Quizgecko alternative
Quizgecko alternative built around video, not text
Quizgecko is a capable, well-rounded quiz maker, and that breadth is a real strength: it turns text, documents, web pages, and other sources into questions in several formats, so if you mostly start from written material, it covers a lot of ground in one place. Plenty of teachers and trainers reach for it precisely because it is a flexible generalist.
What you are looking at
Three quizzes VidQuiz generated from three real YouTube videos. They are saved output, not generated in your browser. Pick one to answer it, and open the source video to check the questions against what is actually said in it.
Your own video gets a fresh quiz once you sign up.
We have not read that link.
This page only serves quizzes that were already generated, and it does not send your link anywhere. Reading a video takes about half a minute of real work on our side, so it runs in your account, not in an anonymous demo.
What VidQuiz reads: paste a YouTube link and VidQuiz watches the video itself. For any other source (Vimeo, an MP4, a screen recording, an upload) paste that video’s transcript and VidQuiz writes the questions from it.
Video-native · MCQ-first · timestamped questions · edit before you share
Free plan: 3 quizzes a month, no card needed
The reason people look for a Quizgecko alternative is video. VidQuiz is built around the idea that a video is the source, not an afterthought. You paste a YouTube link (lecture, course, webinar), VidQuiz watches the video itself, and it writes multiple-choice questions tied to the moments they came from, each with a timestamp chip so you can jump back to the exact point in the video. We are MCQ-first and video-native by design. Questions are generated from your own video, you can edit any of them before you share, and we do not claim a perfect-accuracy guarantee.
Quizgecko is a flexible generalist quiz maker across many input types, while VidQuiz is the video-native, MCQ-first generator with timestamped questions tied to moments in the video.

Why people pick VidQuiz
Built around video, end to end
Video is the source
Instead of treating video as one input among many, VidQuiz starts from the video. Paste a link and it reads the spoken content, then writes questions about what was actually said, so the quiz matches the lesson learners watched.
Timestamped questions
Each question shows a timestamp chip tied to the moment it came from. Learners can jump back to that point to review, and creators can confirm a question is fair against the exact part of the video it tests.
MCQ-first, you stay in control
VidQuiz leads with clear multiple-choice questions, each with an answer and a short explanation. Every question is generated from your video and fully editable, so you decide what the final quiz looks like before you share it.
