question.
  • Use real headings instead of "Slide 4" — they become great question stems.
  • After generation, rewrite any question that feels too easy or ambiguous.
  • Mix question difficulty across the round to keep the leaderboard moving.
