Turn your PDFs and notes into Anki flashcards with AI
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page and get flashcards with spaced repetition. Export them to Anki on Plus.
How to create Anki flashcards from your own notes
Students who want to create Anki flashcards usually already have the material: a lecture deck, a chapter PDF, or a page of handwritten notes. The fastest route is to turn that material into cards directly, then check them against the source so the deck matches what your course actually tests.
- Cards are built from your own pages, so the deck matches your course
- Review scheduling brings back weaker cards more often
- Edit any card before studying or exporting
- Anki export is a Plus feature; the free plan stays in the browser
Upload almost anything
PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes, or photos of pages read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards come back on a schedule that puts the ones you are about to forget in front of you.
Anki export on Plus
Plus exports your deck for Anki. The free plan keeps everything for studying in the browser.
How it works

Review the generated cards
Edit, delete or add cards before you start studying.
Study or export
Review in the browser with spaced repetition, or export to Anki on Plus.
Spanish verb units are a good test case. A deck can cover the present-tense forms of hablar, tener, and ser, and spaced repetition brings back the forms you miss most often until they come without thinking.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for a Spanish verb unit?
Start with the verbs your class lists, then add conjugation forms in small batches so each card gets reviewed often. Adding too many at once makes review sessions harder to keep up with.
Should I drill verb endings or whole sentences?
Use both. Start with the endings for each person, then add short sentences so you remember when each form is used.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, Anki export is included with the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month without a credit card, and students get 40% off Plus with a school email.
