How a simple flashcard workflow works

Most students already have the material they need: lecture slides, a textbook chapter, or photos of handwritten notes. An easy flashcard maker reads those files and turns them into question and answer cards you can review on a schedule.

  • Flashcards built from the exact PDF, slides or notes you were assigned
  • Spaced repetition so review time goes to the cards you are missing
  • Quizzes with explanations and mind maps from the same material
  • Free plan with 3 generations per month and study in the browser
Example water cycle flashcards
EvaporationLiquid water turns into water vapor when the sun heats oceans, lakes and rivers.
What is condensation?Water vapor cools and changes back into tiny liquid droplets, which form clouds.
What is transpiration?Plants release water vapor through small pores in their leaves, called stomata.
What is infiltration?Water soaks into the ground and moves down through soil and rock, where it can become groundwater.
What is runoff?Water that does not soak in flows over land into streams, rivers and eventually the ocean.

Works with your own files

Drop in PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain text notes or photos of pages. Text in images is read with text recognition.

Flashcards with spaced repetition

Cards come back at the right time, so you spend less effort on what you already know and more on what you keep missing.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Turn the same material into multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions with explanations, or a mind map of the main ideas.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a file or a set of notes from class, or take a photo of a textbook page.

Generate your flashcards

The AI pulls out key terms and concepts and writes a question or term on the front and the answer on the back.

Study and review

Study in your browser on a spaced schedule. Paid plans can export your deck to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV.

The hard part of studying is usually writing cards, not reviewing them. Making cards by hand from a 40-slide deck takes longer than many people expect, and the cards often end up copying the text. Generating them from your own material keeps the wording tied to what your instructor actually covered.

Once the deck exists, spaced repetition does the scheduling. Cards you miss appear more often and cards you know appear less often, so each session stays focused on what needs work.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for the water cycle?

Aim for one card per term or process, such as evaporation, condensation, precipitation and runoff. Add more only when a concept keeps tripping you up on quizzes.

What should the back of a water cycle flashcard say?

Put the term or question on the front and a one-sentence explanation on the back, such as what transpiration is and where it happens. Short answers are easier to recall than full paragraphs.

Do I need to pay to export my flashcards?

Yes. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are part of the Plus plan, while the Free plan lets you study in the browser. Students can get 40% off with a school email.

Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?

Yes. The Free plan includes 3 generations per month with studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.
