Turn your ETS word lists into GRE vocab flashcards with AI
Upload the vocabulary chapters, practice sets and notes you already have. DeckOwl builds flashcards from those exact words and schedules reviews so the hardest ones come back first.
Why build your own GRE vocab deck
Most GRE vocab study starts with a printed word list, but the words that matter most are the ones in your own prep books and practice sets. DeckOwl turns PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages into GRE vocab flashcards you can review with spaced repetition, so the words you struggle with come back more often.
- Cards are built from the exact words in your prep material
- Spaced repetition brings back the words you miss
- Export to Anki or CSV is included with Plus
- Study in the browser on the free plan with 3 generations per month
From your own word lists
Upload PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages and get cards built from the words in your materials.
Spaced repetition
Words you miss come back sooner, and the ones you know move to longer gaps between reviews.
Quizzes and mind maps
Test yourself with multiple choice or short answer questions, or map word roots and related terms.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a vocabulary page.
Generate the deck
DeckOwl drafts flashcards with the word on the front and its definition on the back.
Review with spacing
Mark each card as known or missed and let spaced repetition decide what comes back next.
A printable list is a fixed snapshot, and it will not match the passages and sentences you actually practice with. Upload a chapter, a screenshot of a vocabulary page or your typed notes, and the cards are drawn from that material, which keeps your review tied to what you are studying.
On the free plan you get 3 generations per month and can study in the browser. Plus adds unlimited generations and export to Anki and CSV for a longer review routine.

Frequently asked questions
How many GRE vocab words should I study each day?
Most students do better with a short, steady daily session than with one long cram session. Adjust the amount to your test date and to how many of the words you already know.
Should I memorize GRE words alone or in context?
Learning words in sentences helps you recognize them in reading passages, which is how they usually appear on the test. Pair each card with an example sentence from your prep material when you can.
Can I export these flashcards to Anki?
Yes, export to Anki is part of the Plus plan, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Is there a free plan to try this?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
