Why generate your own flashcards instead of using a ready-made deck

Your lecture slides and textbook chapters already contain the questions your exam will ask. Knowing how to make flashcards with AI means starting from that material rather than searching for a printable set that may not match your course.

  • Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, notes or photos of pages
  • Review and edit the AI draft before you start studying
  • Keep each card to one idea with a short, specific answer
  • Use spaced repetition so weak cards return more often
Example acids and bases flashcards
What is a Bronsted-Lowry acid?A substance that donates a proton (H+) to another substance.
What is the pH of a neutral solution at 25 °C?7. Neutral means [H+] equals [OH-], each at 1.0 x 10^-7 M.
What is the conjugate base of HCO3-?CO3 2-, formed when HCO3- loses a proton.
What is the pH formula?pH = -log[H+]. Each one-unit drop in pH means ten times more acidity.
What happens when a strong acid dissolves in water?It dissociates almost completely, so [H+] is roughly equal to the acid's starting concentration.

Starts from your own material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. The flashcards come from your course content, not a generic deck.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later, so review time goes to what you are actually forgetting.

Export when you need it

Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for studying wherever you prefer.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, document, text notes, or a photo of a textbook page. Photos are read with text recognition.

Generate and check the cards

Review the AI-made flashcards, delete anything off-topic, and edit wording so each card asks one clear question.

Study with spaced repetition

Review the deck daily in short sessions. The schedule adjusts to which cards you recall and which you miss.

A custom deck also helps with retention. When you write or check each card, you have to decide what matters, and that decision is a useful study step on its own. Use the AI output as a first draft, then cut and reword until every card tests one idea.

Start small. Generate one chapter, review it for a few days, and add more once you see which card styles work for you.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for acids and bases?

Aim for one card per definition, rule, or formula, which usually means 30 to 60 cards for one chapter. Fewer, clearer cards work better than long answers that test several ideas at once.

What is the best way to study acid-base chemistry with flashcards?

Mix definitions with calculations, such as asking for the pH formula and then for a worked example. Review cards you miss more often than the rest, and practice writing conjugate pairs from memory.

Can I export my AI flashcards to Anki?

Yes, but export to Anki is a paid feature on the Plus plan, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. Students with a school email get 40% off.

Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?

The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no exports. You do not need a credit card to start.
