Questgen alternative
Questgen alternative for turning video into quizzes
Questgen is a solid AI question generator, and it does its core job well: feed it text, a paragraph, or a PDF and it produces multiple-choice and other question types quickly. If most of what you teach already lives in written documents, that focus on text-to-question is genuinely useful and fast.
Pick a sample above or paste a video link, then hit Generate quiz to turn it into questions.
Reading the video…
Pulling the key moments and writing your questions…
Nice. That quiz was written from the video in seconds.
This quiz was made from the video. Now make one from yours.
Video-native · MCQ-first · timestamped questions · edit before you share
The reason people look for a Questgen alternative is that so much teaching now lives in video. VidQuiz is video-native. You paste a YouTube, course, lecture, or webinar link and VidQuiz reads the spoken content, then writes multiple-choice questions tied to the exact moments they came from, each with a timestamp chip. You do not transcribe the video first or paste text by hand. Questions are generated from your own video, every one is editable before you share, and we never claim perfect accuracy. The point is to go straight from video to a ready quiz.
Questgen is a fast text-and-document question generator, while VidQuiz is video-native and reads the video itself to write MCQs with timestamps, no transcribing required.

Why people pick VidQuiz
Built around video, end to end
No transcribing step
With a document tool you first need the text. With VidQuiz you paste a video link and it reads the spoken content for you, so there is no copy and paste and no separate transcription before you get your questions.
Questions tied to moments
Each multiple-choice question comes with a timestamp chip pointing back to the part of the video it tests. That keeps questions grounded in what was actually said and lets learners review the exact moment.
A ready draft you finish
VidQuiz writes clear MCQs with answers and short explanations as a first draft. Every question is generated from your video and editable, so you refine the wording and answers before sharing the quiz.
