Get a xiaoma Anki deck made from your own material
Pre-made decks use someone else's wording. DeckOwl turns your PDFs, slides, notes or photos of pages into flashcards that match what your class actually covers.
Why make your own xiaoma deck instead of downloading one
A ready-made xiaoma Anki deck covers someone else's wording, not the exact slides or chapter your course uses. Cards that miss your terms waste review time, and gaps are hard to spot until an exam.
- Cards come from your own slides, PDFs and notes
- Spaced repetition schedules reviews for you
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month
- Plus adds unlimited generations and Anki export
Built from your files
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or a photo of a page. Text recognition reads images, so handwritten or printed pages work too.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards are scheduled for review so you see the hard ones more often and the easy ones less often, without tracking dates yourself.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus exports your deck to Anki, along with PDF, DOCX and CSV. The free plan studies in the browser.
How it works
Upload your material
Add the slides, chapter PDF or notes that your xiaoma content comes from. No credit card is needed to start.
Review the generated cards
Check the flashcards against your source and edit any that look off before you start studying.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki with Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month.
Generating a deck from your own material keeps the wording and emphasis aligned with your class. You can also add or remove cards after generation, then review them on a spaced schedule instead of cramming the whole list the night before.
Start with one lesson so you can judge the card quality, then build the rest of the deck as you go.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should a Mandarin vocabulary deck have?
Start with 15 to 30 cards per lesson so each review session stays manageable. Add more only after you can recall the current set without checking the back.
How often should I review flashcards with spaced repetition?
Review daily in short sessions, even if only for 10 to 15 minutes. Spacing the reviews over days is more effective than one long session.
Can I export my DeckOwl deck to Anki?
Yes, export to Anki is included with Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
Is there a free plan?
Yes, the free plan includes 3 generations per month and browser study. Students with a school email get 40% off, and no credit card is needed to start.
