Turn your notes into Quizlet-style study sets with AI
Upload typed notes, slides, a PDF or a photo of a printed page. DeckOwl writes flashcards with spaced repetition, quizzes with explanations and mind maps from the same material.
From class notes to a study set in one step
Students who want their notes turned into Quizlet-style cards usually already have the material, just not in a form they can drill. DeckOwl reads typed notes, slides, PDFs and photos of printed pages, then writes flashcards and quiz questions from them so review can start the same day you take the notes.
- Works with typed notes, slides, PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files.
- Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition.
- Flashcards and quizzes are generated from the same source material.
- Students can get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make from a genetics chapter?
Most students do well with 20 to 40 cards per chapter, focused on one idea each, such as a term, a process or a comparison. Cards that test a single fact are easier to review with spaced repetition than long multi-part answers.
What is the difference between a genotype and a phenotype?
A genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism, meaning the alleles it carries for a trait. A phenotype is the observable trait that results from the genotype together with environmental effects.
Can I export my cards to Anki or CSV?
Yes, Anki and CSV export are included in the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
Is there a free plan to try this first?
Yes, the free plan includes 5 generations a week and browser study, and no credit card is needed to start. Upgrading to Plus unlocks unlimited generations and exports.
