  • Start free with 3 generations per month and no credit card.
  • Plus is $39/year or $7.99/month and includes Anki export.
  • Students get 40% off with a school email.
  • Re-check generated cards against your source before you study.

Upload any source

Drop in PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or photos of pages. Text in images is read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards are scheduled for review at growing intervals, so you see weak spots again before you forget them.

Anki export on Plus

Plus exports your cards to Anki, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV. The free plan keeps studying in the browser.

How it works

Gather the original material

Find the notes, slides or PDF the Quizlet set was built from. Photos of pages work too.

Generate flashcards

Upload the file and generate flashcards. Each card is built from your material, so check the wording against your notes.

Export to Anki

Choose Anki export on Plus, import the file into Anki, and keep reviewing on the spaced repetition schedule.

DeckOwl takes PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text notes, and photos of pages, then writes flashcards from them. Those cards use spaced repetition inside DeckOwl, and Plus exports them to Anki as well as PDF, DOCX and CSV.

Compare the new cards with your original notes and fix anything that reads wrong. A short check now saves you from memorizing a mistake later.

Frequently asked questions

Can I export flashcards to Anki on the free plan?

No. Anki export is part of Plus, which is $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and study in the browser.

How many flashcards should I make for one exam unit?

Start with the terms, definitions and processes your instructor stressed, then add cards only for ideas you keep missing.

What study material makes the best flashcards?

Clear sources like lecture slides, typed notes or a textbook chapter work best. Photos of handwritten pages can work, but check the text carefully before studying.

Does moving cards to Anki keep my review schedule?

No. Anki schedules imported cards on its own, so the first sessions will show which ones need more practice.
