How a flashcard maker fits into your study routine

Most students end up with a folder of lecture slides and no quick way to quiz themselves on them. A flashcard maker reads the material you already have and turns the key terms and ideas into cards, so you spend your time studying instead of writing them out by hand.

  • Upload PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages and get a deck from your own material.
  • Study in the browser on the free plan, with 3 generations per month.
  • Use spaced repetition to review the cards you keep missing more often.
  • Export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on the Plus plan, or add Moodle XML and QTI 2.1 on Pro.
Example cell biology flashcards
What is the function of the mitochondria?It produces most of the cell's ATP through cellular respiration.
What does the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane do?It forms a selectively permeable barrier that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What is osmosis?The movement of water across a semipermeable membrane toward the side with higher solute concentration.
What is the role of ribosomes?They translate messenger RNA into chains of amino acids that form proteins.
How do eukaryotic cells differ from prokaryotic cells?Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells do not.

Works with your files

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner, so review time goes to the material you have not yet learned.

Export when you need it

Plus and Pro plans export to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV so you can study wherever you prefer.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a lecture deck, chapter PDF, typed notes or a photo of a handout.

Review the generated cards

Check the questions and answers, then edit or remove any card that does not match your course.

Study with spaced repetition

Work through the deck in the browser and let the schedule bring back the cards you find hardest.

The cards are only as useful as the source, so start with the readings and slides your instructor actually covers. Skim the generated set, keep the cards that test one clear idea, and fix any that are vague before you begin reviewing.

Spaced repetition then does the scheduling. Each session focuses on what you are likely to forget next, which makes a short daily session more effective than one long cram before the exam.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a cell biology unit?

Start with one card for each key term your instructor stresses, then add cards where you keep missing answers. A deck that grows with your weak spots is more useful than a fixed target.

What makes a good flashcard for memorizing biology facts?

Keep one idea per card and write the question so it has a single clear answer. Cards that ask you to explain a process tend to work better than cards that list many items at once.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, export to Anki is included in the Plus plan, which also offers unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan to try the flashcard maker?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students can get 40% off paid plans with a school email.
