Turn your revision notes into flashcards with AI
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page and get flashcards you can review with spaced repetition.
Revision that follows your own course material
Most students revise from a pile of lecture slides and half-finished notes, then struggle to recall what matters in the exam. Turning that material into revision flashcards makes you pull answers from memory instead of rereading the same pages.
- Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages
- Spaced repetition schedules each card for review
- Quizzes with explanations to test what you have revised
- Export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on Plus

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for a revision session?
Most people manage 20 to 40 cards per topic, with one idea per card. Start with the material you find hardest and add cards as you go.
How often should I review revision flashcards?
Spaced repetition shows each card again shortly before you would forget it, so easy cards appear less often and difficult ones more often. Short daily sessions of 15 to 20 minutes are a practical habit for most exam timetables.
Is DeckOwl free to use?
The Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Exporting to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV requires Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month.
Can I use photos of my notes?
Yes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition, so you can upload images alongside PDFs, slides and plain text.
