Why build your own Japanese deck

Ready-made decks can help with the first hiragana and katakana charts, but most learners need cards that follow their own textbook chapters and lecture slides. A Japanese flashcards website that works from your material fills that gap: upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or photos of pages, and get flashcards with spaced repetition.

  • Cards come from the textbook chapter or slides you are actually studying.
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews for kana, kanji and vocabulary.
  • Photos of pages are read with text recognition, so you can start without retyping.
  • The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study; exports are on Plus.
Example Japanese vocabulary and grammar flashcards
What does 食べる (taberu) mean?To eat. It is an ichidan verb, so its polite form is 食べます (tabemasu).
What are the three Japanese writing systems?Hiragana, katakana and kanji. Hiragana and katakana are syllabaries, while kanji are characters borrowed from Chinese.
How do you read 日本語?Nihongo, meaning the Japanese language. 日 means sun or day, and 本 means book or origin.
Which particle marks the topic of a sentence?は (wa), written with the hiragana ha. It marks the topic, while が (ga) often marks the grammatical subject.
What is the polite past form of 行く (iku)?行きました (ikimashita). It is built from the stem 行き plus ました.
Generate the full set

Built from your files

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

Spaced repetition

Cards return on a schedule that brings back the ones you are about to forget, so review time goes to the hardest items.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Turn the same material into multiple choice, true or false, and short answer quizzes with explanations, or into a mind map of grammar points.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a chapter PDF, a slide deck, your handwritten notes as text, or a photo of a page.

Generate and check cards

The AI creates flashcards from your content. Scan the list and edit any card that looks wrong before you study.

Study on a schedule

Review in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki or CSV on Plus to keep your deck in another app.

Cards made from your own lessons keep vocabulary, kanji and grammar points in the order your class teaches them. Check the generated cards against the original page, since text recognition on photos can miss characters, and then study the ones you keep getting wrong.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for a Japanese lesson?

Aim for one lesson's worth of new vocabulary and grammar, often 15 to 30 cards. Smaller sets are easier to review daily, and you can generate another set once the first is memorized.

Should I learn kana before kanji flashcards?

Most courses teach hiragana and katakana first because every kanji reading is built on them. Use separate decks for kana, kanji and vocabulary so each one can be reviewed at its own pace.

Can I export my Japanese flashcards?

Exports are a paid feature. Plus, at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export along with unlimited generations. The free plan lets you study in the browser.

Does it work with photos of Japanese textbook pages?

Yes, photos of pages are read with text recognition. Review the cards afterward, because characters in a blurry or angled photo can be misread.
