How a flashcard maker from notes works

Typing cards by hand from lecture notes takes longer than the review itself. A flashcard maker from notes reads your text and proposes question and answer pairs you can edit before you study.

  • Upload typed notes, slides, PDFs or photos of pages
  • Edit any generated card before you start studying
  • Review in the browser with spaced repetition scheduling
  • Export to Anki or CSV on a paid plan
Example supply and demand flashcards
What is the law of demand?As the price of a good rises, the quantity demanded falls, holding other factors constant.
What is equilibrium price?The price where quantity demanded equals quantity supplied, so there is no pressure for it to change.
What causes a rightward shift in the supply curve?An increase in supply, such as lower input costs or better technology, so sellers offer more at each price.
What is a shortage?A situation where quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied at a price set below equilibrium.
What is a substitute good?A good consumers can use in place of another, so a price rise for one tends to increase demand for the other.

Works from what you already have

Paste typed notes or upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX or photo of a handout. Text recognition reads the pages so you do not retype anything.

Cards you can edit

Each generated card shows a question on the front and an answer on the back. Change wording, merge duplicates or delete anything that does not match your course.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later, so review time goes to the material you are actually forgetting.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of your notes. No credit card is needed to start.

Generate flashcards

DeckOwl turns the material into question and answer cards. You can also create quizzes and mind maps from the same upload.

Study on a schedule

Review cards in the browser each day. Spaced repetition decides which cards appear again and when.

Spaced repetition then brings each card back at the point where you are most likely to forget it. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Plus, at $39/year or $7.99/month, adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make from one lecture on supply and demand?

Aim for one card per term or rule, such as the law of demand or equilibrium price, so each card tests a single idea. Lectures on this topic usually produce a manageable set when you keep each card to one point.

How should I use flashcards for supply and demand graphs?

Put the change on the front, such as what happens to equilibrium if demand rises. On the back, explain the new price and quantity, then redraw the graph from memory to check yourself.

Can I export my flashcards?

Exporting is a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Students get 40% off with a school email.
