# Free AI quiz generator: make a real quiz without paying (or signing up)

Short answer: paste one line into Claude or ChatGPT and you get a live,
hosted quiz link back — no payment, and for a first try, no account either.
QuizGen's sandbox lets an AI create a quiz with zero sign-up; the free plan
then gives you 3 live quizzes with 100 answers per quiz per month.

Most "free AI quiz generators" do half the job: they write question text,
then leave you to copy it into some other tool, rebuild it by hand, and hit
a paywall at the hosting step. Here the AI path ends in a shareable
`quizgen.dev/q/...` URL, not a wall of text.

## How to do it

Paste this into any chat with Claude or ChatGPT:

> "Use quizgen.dev to build me a quiz — read quizgen.dev/llms.txt first, then
> make it and send me the link."

Then describe the quiz in plain English — topic, number of questions,
whether you want a score at the end. The AI reads
[quizgen.dev/llms.txt](/llms.txt), builds the quiz, and hands you the live
link. The step-by-step version is in
[how to build a quiz with Claude](/blog/build-a-quiz-with-claude.md), and if
you'd rather not open a chat at all, there's a generator on the site at
[/ai-quiz-generator](/ai-quiz-generator).

With no account, that's a **sandbox** quiz: live immediately, works on
phones, autosaves answers — but it expires after 72 hours and caps at 10
responses. You also get a claim link; open it to sign up free and keep the
quiz and its answers.

## What free actually includes

The free plan (sign up at [quizgen.dev/login](/login)):

- **3 live quizzes**, 100 answers per quiz per month, responses kept 90 days
- 16 of the 18 question types — choice, multi-choice, scale, star rating,
  slider, yes/no, date, time, email, and more. The two exceptions are
  `payment` (Business) and `file_upload` (Pro or Business)
- Branching (`show_if`), scoring and outcome buckets, completion redirects
- A webhook on 1 quiz
- Custom accent color

That's enough for a real classroom quiz, a lead-qualification form, or a
"which one are you?" quiz with results — not a crippled demo.

## What needs a paid plan

- **Volume:** more than 3 live quizzes or 100 answers/quiz/month — Pro
  ($15/mo) is unlimited quizzes and 5,000 answers/quiz/month
- **Branding:** theme presets, custom fonts, logo, and removing the
  "Powered by QuizGen" footer (free keeps the footer and accent-only theming)
- **Email delivery:** sending the quiz to a recipient list with per-person
  tracking and auto-reminders
- **Tracking extras:** hidden fields for UTM/campaign capture; webhooks on
  every quiz instead of one
- **Business ($49/mo):** 25,000 answers/quiz/month, in-quiz Stripe payments,
  5,000 email sends/month, 25 MB file uploads

## The honest limits of free

100 answers per quiz per month is plenty for a class or a small campaign,
but a quiz that takes off will hit the cap — the page then stops accepting
responses until the month rolls over (existing answers stay readable).
Responses are kept 90 days, so export anything you want to keep long-term.
And your quiz will carry the QuizGen footer. If none of that bites, there's
no reason to pay.
