Moving an Anki deck into another app

Anki stores decks in its own format, so moving one to another app usually means working from the card text itself. DeckOwl reads PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text and photos of pages, which makes it a practical way to convert an Anki deck to Quizlet style study material. It builds new cards from your content rather than copying Anki's review history.

Anki decks are not imported directly; the text content is what gets converted.
Generated flashcards use spaced repetition in the browser.
CSV and Anki export are included on Plus, not the free plan.
Students can get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.

Generate the full set

Works from your text

Export your Anki cards as plain text, paste them in or upload the file, and DeckOwl generates flashcards from that material.

Spaced repetition built in

Review the new cards on a spaced schedule in the browser, so you do not need to keep the original Anki app open.

Export when you need it

Plus includes CSV, Anki and PDF export, so you can move the finished cards into other study apps.

How it works

Export the deck as text

In Anki, export the notes as plain text so the questions and answers are in a single file.

Upload or paste

Add the text file, or paste the card content, into DeckOwl.

Generate and export

Review the generated flashcards, then export a CSV on Plus to bring them into your next app.

The Plus plan includes CSV and Anki export, along with unlimited generations. That lets you keep the cards you generate and reuse them in other tools. The free plan has 3 generations per month and browser study, but no exports.

If your Anki deck came from lecture slides or textbook chapters, upload those original files instead of the deck. Working from the source often gives you cleaner questions and more accurate answers.

Frequently asked questions

How do I export an Anki deck as plain text?

In Anki, choose File, then Export, and pick the notes-as-plain-text option for your deck. Open the resulting file and check that each question and answer is readable before uploading it.

Does DeckOwl keep my Anki review history?

No. DeckOwl generates new flashcards from the text you provide and does not carry over Anki's scheduling history.

Can I export the cards for free?

Exports are a Plus feature. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.

How should I study a converted deck?

Review the cards in short daily sessions and rate how well you recalled each one. Spaced repetition brings difficult cards back sooner, which helps them stick.
