  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews after you study
  • PDF export is available on Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month

Built from your files

Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or photos of pages, and get flashcards that match what your class actually covers.

Spaced repetition included

Cards are scheduled for review so you see weak spots again at the right time, instead of reprinting the same sheet.

Print or export when you need to

Export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV with Plus, so the cards can go on paper or into the app you already use.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slide deck, document, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page.

Review the generated cards

Check the questions and answers, edit anything that looks off, and keep the ones you want.

Study online or print

Study in the browser on the free plan, or export a printable PDF with Plus.

Upload the chapter, lecture slides or notes you are studying, and DeckOwl creates question-and-answer cards from that text. You review them before printing, which keeps the set accurate and focused on the exam.

Printing is a Plus feature, and the free plan lets you study the same cards in the browser with three generations per month.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for ancient Egypt?

Most chapters work well with 20 to 40 cards, focusing on one idea each such as a pharaoh, a site or a term. Split long material into sections so each set stays easy to review.

What should a good ancient Egypt flashcard cover?

Good cards test a single fact, such as a date, a ruler, a deity or a term, with a short answer on the back. Avoid cards that ask for long paragraphs, since they are hard to check quickly.

Can I print my flashcards?

Yes, PDF export is included with Plus, which costs $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?

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