Frequently Asked Questions
Get clarity on how our free AI flashcard generator works and how it fits into your existing study routine.
Is the AI flashcard generation truly unlimited on the free plan?
The free tier provides a substantial amount of generation credits monthly. For heavy users or very large courses, our paid plans offer increased capacity and access to a more advanced AI model.
Can I upload notes written in a foreign language?
Our AI model handles content analysis across several major languages. Upload your documents, and the system will attempt to generate accurate flashcards based on the input provided.
What is spaced repetition and how does the app use it?
Spaced repetition is a learning technique where review intervals increase as you remember information better. The app tracks your performance and automatically adjusts when you need to see each card next.
How do I set a target exam date?
During the generation step, or immediately after creation, you will find an option to input your exam date. This helps the system prioritize the most critical material review cycles leading up to that day.
