How an unlimited flashcard app fits into studying
Students who run out of free generations often search for an unlimited flashcard app, and the answer depends on how you plan to use it. The free plan covers three generations a month and studying in the browser. Plus removes the cap, so you can generate cards from every chapter, lecture deck and set of notes as you go.
- Unlimited generations on Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month
- Spaced repetition scheduling for every deck you create
- Works with PDFs, slides, notes and photos of pages
- Export to Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX on Plus
Cards from your own material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page, and get flashcards built from what your class actually uses.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards come back on a schedule that targets the ones you are about to forget, so study time goes where it counts.
Free to start
The free plan gives you 3 generations a month and browser study. Plus adds unlimited generations when you need more.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, slide deck, document, notes file or a photo of a page.
Generate your cards
DeckOwl reads the text and writes flashcards, which you can edit before studying.
Review on a schedule
Study in the browser with spaced repetition, and export to Anki or CSV on Plus.
Each generation turns uploaded PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page into cards with spaced repetition scheduling, so review focuses on the ones you are about to forget.
If you want cards in another app or on paper, export is a paid feature. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, while Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for course platforms.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for an anatomy unit?
Start with one card per term, structure or function from each lecture, then add cards for relationships such as which nerve supplies which muscle. Many students find that smaller decks reviewed daily work better than one large deck reviewed rarely.
Is spaced repetition better than rereading for anatomy?
Spaced repetition makes you retrieve terms from memory at increasing intervals, which is harder than rereading but tends to stick longer. Pairing it with labeled diagrams helps with structures that are hard to picture.
Does the free plan include unlimited generations?
No. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. Unlimited generations are part of Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus includes Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML.
