Turn your A-Level notes into Anki flashcards with AI
Upload your PDFs, slides, typed notes or photos of textbook pages. DeckOwl builds flashcards from your material and schedules reviews with spaced repetition, so you revise what you are about to forget.
How to get useful A-Level flashcards from your own notes
Most A-Level students end up with a pile of slides, typed notes and past paper mark schemes, and the quickest way to turn that into A-Level Anki flashcards is to generate them from the material you already have. Cards made from your own teacher's slides and your exam board's specification match what you will be tested on.
- Cards generated from PDFs, slides, DOCX files, notes and photos of pages
- Spaced repetition so each card comes back when you are likely to forget it
- Quizzes with explanations and mind maps for linking topics together
- Free to start with 3 generations per month and no credit card needed
Built from your own material
Drop in lecture slides, revision notes, past paper mark schemes or photos of textbook pages. The cards cover the content you actually need for your exam board.
Spaced repetition built in
Each card returns at the right time for you, with harder cards coming back sooner. Short daily sessions work better than one long cram before the exam.
Export to Anki on Plus
On the Plus plan you can export your decks to Anki, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
How it works
Upload your revision material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX file, plain text notes or images of pages. Everything is read and converted into study material.
Review the generated cards
Check the flashcards against your syllabus, edit anything that is unclear, and delete cards you do not need.
Study daily and export if you want
Work through the cards that are due each day in the browser. On Plus, export the deck to Anki and keep studying there.
Good A-Level cards ask for one fact, definition or step at a time. Write the question on the front and keep the answer short on the back, then add a card for each equation, key term and common exam mistake. Review the cards you get wrong more often, since spaced repetition will bring them back sooner.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for an A-Level topic?
Most students find 15 to 30 cards per topic enough to cover definitions, equations and typical exam questions. Cut any card you can already explain from memory, then add cards for the gaps you find when you test yourself.
How often should I review A-Level Anki cards?
Review the cards that are due each day in short sessions, rather than leaving them for a single weekend. Spaced repetition handles the timing, so cards you struggle with come back sooner.
Can I export my A-Level flashcards to Anki?
Yes, exporting to Anki is a Plus feature, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV exports. The free plan lets you study the flashcards in your browser with 3 generations per month.
Does DeckOwl work with photos of textbook pages?
Yes, photos of pages are read with text recognition, so you can upload them alongside PDFs, slides and notes. Photos that are well lit and in focus give the best results.
