Quizzes are one of the fastest ways to move information from short-term recall into long-term memory. Clamly lets you build quizzes by hand, generate them instantly with AI, and fine-tune the difficulty so every session challenges you at the right level.

​
Creating a Quiz

​
Build a Quiz Manually

1

Open the Quiz Builder

Navigate to the Quizzes section in the sidebar and click New Quiz. Give your quiz a name and an optional description.
2

Add Questions

Click Add Question to open the question editor. Type your question, then add the correct answer and any distractor options you want to include.
3

Set the Difficulty

Choose a difficulty mode for each question — or set a default for the entire quiz. See the Difficulty Modes section below for details.
4

Save and Publish

Click Save Quiz when you’re done. Your quiz is now ready to take or share with a study group.

​
Generate a Quiz with AI

Let Clamly’s AI read your notes or uploaded PDFs and write the questions for you.
1

Start a New Quiz

Click New Quiz, then select Generate with AI instead of building manually.
2

Choose Your Source Material

Select one or more notes from your library, or upload a PDF. The AI uses this content as the basis for every question it creates.
3

Configure the Output

Pick how many questions you want and which difficulty mode to apply. Click Generate and the AI will populate the Quiz Builder in seconds.
4

Review and Edit

Read through the generated questions, tweak any wording, remove questions that don’t fit, and save the quiz when you’re satisfied.
For best AI results, use notes that are detailed and well-organized. The more context the AI has, the more targeted and accurate your quiz questions will be. Learn more on the Clamly AI page.

​
Difficulty Modes

Clamly offers three difficulty modes that change how questions are scored and how strictly your answers are evaluated.

Normal

Standard scoring with generous answer matching. Great for first-pass review or casual practice.

Hard

Tighter answer requirements and higher stakes per question. Use this when you want to push your recall further.

Hell

Maximum difficulty. Precise answers required and no partial credit. Reserved for serious exam preparation.

​
Taking a Quiz

Once your quiz is ready, click Start Quiz from the quiz detail page. Each question is presented one at a time. After you submit an answer you’ll see immediate feedback — whether you were correct, what the right answer was, and a brief explanation if one was added. At the end of a session Clamly shows you a results summary including your score, the time you spent, and which questions you missed. These results are saved automatically so you can track improvement across multiple attempts.

​
Scores, Streaks, and Progress

Your quiz history lives on the quiz detail page. From there you can:
  • Review past attempts — see your score for every session you’ve completed.
  • Track streaks — Clamly records consecutive days you’ve practiced, giving you a visible motivation streak.
  • Identify weak spots — questions you answer incorrectly most often are flagged so you know where to focus next.

​
Sharing Quizzes in Study Groups

Any quiz you create can be shared directly inside a Clamly study group. Open the quiz, click Share, and select the group you want to share it with. Group members can take the quiz independently and compare scores — a useful way to keep each other accountable when studying for the same exam.
Shared quizzes are view-and-play only for group members. Only the original creator can edit or delete the quiz.
