  • The AI ensures question atomicity, which is crucial for effective active recall.
  • It automatically incorporates spaced repetition scheduling tailored to your pace.
  • Cards are generated directly from your specific course materials, ensuring relevance.

By automating the conversion of dense study material into perfectly structured review items, we maximize your study efficiency, turning hours spent formatting into minutes spent mastering concepts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clarifying how our AI tool builds and manages your personalized study assets.

How does the AI determine which information becomes a flashcard question?

The AI uses natural language processing to identify key concepts, definitions, dates, and causal relationships within your uploaded text, prioritizing items that require retrieval practice for high-retention learning.
