Why importing notes beats retyping them

Most students already have the material they need in a folder of lecture slides, typed notes and scanned handouts, so the faster route is to import notes to flashcards directly instead of copying terms out by hand.

  • Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of printed pages
  • Cards come from your own material, so they match your course
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews so you study before you forget
  • Edit or delete any card before you start studying
Example cell biology flashcards from a biology unit
Which organelle produces most of a cell's ATP?The mitochondrion, through cellular respiration, which is why it is often called the powerhouse of the cell.
What is the function of the Golgi apparatus?It modifies, sorts and packages proteins and lipids for transport to their final destinations.
How do eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells differ?Eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while prokaryotic cells lack both.
What does the phospholipid bilayer do?It forms the cell membrane, with hydrophilic heads facing water and hydrophobic tails inside, controlling what passes in and out.
What is osmosis?The movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of lower solute concentration to one of higher solute concentration.

Many file types

Upload PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text notes, or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at the intervals that suit how well you know them, so you spend time on what you are likely to forget.

Studies in the browser

Review your flashcards on any device with a browser. The free plan lets you study without installing anything.

How it works

Add your material

Drop in a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file, text notes or a photo of a page.

Review the cards

Check the generated flashcards, edit any that miss the point, and keep the ones that fit your course.

Study on a schedule

Work through the deck daily. Spaced repetition brings back the cards you are about to forget.

The generator reads the text in your file, picks out terms, definitions and facts, and writes them as question and answer pairs. You still decide what stays, so the deck reflects what your instructor actually emphasized.

Because the cards come from your own notes, you are studying the exact wording and examples from your class rather than a generic set.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a cell biology unit?

A typical chapter can yield a few dozen cards covering key organelles, processes and terms. Start with the core vocabulary from your notes, then add cards for any concept you keep getting wrong.

How often should I review flashcards to remember them?

Short daily sessions work better than one long cram session. Spaced repetition spaces reviews further apart as you get answers right, which helps memory hold over time.

Can I export my flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan to try importing my notes?

Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. No credit card is needed to start, and students get 40% off with a school email.
