Get Quizlet-style digital flashcards from your own study material
Upload a PDF, slide deck, set of notes or a photo of a page, and DeckOwl turns it into flashcards you can review in your browser.
Why digital flashcards work better when you make them yourself
Students who search for Quizlet-style digital flashcards usually want a deck that matches the course they are taking, not a generic set someone else wrote. Starting from your own lecture slides or textbook pages keeps the terms, notation and emphasis aligned with your exam.
- Turn PDFs, slides, notes and photos of pages into flashcards
- Review with spaced repetition so weak cards come back sooner
- Study in the browser on the free plan, with 3 generations a month
- Export to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV on Plus, at $99.90/year or $9.99/month
Built from your material
Start with the textbook chapter, lecture slides or handwritten notes you already have. Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or images.
Spaced repetition
Cards come back at the intervals where you are most likely to forget them, so review time goes to the material you need most.
Study anywhere
Review in the browser on a laptop or phone. Upgrade to Plus when you want to export your cards to Anki, PDF, DOCX or CSV.
How it works
Upload your source
Add a PDF, slides, notes or photos of a page. Images are read with text recognition.
Generate your cards
DeckOwl drafts flashcards from the content. Edit any card you want to reword before you start.
Review on a schedule
Study the deck in the browser, and let spaced repetition set the order and timing of your reviews.
Making cards from your own material also builds recall. Writing the question and answer yourself takes effort, and DeckOwl's generated drafts give you something to check and fix. On the Plus plan you can export the finished deck to Anki or CSV and keep studying wherever you prefer.

Frequently asked questions
What should a good flashcard on acids and bases include?
Keep one idea per card, with a short term or question on the front and a precise answer on the back. Include the definition, the formula or the pH value where it applies, so you can check your recall quickly.
How often should I review acid and base flashcards?
Review daily in short sessions, since spaced repetition works best with frequent, brief practice. Cards you miss will return sooner, which is where most of your study time should go.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature included in Plus. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser without exporting them.
Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study. You can start without a credit card, and students get 40% off with a school email.
