Turn your organic chemistry notes into flashcards for Anki
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page. DeckOwl pulls out reactions, mechanisms and definitions and builds flashcards you can review with spaced repetition.
Why organic chemistry flashcards work better when they come from your course
Organic chemistry runs on reaction mechanisms, functional groups and stereochemistry, and that is a lot to memorize from a lecture deck. DeckOwl reads your own material and turns it into AI-made organic chemistry flashcards for Anki that follow what your instructor covered.
- Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of textbook pages
- Get flashcards with spaced repetition, plus quizzes and mind maps from the same material
- Study free in the browser with 3 generations per month
- Export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, with 40% off for students using a school email
Built from your own material
Cards come from your lecture slides, notes or textbook PDF, so they follow the reactions and structures your course actually covers.
Spaced repetition in the browser
Cards resurface at the intervals your memory needs, so reagents and mechanisms stick before your next exam.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus exports your deck to Anki, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV, so you can keep studying in the app you already use.
How it works
Upload your organic chemistry material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or photos of pages. Images are read with text recognition.
Generate and review the cards
DeckOwl creates flashcards from the material. Check the fronts and backs, then start reviewing in the browser.
Export to Anki when you are ready
On Plus, export the deck to Anki and keep reviewing with its scheduler or with the spaced repetition built into DeckOwl.
Spaced repetition does the rest. Reviewing mechanisms and reagents at growing intervals helps you recall the steps under exam pressure, and a deck built from your own notes keeps the focus on the reactions your course tests.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for organic chemistry?
Most people do better with a focused deck of 20 to 40 cards per chapter than one huge deck. Start with the functional groups, named reactions and reagents your exam lists, then add mechanisms once the basics are automatic.
What should go on the front of an organic chemistry flashcard?
Put a reaction, a mechanism step or a reagent on the front and ask what happens or what it does. Keep one idea per card so a missed answer tells you exactly what to review.
Can I export my organic chemistry flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but Anki export is included on the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser, with 3 generations per month.
Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?
No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card and upload your own material to see how the cards look.
