Turn your med school slides into a med Anki deck
Prebuilt decks cover general material. DeckOwl builds flashcards from the exact PDFs, slides, and notes your course uses, then schedules reviews with spaced repetition.
Why build your own med deck
Prebuilt med Anki deck downloads are popular, but they rarely follow your professor's lecture order or the exact figures your exam will test.
- Cards drawn from your own lectures and readings
- Spaced repetition schedules reviews automatically
- Photos of textbook pages are read with text recognition
- Export to Anki, CSV, PDF, or DOCX on the Plus plan
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages, and get cards drawn from your own course.
Spaced repetition
Cards return at intervals timed to when you are likely to forget them, so review time goes to the hardest facts.
Export to Anki
On Plus, export to Anki, CSV, PDF, or DOCX so your deck works in the tools you already use.
How it works
Upload your sources
Add lecture slides, chapter PDFs, notes, or photos of textbook pages.
Generate your deck
DeckOwl creates flashcards from the content, and you can edit any card before you study.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the Free plan, or export to Anki on Plus.
A deck built from your own material closes that gap. Upload the slides and readings you already have, and DeckOwl turns them into flashcards with spaced repetition, so review stays focused on what your course actually covers.
You can test the free plan on one lecture first and decide later whether you need exports for Anki.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make per med school lecture?
There is no fixed number, so let the lecture decide. Aim for one fact per card and split long lists into separate cards so each one can be recalled on its own.
How should I make flashcards for pharmacology?
Avoid cards that only ask for a drug name. For each drug, make separate cards for its mechanism, main indication, and most important adverse effect so you can recall it in clinical context.
Can I export my med flashcards to Anki?
Yes, Anki export is available on the Plus plan, which also includes CSV, PDF, and DOCX export. The Free plan keeps your decks in the browser.
Is there a free plan to try this?
Yes, the Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
