Turn your notes and PDFs into AI-generated flashcards
Upload a chapter, lecture slides, or photos of your notes. DeckOwl writes question-and-answer cards and schedules reviews so you see the hard ones again at the right time.
Why an AI-generated deck saves time
Typing every term from a textbook chapter into cards takes longer than studying the chapter itself. An AI-generated flashcards app reads your own material and proposes question-and-answer cards, which you then review, edit, and keep.
- Cards come from your own course material, not a generic list
- Spaced repetition spaces out reviews based on what you recall
- Edit any generated card before you start studying
- Paid plans add Anki, CSV, PDF, and DOCX export
Works from your files
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or images. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know are spaced further apart, so review time goes to what you still need.
Study anywhere
Review your deck in the browser on the free plan. Paid plans add PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, document, or photo of a page from your class.
Review the generated cards
Check the question and answer on each card, then keep, edit, or delete it.
Study on a schedule
Open your deck daily. Spaced repetition decides which cards are due.
DeckOwl accepts PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, and photos of pages read with text recognition. Cards are scheduled with spaced repetition, so the ones you miss come back sooner. The free plan covers 3 generations per month and studying in the browser.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for an intro biology unit?
Focus on one card per key term or concept rather than a fixed number. Cards you can answer in a few seconds usually work best.
How does spaced repetition help with memorizing biology terms?
It schedules each card for review just before you would likely forget it, so terms move into long-term memory with less total study time. Missed cards come back sooner.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, while the free plan lets you study in the browser only.
Does the free plan include unlimited generations?
No. The free plan includes 3 generations per month. Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, removes that limit.
