Making flashcards from a video, step by step

DeckOwl does not read video files, so a flashcard maker from video here starts with text: the transcript, captions or notes you took while watching. Once that text is in, the AI turns it into cards with a term or question on the front and the answer on the back.

Paste a transcript or notes from any video you are allowed to use
Upload slides, PDFs or photos of handwritten notes alongside the text
Edit or delete cards before you start reviewing
Study with spaced repetition, with exports to Anki on the Plus plan

Example flashcards on the human digestive system

Which enzyme begins protein digestion in the stomach?Pepsin, which is activated from pepsinogen by stomach acid.

What does bile do, and where is it stored?Bile emulsifies fats in the small intestine; the gallbladder stores and concentrates it.

Where is most water absorbed in the digestive tract?The small intestine absorbs most of the water, and the colon absorbs much of the rest.

What do villi and microvilli do?They increase the surface area of the small intestine so nutrients can be absorbed.

What do the colon and rectum do in the final stage of digestion?The colon absorbs water and electrolytes and forms feces, which the rectum stores until elimination.

Cards from your material

The AI pulls key terms and questions from your text so the deck matches what you actually studied.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at growing intervals, so you review the hard ones more often.

How it works

Get the transcript

Copy the captions or transcript from the video, or type your own notes from it.

Upload or paste

Add the text as a file or paste it in, and add slides or images if you have them.

Study the deck

Review in the browser on the Free plan, or export to Anki or CSV on Plus.

Lecture videos mix main ideas with asides, so review the generated cards before studying and delete any that repeat or drift off topic. Slides you already have work well too, since they carry the structure of the talk.

Free accounts get 3 generations per month with browser study. Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. Students get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make from a video on the digestive system?

Aim for one card per organ, enzyme or process, and split long lists into smaller decks. Cards that test one fact each are easier to recall than cards with several answers.

What is the best way to memorize the order of the digestive tract?

Make a card for each organ in sequence, with its main job on the back. Then quiz yourself in both directions, from organ to job and from job to organ.

Can DeckOwl take a YouTube link or a video file?

No, DeckOwl accepts PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, notes and images, so paste the transcript or upload your slides instead.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, export to Anki is included in the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The Free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
