Why a custom math deck beats a generic one

A printed deck of math for love flashcards may not match the definitions, notation, and worked problems your own course uses, so a set built from your pages usually fits better.

  • Cards generated from your own handouts, slides, and notes
  • Photos of pages read with text recognition
  • Spaced repetition that schedules reviews around what you miss
  • Quizzes with explanations for checking your understanding
Example algebra flashcards for a math course
What is the slope-intercept form of a line?y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
What does the Pythagorean theorem state?In a right triangle, a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse.
What does the distributive property state?a(b + c) = ab + ac
What is the derivative of x²?2x, found with the power rule.
What is a prime number?A whole number greater than 1 with exactly two positive divisors, 1 and itself.

Built from your pages

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition, so handwritten-to-print scans of worked problems work too.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later. Your review schedule adjusts as you study.

Quizzes and mind maps too

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

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, notes, or a photo of the page you are studying. No credit card is needed to start.

Review the flashcards

Check the generated cards, edit any that are off, and keep the ones that match your course.

Study on a schedule

Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki or CSV on Plus, and let spaced repetition pick what comes next.

Math cards work best when each front asks for one idea, such as a formula, a rule, or a step, and the back gives the answer with the reasoning. Writing cards from your own examples keeps them tied to the methods your exam will test.

Upload the chapter or lecture slides you are studying, review the cards the AI makes, and fix any that miss a step. Each review session then focuses on what you still find hard.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for an algebra unit?

Start with 20 to 40 cards that cover the key rules and formulas in one unit, then add more as new terms show up. Give the hardest cards more review time than the easy ones.

What makes a good math flashcard?

Put one idea on the front, such as a rule, a formula, or a problem type. On the back, write the answer with a short line of reasoning so you can check whether your method was right.

Can I export my math flashcards?

Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV are included with the Plus plan, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. The free plan lets you study the flashcards in your browser, with 3 generations per month.

Can I use photos of my textbook pages?

Yes. Photos of pages are read with text recognition, and you can also upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, or plain text notes.
