Turn your USMLE Step 1 notes into an Anki-ready flashcard deck
Shared Step 1 decks cover someone else's course order. Upload your own PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages and get flashcards that match what you are studying.
Why build your own Step 1 deck
If you want a ready-made deck, a shared one may skip the topics your course covered, so generating an AI-made Anki deck for USMLE Step 1 from your own lecture slides and notes keeps the cards aligned with what you are studying.
- Use your own lecture slides so the cards match your course.
- Review each generated card before you start studying it.
- Add cards block by block rather than all at once.
- Export to Anki on the Plus plan if you already study there.
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images too.
Spaced repetition included
Cards return on a schedule that adjusts to what you miss, so high-yield facts stay with you.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus exports PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV. The free plan lets you study in the browser.
How it works
Upload your sources
Add lecture slides, PDFs, notes or photos of textbook pages for the Step 1 topics you are covering.
Generate flashcards
Get flashcards from your own content, then review them and remove anything that doesn't match your source.
Study or export
Review with spaced repetition in the browser, or export to Anki on Plus to keep one deck across devices.
Start with the systems your school emphasizes, such as cardiology, pharmacology and microbiology, and add cards from each block as you finish it. Review the generated cards before studying to fix anything that misreads your source.
Spaced repetition then brings missed cards back sooner, which suits the long review cycle that Step 1 demands.

Frequently asked questions
How many cards should a Step 1 deck have?
There is no fixed number, because a deck grows with the material you upload. Focus on high-yield topics from your own course and trim any cards you do not need.
Should I use a shared Step 1 deck or make my own?
Shared decks can include content you have not been taught yet. Making your own from lecture slides and notes keeps the cards tied to what you are actually studying.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, which also includes PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
