Why build your own CPA Anki deck

A pre-made CPA Anki deck can save time, but it rarely matches the exact wording, examples and order of your review course or your university's lectures. Cards written for someone else often test the wrong detail, and you end up memorizing answers that don't match your materials.

  • Cards generated from your chapters, slides and notes, not a generic list
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews around what you forget
  • Edit or remove any card before studying
  • Export to Anki on Plus, with CSV and PDF options
Example CPA flashcards for FAR and AUD
Under ASC 606, what are the five steps of revenue recognition?Identify the contract, identify performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the price to the obligations, and recognize revenue when each obligation is satisfied.
What is sampling risk in audit sampling?The risk that the auditor's conclusion from a sample differs from the conclusion that would be reached by testing the entire population, because the sample may not be representative.
What is the general holding period rule for long-term capital gains?An asset held for more than one year, so the gain is treated as long-term rather than short-term.
What does the accounting equation state?Assets equal liabilities plus equity, which must hold after every transaction in double-entry bookkeeping.
What does return on investment (ROI) measure?The return a business earns relative to the amount invested, calculated as net income divided by investment, then multiplied by 100 to express it as a percentage.

From your own materials

Upload PDFs, PowerPoint slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages. The cards follow what your course actually covers.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards come back at the intervals that suit how well you recall them, so review time goes to the material you keep missing.

Export to Anki

On Plus, export your cards to Anki along with CSV and PDF copies. The free plan studies in the browser without exports.

How it works

Upload your CPA material

Add a PDF of your chapter, a deck of slides, or a photo of your notes. Text from images is read with text recognition.

Generate and review cards

DeckOwl drafts flashcards from the material. Edit or delete any card that is off, then start studying.

Study or export

Study in the browser with spaced repetition, or export to Anki on Plus and keep reviewing on your phone.

DeckOwl reads the files you already study from and writes cards from them. You stay in control of what gets made, and you can edit any card before it goes into your review queue.

Because the cards come from your own notes, they reflect the standards and terminology your instructor uses. That makes reviews feel closer to the questions you will actually see on the exam.

Frequently asked questions

What should a CPA flashcard cover?

Good CPA cards focus on one rule, formula or concept per card, such as a standard, a calculation step or a term. Keep the question specific so you can answer it from memory in a few seconds.

How often should I review CPA flashcards?

Short, regular sessions work better than long weekly blocks. Spaced repetition handles the timing, so you review cards as they come due instead of rereading everything.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, on the Plus plan, which is $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, but no exports.

Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
