Get free flashcards made from your own notes
Pre-made decks often miss what your course actually covers. Upload your notes, slides or PDFs and get flashcards built from your material, with no credit card needed to start.
Why your own notes beat a generic free deck
Pre-made decks can be a quick start, but they rarely match the exact terms your instructor tests, so the most useful answer to where to get free flashcards is often your own class material. Flashcards generated from your notes reflect the emphasis of your course.
- Cards come from the material you already have, so nothing is off topic.
- Photos of pages are read with text recognition, which helps with handwritten-scan handouts that are clear enough to read.
- The free plan lets you try the workflow with 3 generations per month.
- Paid plans add exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV for studying outside the browser.
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages, and get cards that match your lectures and readings.
Spaced repetition
Cards you miss come back sooner, so you spend study time on the terms you have not learned yet.
Free to start
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Paid plans add unlimited generations and exports.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, slide deck, document, text file or photo of your pages.
Review the cards
Check the generated flashcards and remove or edit any that do not fit your course.
Study on a schedule
Work through the deck and let spaced repetition bring back the cards you find hardest.
Start with the chapter or lecture you have to know next, and generate cards from just that section. Smaller batches are easier to review and easier to fix when something is wrong.
Once the cards exist, study them in short sessions. Say the answer aloud before you flip the card, and keep the cards you missed in the rotation until they feel automatic.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for a biology unit?
A common approach is one card per key term or concept in your lecture notes, so a unit with 40 important terms needs about 40 cards. Start with the terms your instructor stressed and add more where you keep missing answers.
What is the best way to study biology flashcards?
Say the answer aloud before flipping each card and rate how hard it felt. Spaced repetition brings missed cards back sooner, which helps terms stick over time.
Is the free plan enough to get flashcards?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are part of the paid plans.
Can I use a photo of my notes instead of a file?
Yes, photos of pages are read with text recognition. You can also upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX or plain text.
