Turn your notes into flashcards and quizzes with AI
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a page. DeckOwl builds flashcards with spaced repetition and quizzes with explanations, so you can start studying in minutes.
How AI flashcards and quizzes fit into studying
Most students end up with a folder of lecture slides, scanned pages and half-finished notes, and no practice material built from them. DeckOwl can help you make flashcards and quizzes with AI from the files you already have, including PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, text and photos of pages.
- Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and images
- Quizzes include multiple choice, true or false and short answer
- Spaced repetition schedules each flashcard review
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month with no credit card
Flashcards with spaced repetition
Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know move to longer gaps, so review time goes to what you are actually forgetting.
Quizzes with explanations
Multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of why the correct answer is right.
Works with your own files
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or images. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slides, notes or photos of a textbook page. No credit card is needed to start.
Review the cards and questions
Check the generated flashcards and quiz questions against your source and edit anything that looks off.
Study on a schedule
Work through flashcards and quizzes in the browser, and let spaced repetition decide when each card returns.
Flashcards use spaced repetition, so the cards you struggle with come back sooner and the ones you know fade into longer gaps. Quizzes test recall with multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions, and each one explains the reasoning behind the answer.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for Greek mythology?
Start with 20 to 30 cards covering the main gods, heroes and myths on your syllabus, then add more as you learn. Keep related material in one set, such as a single myth or a family tree of the gods, so connected facts stay together.
How do I study Greek mythology with flashcards effectively?
Review a short set daily and say the answer out loud before flipping the card. Mix in questions about cause and consequence, such as why Prometheus was punished, not only names and dates.
