Turn any PPT deck into flashcards with AI
Upload your slides, notes or PDFs and get question-and-answer flashcards that come back for review right when you are about to forget them.
Why slides make poor flashcards by hand
Most lecture decks are built for presenting, not studying, so a PPT to flashcard maker pulls the key terms and definitions out of each slide and turns them into question-and-answer cards.
- Turns each slide's key points into front-and-back cards in minutes instead of hours
- Accepts PPTX, PDF, DOCX, plain text and images of pages
- Uses spaced repetition so review time goes to the cards you are most likely to forget
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month; Plus adds unlimited generations and Anki or CSV export
Reads your slides
Pulls key terms, definitions and diagram labels from PPTX files so you do not retype them.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards you miss return sooner, and cards you know move out of the way, so study time goes where it is needed.
Works with mixed material
Combine slides, PDF readings, DOCX handouts, plain notes and photos of pages in one card set.
How it works
Upload your deck
Add a PPTX file, or a PDF, DOCX, notes or images of pages, from your device.
Review the generated cards
Skim the front and back of each card and remove or edit any that do not match the slide.
Study with spaced repetition
Study in the browser on the free plan, and review daily so the cards you struggle with come back on schedule.
You upload a PPTX file, and DeckOwl reads the slide text and handles images of pages with text recognition. You can combine the deck with readings or typed notes in one set, then review with spaced repetition so the cards you miss come back sooner.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for Newton's laws of motion?
Start with one card per law plus cards for key terms such as inertia, net force and action-reaction pair, which usually comes to 10 to 15 cards for one unit. Add cards for worked problems once the basic ideas feel automatic.
Should I memorize the formulas or understand the laws first?
Understand what each law says in words before memorizing F = ma, because exam questions often ask you to explain which law applies. Write one card that asks for the idea and another that asks you to apply the formula.
Can I export my slide flashcards to Anki or CSV?
Yes, but exports are a paid feature: Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. The free plan gives 3 generations per month and study in the browser.
Does it work with photos of slides or handwritten notes?
It accepts images of pages, which are read with text recognition, as well as PPTX, PDF, DOCX and plain text. Check the generated cards against the original slides, since recognition can miss small or handwritten text.
