Frequently Asked Questions About Video Card Generation

Clarifying how our AI handles multimedia input.

How does the AI generate questions from a YouTube video link?

The AI accesses the publicly available transcript or subtitle data associated with the video URL. It then uses advanced natural language processing to identify assertions, definitions, and relationships, transforming them into targeted Q&A formats.

What file types can I upload if the video is not public?

While the primary method is URL input, you can upload related documents like PDF lecture slides, DOCX summaries, or even images of notes taken during the video to supplement the AI's understanding.

Is using an AI flashcard maker better than pre-made video decks?

Yes, because relevance is key. Pre-made decks are generic. Our AI ensures the flashcards are perfectly calibrated to the exact content, emphasis, and terminology used in your specific lecture video.

Is the ability to make flashcards from YouTube videos free to try?

The core service, including the ability to generate study decks from video sources, is available for free up to a certain generation credit limit, allowing you to test the speed and accuracy.
