Why generate your own flashcards

Game-style review is good for drilling terms, but the cards have to come from somewhere, and they work best when they match what your class actually covered. DeckOwl builds Gimkit-style flashcards from your own lecture slides, readings and notes, so you study your course content instead of a generic deck.

Start from the exact slides or notes your instructor used
Review with spaced repetition instead of one fixed pass
Add quizzes with explanations from the same material
Free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study

Example basic algebra equations flashcards

What is the first step to solve 3x + 5 = 20?Subtract 5 from both sides to get 3x = 15, then divide both sides by 3 to get x = 5.

Solve 2(x - 4) = 10.x = 9. Distribute to get 2x - 8 = 10, add 8 to get 2x = 18, then divide by 2.

Does x = 3 solve 4x - 7 = 5?Yes. Substituting gives 4(3) - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5, which matches the right side.

What is the inverse operation of multiplying by 6?Dividing by 6, applied to both sides so the equation stays balanced.

Why must you do the same operation to both sides of an equation?The equals sign means both sides have the same value, so changing only one side would make the equation false.

Cards from your material

Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. The text is read and turned into front-and-back cards.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later, so review time goes to what you are still forgetting.

Quizzes and mind maps too

The same material can also become multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations, or a mind map of the topic.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, a DOCX file, notes or a photo of a textbook page.

Generate the cards

DeckOwl creates flashcards from the content. Check them and remove any you do not need.

Study in the browser

Review with spaced repetition. Upgrade to Plus if you want to export to Anki or CSV.

DeckOwl does not host live games. It produces the cards and quizzes you study with on your own, in the browser, and spaced repetition decides when each card comes back. Because the cards come from your material, you can regenerate them after each unit.

Frequently asked questions

How should I make flashcards for basic algebra equations?

How do I use flashcards to remember algebra steps?

Put the equation on the front and the ordered steps with the answer on the back. Practice writing the steps from memory before you check the back.
