Turn your notes into Quizlet-style AI flashcards for review
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or photo of a page and DeckOwl builds flashcards you can review with spaced repetition.
How to get AI flashcards from your own material
If you want Quizlet-style AI flashcards built from your own course material, start with what you already have. A lecture deck, a chapter PDF or a photo of handwritten notes can become a study deck without retyping anything.
- Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages
- Review flashcards with spaced repetition in the browser
- Create quizzes with explanations from the same material
- Export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on the Plus plan
Works from your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or images. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know move further apart, so review time goes to what you forget.
Quizzes and mind maps too
Turn the same material into multiple choice, true/false and short answer quizzes with explanations, or into a mind map.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, slides, a document, pasted text or a photo of your page.
Generate flashcards
DeckOwl creates a flashcard deck from your material in one pass.
Study in the browser
Review with spaced repetition on the free plan, or export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on Plus.
The cards come from your text, so they reflect your course rather than a generic list. Check the deck once after generation, remove anything off-topic, and then study it in short sessions over several days.
DeckOwl does not require a credit card to start. The free plan includes 3 generations a month and browser study, and Plus adds unlimited generations and exports.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for intro biology?
Aim for one card per term or fact you need to recall, and start with the vocabulary and definitions from each lecture. Smaller decks studied often work better than one large deck you rarely open.
What is the best way to study cell biology flashcards?
Quiz yourself from the front of each card before flipping it, and say the answer out loud. Review missed cards again the same day, then let spaced repetition space out the ones you know.
Is exporting to Anki included in the free plan?
No. Exports to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV are part of the Plus plan, which is $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser.
Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?
No. You can start without a credit card, and students get 40% off with a school email.
