No credit card required

Streamline Your Study Workflow

Move beyond manual creation. Our tool integrates directly with your existing learning resources to build effective study systems instantly.

Multi-Format Ingestion

Upload common academic files like PDFs, DOCX, and PPTX, or even image scans. We handle the parsing to extract core concepts automatically.

Spaced Repetition Scheduling

Flashcards are automatically scheduled based on proven cognitive science principles, maximizing retention for long-term memory encoding.

Set Your Deadline

Input your exam or test date, and the system helps structure your review sessions leading up to that critical day, ensuring preparedness.

Effortless Sharing

Generate a public link for any set of cards, making collaboration simple for study groups or sharing review materials with peers.

From Document to Active Recall in Three Steps

We use advanced AI to transform passive reading into targeted, reviewable knowledge structures tailored for optimal memory recall.

    3. Begin Your Smart Study Session

    Dive directly into testing with spaced repetition scheduling actively managing when you need to review each card next. No manual input required.

Master Any Subject with an Intelligent Flashcard Generator

The flashcard generator transforms tedious study preparation into a fast, efficient process rooted in learning science. Instead of spending hours manually transcribing notes into flashcards, our AI extracts the critical information from your uploaded files (PDFs, PowerPoints, etc.) and builds topic-specific active recall prompts. This capability is crucial for students facing large volumes of reading material, enabling them to focus their limited time on reviewing rather than formatting.

  • Generating flashcards from scanned textbook images
  • Creating study sets optimized for specific exam dates
  • Utilizing AI output for efficient spaced repetition cycles
  • Sharing complex topic summaries via unique public links
  • Adopting active recall methods without manual effort

Leveraging this technology means you are adopting a superior study workflow. The generated cards prioritize the core concepts, forcing the active recall necessary for knowledge consolidation, far surpassing the effectiveness of passive highlighting or simple note rereading.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common queries about uploading materials and utilizing the AI features.

What file types can I upload to the flashcard generator?

You can upload PDFs, Microsoft Word documents (DOCX), PowerPoint presentations (PPTX), and image files containing text.

Is the spaced repetition system customizable?

The core scheduling algorithm is optimized based on cognitive science best practices. While you set the overall study goal date, the specific intervals are managed by the AI for maximum retention.

Is there a cost associated with using the flashcard generator?

The core functionality is entirely free to use. We offer a paid subscription for users who require higher daily generation credits or access to our most advanced AI model.

Can I edit the flashcards after the AI generates them?

Currently, the system focuses purely on automated generation from source files to maintain speed and efficiency. Editing functionality is planned for future updates.
