The Smartest Way to Make Your Own Online Flashcards

Stop wasting time typing notes. Upload your PDFs, DOCX, presentations, or images, or simply type a topic, and let our AI instantly generate high-yield flashcards tailored to your study material.

No credit card required

Engineered for Efficient Learning and Mastery

We combine powerful content ingestion with proven cognitive science principles to ensure your self-made flashcards lead to genuine retention, not just memorization.

Multi-Format Content Ingestion

Upload lecture slides (PPT), documents (PDF/DOCX), or even image scans of handwritten notes. Our system extracts key concepts automatically, saving you hours of manual data entry.

Adaptive Spaced Repetition Scheduling

Cards are automatically scheduled based on proven learning algorithms. This scientific approach ensures you review challenging material just before you forget it, maximizing long-term memory.

Goal-Oriented Study Pacing

Set your target exam date, and our scheduler adjusts the review frequency dynamically. This focused system helps prevent last-minute cramming and builds confidence leading up to your assessment.

Effortless Prompt Generation

If you don't have materials handy, just ask! Type a subject (e.g., 'Constitutional Law principles') and receive a complete, review-ready deck designed for active recall.

From Source Material to Study Ready in Three Steps

Creating powerful, personalized study decks is simpler and faster than traditional methods, leveraging AI to handle the heavy lifting.

  1. 1

    Step 1: Input Your Study Data

    Upload your essential files (PDF, DOCX, PPT, images) or use the prompt box to describe the topic you need to learn. Be specific for the best results.

  2. 2

    Step 2: AI Generation & Review

    Our engine processes the content, extracting Q&A pairs and structuring them into atomic flashcards. Review the draft to ensure accuracy against your source text.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Start Your Personalized Study Session

    Your deck is now scheduled using spaced repetition. Set your exam date and begin practicing active recall immediately for superior knowledge retention.

Master Any Subject by Customizing Your Online Flashcards

The ability to **make your own online flashcards** tailored precisely to your curriculum is the cornerstone of efficient studying. Unlike static, pre-made decks that cover generic information, our tool ensures every card directly addresses the specific concepts you struggled with in class or in your readings. This targeted approach, powered by AI understanding of your input material, dramatically improves study efficiency. By focusing exclusively on your identified knowledge gaps, you engage in meaningful active recall, which cognitive science shows is far superior to passive review.

  • Generate chemistry formula cards from lab reports.
  • Create vocabulary decks directly from imported reading assignments.
  • Develop case study outlines from presentation files.
  • Automate complex concept mapping into Q&A format.

Our system supports sharing capabilities via a public link, allowing study groups to instantly access the exact same high-quality, AI-generated materials you created. We offer a generous free tier so you can test the speed and accuracy of generation before committing to advanced features like premium AI models.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers about generating and using your custom study decks.

Is there a cost to make my own online flashcards?

The core functionality to generate and use AI flashcards is completely free. We offer a paid plan for users needing higher generation limits or access to our most advanced AI model.

Can I upload a PowerPoint file to create cards?

Yes, you can upload PowerPoint (.ppt) files. The AI will extract text and structure content from slides to form targeted questions and answers.

How does the spaced repetition scheduling work?

The algorithm tracks your performance on each card. Material you struggle with appears sooner, while mastered concepts are shown less frequently, optimizing your study timeline based on memory decay rates.

Can I share the flashcards I created with classmates?

Absolutely. Once a deck is generated, you can easily create a public sharing link, allowing others to view and utilize your custom study set instantly.
