Watching a lecture once rarely sticks, so a lecture video to quiz tool turns passive viewing into active recall. Paste a YouTube link and VidQuiz watches the lecture itself; upload the recording with its transcript for anything else. Either way it writes multiple-choice questions with answers and short explanations you can self-test against.
It suits students reviewing recorded classes and instructors who want a check after each session. Each question carries a timestamp, so when you miss one you can jump back to that part of the lecture. Generate in seconds, edit anything, and share a quiz link with classmates or a whole cohort. You always control the final questions.
