Draft questions from your notes

Drafting writes questions from your own notes for you to review. Every question quotes the sentence of your notes it came from, word for word, and nothing is saved until you keep it. It is not import. To bring in questions you already wrote, read Import questions from a spreadsheet.

On Free, Copy AI prompt for notes copies a prompt for your own AI tool, which writes the questions as a spreadsheet for you to import, free.

Draft from pasted notes

Open Draft from notes from Today or from New, or the Notes tab under Add. Paste a lecture's notes, a case summary or a reading, at least a sentence or two. Choose the topic they go under, or a part of a syllabus you follow by its @ code, the style and how many questions, up to 20, then press Draft questions.

  • Mixed recall & applied scenarios blends questions on what the notes say with problems that apply them.
  • Concept & rule recall asks what the notes state.
  • Applied problems & [Case] scenarios turns the notes' rules and formulas into worked problems, some sharing a case.

Draft from a file

Under Draft from a file, choose one PDF up to 30 pages, one Word file, or up to 10 photos or screenshots of notes, 10 MB in all, then press Draft from these files. A Word file and a PDF with text are read as they are. Photos, and a PDF with no text in it such as a scan, are first written out word for word, and the questions quote that text. The review shows it under The text these questions come from, so you can see what was read.

Review, then save

Each drafted question shows its quote from your notes. A question whose quote is not in your notes is never shown. Keep and Dropped choose which go in, Edit changes one before it is saved, and Save adds the kept ones to your topics. Discard draft throws the whole draft away.

What happens to your notes

Your notes and files are kept encrypted only until the draft is ready, and they are deleted within a day, or as soon as you save or discard. They go to Google Gemini to write the drafts, under Google's paid terms, which keep them out of its model training. What you write never trains a model, on any plan. Read the privacy notice.
