Why Our AI Outperforms Manual Creation

Focus your energy on reviewing, not formatting. Our platform understands your source material to build better recall prompts.

Universal Document Input

Upload common file types—PDFs, PowerPoint slides, or even images of handwritten notes. Our AI processes the content regardless of the source format.

Optimized for Active Recall

The system intelligently structures questions based on core concepts found in your material, maximizing the effectiveness of active recall practice.

Built-in Spaced Repetition

Forget external scheduling tools. Our proprietary algorithm manages when you see each card next, aligning study intervals with cognitive science principles.

Deadline-Driven Scheduling

Simply enter your exam date, and the system adjusts review pacing to ensure critical material is reinforced just before your assessment.

Your Smarter Study Workflow in Three Steps

Generating complex study sets used to take hours. Now, it takes minutes to build robust study material ready for immediate practice.

  1. 1

    1. Upload Your Source Files

    Select all relevant materials—be it research papers, lecture slides, or textbook chapters—and upload them securely to our platform.

  2. 2

    2. AI Generates Cards & Schedule

    Our AI instantly scans the content, extracts key facts, and crafts precise question/answer pairs. Optionally, set your target exam date.

  3. 3

    3. Start Practicing Immediately

    Access your new, perfectly timed flashcards. The system handles the spaced repetition schedule, helping you retain information long-term.

Transitioning from Manual Anki Card Creation to Automated Learning

To create Anki cards manually is a significant time investment that often leads to burnout before the exam even arrives. Our service addresses this bottleneck directly by automating the extraction and formatting process, allowing you to leverage the proven power of spaced repetition without the drudgery of manual entry. This shift in workflow moves your focus from rote formatting to genuine comprehension and application, which is crucial for mastering complex subjects.

  • Automated flashcard generation from PowerPoint
  • Creating study aids from lengthy PDF documents
  • Optimizing review cycles using cognitive science
  • Sharing customized study sets via a public link
  • Utilizing advanced models for complex technical content

For students facing dense course loads, the efficiency gained is transformative. Instead of spending evenings transcribing notes into the Anki desktop application, you can upload the source material, trust the AI to structure high-yield questions, and immediately begin the active recall process necessary for embedding knowledge firmly in long-term memory.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about using AI to build your study materials.

Can I export the cards to use in my existing Anki application?

Currently, our platform facilitates practice directly within our system, leveraging our integrated spaced repetition scheduler. We focus on providing a seamless, end-to-end study experience.

What is the difference between the free plan and the paid plan?

The free plan allows for a set number of generations using our standard model. The paid plan offers significantly more generation credits and access to our more advanced, highly accurate AI model.

How does the system handle diagrams or complex charts in documents?

The AI is highly effective at extracting text surrounding diagrams and figures. For purely visual data that requires subjective interpretation, manual review of the source file is always recommended.

What file types are supported for document upload?

We support PDF, DOCX, PPTX (PowerPoint), and various image formats (PNG, JPG) to ensure maximum compatibility with your existing notes.
