Make a quiz from any video in one click. AI reads what was said and writes multiple-choice and short-answer questions with an answer key. Built for teachers.
Free for recordings up to 1 hour and 1 GB. Longer files need a paid plan.
How It Works
Drop an audio or video file — MP4, MOV, MP3, WAV, M4A and more. The language is detected automatically.
AssemblyAI transcribes every word with exact timings — usually a fraction of the recording's length.
Read the result on the page, then download it along with the full transcript.
The Video Quiz Generator is a free online tool from ShortsHero: teachers: questions from any video. AssemblyAI speech recognition does the work — a 5-minute recording usually comes back in under 30 seconds. It is free for files up to 1 hour with no watermark; longer recordings need a paid plan.
Free transcription covers files up to 1 hour. If your recording is longer, a paid plan lifts the limit — or trim it into parts and run each one.
Why Use This Tool
Every word carries its start and end time, so subtitles line up with the speech.
The formats YouTube, Premiere, Resolve, CapCut and every major player accept.
Filter the transcript on the page to find any word and jump to its timestamp.
Full recordings, not a one-minute sample. Paid plans lift the length limit.
The spoken language is detected automatically.
Use the files anywhere — the transcript and subtitles are yours.
Yes. Files up to 1 hour long are free, with no watermark and no account needed. Recordings longer than 1 hour need a paid ShortsHero plan.
MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG, FLAC and most other audio and video formats, up to 1 GB. For a long video, uploading just the audio is faster.
Yes. Download the SRT and open it in our free online SRT editor, or in any video editor, to fix a word or a timing.
Usually well under the length of the recording — a 10-minute file is typically done in about a minute.
ShortsHero turns long videos into short vertical clips with AI moment detection, face tracking and animated captions — and has free tools for subtitles, transcripts and video formats.
The same transcription powers ShortsHero's clip maker: it finds the strongest moments, reframes them to vertical and adds word-by-word captions in 36 styles.
