  • Leverage AI for concept extraction directly from your documents.
  • Ensure learning is personalized to the exact emphasis of your course materials.
  • Utilize scientifically proven study scheduling for maximum retention.

Frequently Asked Questions on AI Note Conversion

Answers regarding file handling, generation quality, and using AI for personalized learning.

How does the AI generate questions from my uploaded documents?

The AI uses advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify core concepts, definitions, relationships, and key terminology within your PDF or image content, framing them as targeted question/answer pairs.

What file formats can I upload to generate my flashcards?

You can upload standard formats including PDF, DOCX, and PowerPoint files. You can also use images containing typed notes or use a direct text prompt if you prefer not to upload a file.

Is generating flashcards from my own notes superior to using pre-made decks?

Yes. Pre-made decks often miss nuances specific to your course structure or professor's emphasis. AI generation ensures 100% relevance to the material you are actually being tested on.

Is it free to try turning my notes into flashcards?

The tool is free to start using with a generous allocation of generation credits. For heavy users needing access to premium models or unlimited scheduling, we offer affordable paid subscription plans.
