Turn your physics, math and chemistry notes into flashcards
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page. DeckOwl builds flashcards you can review with spaced repetition, so the formulas and definitions stick.
Flashcards for physics, math and chemistry, made from your own material
Students juggling physics, math and chemistry flashcards usually have the material spread across lecture slides, textbook PDFs and handwritten notes. Copying all of that into cards by hand takes longer than the studying itself.
- Turns lecture slides and textbook chapters into cards for physics, math and chemistry topics.
- Uses spaced repetition so harder formulas and definitions return more often.
- Reads photos of pages with text recognition when you do not have a digital copy.
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, with exports on Plus.
Built from your material
Flashcards come from your own lecture slides, textbook chapters and handwritten notes, not a generic question bank.
Spaced repetition
Cards you find hard come back sooner, and cards you know move further apart, so review time goes to what you miss.
Photos and scans too
Snap a page from a physics or chemistry textbook and images are read with text recognition, so you can make cards without retyping.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or image of a page covering the topic you are studying.
Generate your flashcards
DeckOwl creates question and answer cards from the content, which you can review and study in the browser.
Review on a schedule
Spaced repetition brings back each card at the right time, and Plus users can export to Anki or CSV.
Start with the chapter you are working through. Upload the PDF or photograph the page, and DeckOwl produces cards for definitions, laws, formulas and worked steps. Check the cards against your course notes, remove anything that is off, and add your own where your teacher stressed a point.
Spaced repetition then handles the review schedule. Physics and chemistry rely on recalling units, conditions and rules, while math depends on remembering which method to use, so short daily sessions work better than one long cram.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for a physics or chemistry exam?
There is no fixed number, but a good starting point is one card per law, definition, formula or worked step in each chapter. Spend more cards on the ideas you keep missing, and let spaced repetition bring them back more often.
How do I study math formulas with flashcards?
Put the formula or theorem on the front and a short note on when to use it on the back, rather than only the answer. Try writing the steps from memory before you check the card.
Can I export these flashcards to Anki?
Yes, Anki export is included on the Plus plan, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Does DeckOwl work with photos of textbook pages?
Yes, images are read with text recognition, so a photo of a page can become flashcards. No credit card is needed to start, and the free plan includes 3 generations per month.
