Turn your lesson slides into Quizlet-style flashcards
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a worksheet and get flashcards your students can study with spaced repetition.
Why teachers use custom flashcards instead of generic decks
Many teachers searching for Quizlet-style flashcards for teachers want cards that match the exact chapter they covered this week. DeckOwl starts from your slides or notes, so the questions reflect your vocabulary and your examples.
- Cards built from your own lesson files
- Spaced repetition to support long-term recall
- Browser study available on the free plan
- Anki and CSV export on Plus, with QTI and Moodle XML on Pro
Built from your material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages and get cards drawn from the content you already teach.
Spaced repetition
Cards come back at intervals that help students remember, so review time goes to the material they are likely to forget.
Export when you need it
Plus exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for your course system.
How it works
Upload your lesson files
Add slides, a chapter PDF, typed notes or a photo of a handout.
Review the generated cards
Look over the flashcards and keep the ones that match what you taught in class.
Study in the browser or export
Students can study in the browser, and paid plans export to Anki, CSV, PDF or DOCX.
Look over the generated cards before you share them, and remove anything that does not match your lesson. Checking a set takes less time than writing one from scratch.

Frequently asked questions
Is DeckOwl made by Quizlet?
No. DeckOwl is a separate AI study tool and is not affiliated with Quizlet. It creates flashcards from the files you upload.
How many flashcards should a teacher make for one lesson?
Most lessons work well with a focused set that covers the key terms and a few core concepts, so students can finish a review in one sitting. Start with the vocabulary and ideas you assess, then add more only if students need them.
Can students study without paying?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study, but exports are part of the paid Plus and Pro plans.
What file types can I upload?
You can upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or notes, and images such as photos of pages, which are read with text recognition.
