Need a flashcard template? Generate one from your own notes
Word can give you a blank table to type into, but DeckOwl reads your PDFs, slides, notes or photos and writes the flashcards for you.
Why a generated flashcard template saves time
A flashcard template in Word is a table with a question column and an answer column, and it prints cleanly. The catch is that it stays blank until you type every card yourself, which takes longer than the studying itself.
- Start from your own notes, not a generic template
- Cards come with answers you can check and edit
- Spaced repetition schedules reviews for you
- Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are on Plus
Built from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page, and get flashcards drawn from what you actually need to learn.
Spaced repetition
Cards come back at the intervals that help you remember them, so you spend study time on the ones you are about to forget.
Export when you need it
Export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV on a paid plan if you still want a printable version for class.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, Word file, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page.
Review the generated cards
Check the front and back of each flashcard and keep, edit or remove the ones you do not need.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to PDF, DOCX or Anki with Plus.
DeckOwl starts from the material you already have. The AI pulls out key terms and questions, writes the answer side, and schedules reviews with spaced repetition, so the work shifts from typing to checking.
If you still want a printed sheet, export the cards to PDF or DOCX on a paid plan. Free accounts can study in the browser and get three generations each month without a credit card.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for renewable energy sources?
Aim for one card per distinct idea, such as each energy source's mechanism, advantages and main limitation. Most chapters work well with 20 to 40 cards, and you can add more once you see which ideas you keep missing.
How do I study renewable energy sources with flashcards?
Review the cards in short daily sessions, say the answer aloud before you flip the card, and mark the ones you miss so they come back sooner. Mixing cards from solar, wind and hydro helps you tell the sources apart.
Can I export my flashcards to Word?
Yes, DOCX export is available on the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month, along with PDF, Anki and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Is there a free plan?
Yes, the free plan includes three generations per month and browser study, and you can start without a credit card. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
