Cards from your material

The AI reads your PDF, DOCX, PPTX, notes or photographed pages and writes questions based on what you actually need to learn.

Spaced repetition

Cards come back at the intervals that help memory stick, so you review the hard ones more often and the easy ones less.

Print or export on Plus

Plus exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, so you can print a clean set or move it into another study app.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for ancient Egypt?

Aim for one card per distinct fact, such as a pharaoh, dynasty, building or term, rather than a fixed number. A focused set of 40 to 80 cards from one unit is usually easier to review than a huge deck.

What is the best way to memorize Egyptian dynasties?

Use cards that pair a dynasty number with its key ruler and one defining achievement, then review them in spaced sessions. Quizzing yourself on the order helps more than rereading the list.

Can I print my flashcards?

Yes, PDF export is included with Plus, which is $99.90/year or $9.99/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, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
