Effortlessly Create Flashcards: The Speed of AI, Not GoodNotes

Tired of manually transferring lecture slides or textbook chapters into your study apps? Upload your PDFs, PPTs, or images—or simply type a prompt—and our AI instantly transforms them into dynamic, spaced-repetition flashcards.

No credit card required

Beyond Static Notes: Smarter Study Tools

We combine powerful AI generation with proven cognitive science techniques to maximize retention while minimizing your prep time.

Instant File Ingestion

Upload directly from your device: PDFs, DOCX, and PowerPoint files are parsed immediately. Capture content from visual notes or images faster than manual entry.

Adaptive Spaced Repetition

Our system schedules reviews based on established learning algorithms, ensuring you revisit difficult concepts precisely when you are about to forget them, optimizing long-term memory.

Flexible Generation Prompts

If you don't have a file, just describe the topic. Ask the AI to create cards on 'Quantum Mechanics fundamentals' and receive ready-to-study material in seconds.

Exam Date Focus

Set your target exam date, and the scheduling algorithm prioritizes content review velocity to ensure you are fully prepared right when it matters most.

From Source Material to Spaced Review in 3 Steps

We streamline the study workflow so you spend less time organizing and more time mastering the material.

  1. 1

    1. Input Your Knowledge Source

    Upload your existing study files (PDF, DOCX, PPT, images) or input a topic prompt directly into our system.

  2. 2

    2. AI Generation & Review Setup

    Our AI instantly generates atomic flashcards. Optionally, set your exam date or choose the advanced model for premium users.

  3. 3

    3. Master Content with Scheduling

    Begin studying immediately. Our system tracks your performance and uses spaced repetition scheduling to guide your optimal study sessions.

Why AI Beats Manual Note Conversion for Flashcards

Creating flashcards manually, especially when migrating from robust note-taking applications like GoodNotes, is a significant drain on study time. Creating flashcards GoodNotes users often do by hand involves tedious copy-pasting and formatting, which introduces delays and burnout before studying even begins. Our AI solution eliminates this bottleneck entirely by ingesting your source material—be it lecture slides saved as PPTs or detailed PDF readings—and applying the principles of active recall automatically. This efficiency translates directly into more time spent practicing retrieval, which is the cornerstone of effective learning.

  • Converting lecture slides to study tools
  • Generating quiz questions from textbook chapters
  • Creating study guides for certification exams
  • Rapidly processing visual notes into digital cards

For complex subjects requiring deep conceptual understanding, simply prompt the AI for specific learning outcomes. Furthermore, leveraging spaced repetition ensures that the effort you put into generating the deck yields maximum long-term retention benefits, a feature often requiring complex manual configuration in other digital study environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers regarding file processing and advanced learning features.

Can I share the flashcards the AI generated with classmates?

Yes, after generation, you can create a public link to share your high-quality, AI-generated study set with anyone instantly.

What is the difference between the free and paid plans?

The free plan offers ample credits using our standard model. The paid tier provides significantly more generation credits and access to our most advanced, nuanced AI model for complex topics.

Does the AI allow me to edit the cards after generation?

Currently, the AI focuses purely on high-speed, high-quality generation. Editing functionality is not yet available, but creation is instantaneous.

How is spaced repetition scheduling managed?

The system uses proprietary algorithms based on cognitive science to track your mastery level and prompts you to review cards at optimal intervals before forgetting occurs.
