Turn your class notes into an AI-made Anki deck
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page. DeckOwl writes the flashcards, and you review them with spaced repetition in your browser.
How the AI deck builder works
Typing cards by hand from a 60-page lecture can eat an entire weekend. DeckOwl reads your slides and turns them into an AI-made Anki deck of question-and-answer cards you can review the same day.
- Flashcards generated from your own PDFs, slides, notes or photos
- Spaced repetition schedules each card for review
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study
- Plus adds unlimited generations and Anki export
Upload almost anything
PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, or a photo of a page. Images are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards return at the intervals your memory needs, so review time goes to the ones you are about to forget.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus adds unlimited generations and export to Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for the respiratory system?
Make one card per distinct fact, such as a structure, its function, or a key process. Skip any card that repeats an idea you already covered.
Is it better to write my own flashcards or generate them?
Writing cards yourself strengthens recall while you make them, but generating from your notes saves time for the review you actually do. Many students edit generated cards to match what their instructor stresses.
Does DeckOwl export to Anki?
Yes, Anki export is included in the Plus plan at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
How much does it cost to start?
The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and requires no credit card. Students get 40% off paid plans with a school email.
