Convert Any PDF to Flashcards Instantly with AI
Stop summarizing manually. Upload your lecture notes, textbooks, or research papers and let our AI transform complex documents into effective, spaced-repetition flashcards.
No credit card required
From Static Document to Dynamic Learning
Leverage the power of artificial intelligence to automate the most tedious part of studying: synthesizing information into reviewable formats.
Universal Document Ingestion
Easily upload PDFs, DOCX, PowerPoint slides, or even image files. Our system intelligently parses text, tables, and figures to capture core concepts.
Science-Backed Scheduling
Every card utilizes optimized spaced repetition algorithms. Study smarter, not harder, by reviewing information right before you're due to forget it.
Exam Date Targeting
Input your target exam date, and the system calibrates the review schedule frequency, ensuring you peak at the right moment for maximum retention.
Effortless Sharing & Collaboration
Generate a public link for any deck to quickly share your AI-generated study set with classmates or study groups without needing an account.
Your Study Workflow, Automated
Creating high-quality active recall practice material has never been faster or more reliable. Follow these three simple steps.

3. Start Your Optimized Review
Begin practicing immediately. The system tracks your performance and automatically queues cards for review based on proven cognitive science principles.
Mastering Content Through AI Flashcard Generation
Generating high-quality, targeted flashcards from dense study material like a stack of PDFs is the key to effective learning, and our tool makes the pdf to flashcards conversion process seamless. Instead of spending hours highlighting, retyping notes, or manually creating Q&A pairs, you leverage sophisticated natural language processing models designed to identify core concepts. This transition supports immediate application of active recall, forcing your brain to retrieve knowledge rather than passively re-reading source text, a proven method for long-term memory encoding.
- Converting complex textbook chapters into study sets
- Transforming meeting notes or white papers into review quizzes
- Generating targeted questions from research article PDFs
- Creating study material from presentation slides (PPT/Images)
The efficiency gained by automating this extraction frees up critical study time, allowing you to focus on the spaced repetition schedule itself. By ensuring the flashcards adhere to the principles of atomic questions—one concept per card—we maximize the benefit derived from every review session, leading to better preparedness for exams or professional certifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about document processing, pricing, and study features.
What file formats can I upload besides PDF?
We support DOCX, common image formats (like JPEG/PNG for scanned pages), and PowerPoint files, ensuring broad compatibility with your existing materials.
Is the card generation process editable?
Currently, the focus is on speed and initial high-quality AI generation. While editing is not available, you can refine your output by adjusting the source document quality or generating a new set.
How does the spaced repetition scheduling work?
The system analyzes your correct and incorrect responses to adapt the review intervals. Cards you struggle with appear sooner, while mastered concepts are shown less frequently.
Is there a cost associated with generating cards?
The basic service tier is completely free, offering ample credits for everyday studying. A paid subscription unlocks higher volume limits and access to our most advanced AI model.
