Turn your foundation physics notes into flashcards with AI
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a textbook page. DeckOwl builds flashcards from your material and schedules reviews so you see weak cards again before they slip.
Why build your own foundation physics set
Foundation-tier physics flashcards are most useful when they reflect the specific notes, slides and past questions you are working from. Ready-made printable sets from the internet often cover a different syllabus or skip the topics your class emphasised, so you end up memorising the wrong facts.
- Make a set from the exact notes or slides your class uses
- Include equations, units and definitions, not just vocabulary
- Review cards in short daily sessions with spaced repetition
- Check each card against your source before the exam
Built from your material
Flashcards come from the exact pages you upload, so they match the topics your teacher or course actually covers.
Spaced repetition
Cards you find hard return sooner, and cards you know move further apart, so review time goes to the facts you are still missing.
Photos of pages work
Snap a page of your physics textbook or handwritten notes and text recognition reads it into the generator.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or photos of pages for the physics topics you are studying.
Generate your flashcards
DeckOwl creates question and answer cards from your content. Check them and remove anything you do not need.
Study with spacing
Review cards in the browser on the free plan, and let spaced repetition bring back the ones you struggle with.
Upload your own material and DeckOwl writes cards from it, including equations, units, definitions and the short explanations behind them. You can then edit the set, add the cards you wrote by hand, and keep only the ones that match your course.
Spaced repetition keeps the set working over several weeks. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month. Plus adds PDF and Anki export if you want a printed copy or want to study in another app.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for foundation physics?
Most students find that 40 to 80 cards per topic is manageable, so split a long unit into several sets. Focus on equations, units, key definitions and the few facts your teacher repeats most often.
What should foundation physics flashcards cover?
Cover core equations and when to use them, standard units, definitions such as density and mass, and the reasons behind common results. Cards work best when the answer is short enough to recall in a few seconds.
Can I print my flashcards?
The free plan lets you study in the browser. PDF export is part of Plus, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month, and Plus also includes Anki and CSV export.
Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?
Yes, the free plan gives you 3 generations per month and needs no credit card to start. Students with a school email get 40% off paid plans.
