Convert your notes to flashcards in a few minutes
Upload PDFs, slides, typed notes or photos of handwritten pages, and get flashcards you can review with spaced repetition.
Turning messy notes into flashcards that stick
Typed or handwritten, your notes already contain the questions you will be tested on, and the quickest way to convert notes to flashcards is to let the text be read and split into question and answer pairs. You still decide what matters, but the drafting work is done for you.
- Start with the headings and bolded terms in your notes; they usually mark the testable facts.
- Keep one fact per card so you can grade yourself honestly.
- Rewrite answers in your own words when the wording feels copied.
- Re-run your study deck after each new lecture rather than waiting until exam week.
Works with the files you already have
Upload PDFs, DOCX files, PPTX slides, plain text notes or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.
Cards built from your own material
Every flashcard comes from your notes, so you study what your course actually covers rather than generic content.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards come back at the right time, so you spend less effort on facts you already know and more on the ones you keep missing.
How it works
Upload or paste your notes
Add a PDF, a slide deck, a Word file, plain text or a clear photo of your handwritten page.
Review the generated cards
Check each question and answer, edit wording, and delete any card that repeats another or misses the point.
Study with spaced repetition
Work through the deck in the browser on a schedule that brings weak cards back sooner.
A good card holds one idea. When a note says the mitochondrion produces most of a cell's ATP through respiration, that becomes two cards: what organelle makes ATP, and how it does so. Short, specific answers are easier to recall than whole paragraphs copied onto the back.
Review the draft before you study. Remove cards that repeat each other, rewrite any answer that depends on context you will not have during a test, and add cards for anything the notes skipped. Then let spaced repetition handle the rest.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make from one set of lecture notes?
Aim for one card per distinct term, fact or cause-and-effect relationship. A dense page usually yields a handful of cards, and you can trim any that duplicate each other.
Should each flashcard hold one idea or a full paragraph?
One idea works best. Short answers are easier to recall and easier to grade honestly, while long paragraphs tend to become reading exercises.
Can I export the flashcards to Anki?
Yes, export to Anki is available on the Plus plan, which also includes PDF, DOCX and CSV export along with unlimited generations.
Can I try converting my notes before paying?
Yes, the Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and you do not need a credit card to start. Exports require a paid plan.
