Why build **note cards** from your own notes

Copying a lecture into cards is slow, and decks borrowed from other people rarely match your professor's emphasis. Making note cards from the material you actually have fixes both problems.

  • Upload lecture slides, reading PDFs or photos of handwritten pages
  • Each card has a question or term on the front and the answer on the back
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews around the cards you find hard
  • Free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser
Example note-taking flashcards
What is the Cornell note-taking method?A page layout with a notes column, a cue column of questions and a summary at the bottom, which helps you review actively.
What is active recall?Pulling an answer from memory without looking at your notes, which builds recall more effectively than rereading them.
What is spaced repetition?Reviewing material at increasing intervals so you see it again just before you would forget it.
Why summarize notes in your own words?Paraphrasing forces you to process the idea, and it shows gaps that copying the words down hides.
What should a good flashcard front contain?One question or term, so the answer on the back can be checked quickly and clearly.

Built from your material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page. The text is read and turned into cards from your own content.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at growing intervals, so you review each one shortly before you would forget it.

Export when you need it

Plus users can export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV to study wherever they prefer.

How it works

Add your notes

Upload a file, paste text or snap a photo of handwritten or printed notes.

Review the cards

Edit any card that is unclear, then keep the ones that match what your class covered.

Study on a schedule

Work through the deck in the browser and let spaced repetition bring back the cards you miss.

Good cards ask one question or name one term, so the answer can be checked in a second. Writing them yourself is a good workout, but a first draft from your slides gives you more time for the review that actually builds memory.

Start with the chapter you have to know this week, check the generated fronts and backs, and study them in short sessions across several days instead of one long cram.

Frequently asked questions

How do I turn lecture notes into good note cards?

Keep each card to one idea, put a question or term on the front, and make the back a short answer you can check. Cards built from a single paragraph or slide usually work better than cards built from a whole chapter.

How often should I review note cards?

Short sessions spread over several days work better than one long review before an exam. Spaced repetition handles the timing for you by showing difficult cards more often.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Exports are part of the paid Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month.

Can I export my note cards to Anki or PDF?

Yes, with the Plus plan you can export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV. Students get 40% off with a school email.
