How to generate flashcards with AI
Turn a topic or your notes into a study-ready deck in three steps. No manual card-writing.
Paste your notes or a topic
Type a topic like "the water cycle" or paste your class notes. Pick a card style and how many cards you want.
AI writes the flashcards
The AI reads your content, pulls out the key facts, and writes atomic, active-recall cards as Q&A, term-definition, or cloze (fill-in-the-blank).
Download or export
Download a printable PDF of double-sided cut-out cards, or export to Anki (.apkg), Quizlet, or CSV.
Study-ready flashcards from any text
Free & no sign-up
It is 100% free and needs no account. Add your file or paste your text, choose a card style and a card count, and get a deck back in seconds.

Safe and secure
We process every file over an encrypted connection. We delete your file and the deck we generate after delivery, and we never store them, share them, or use them to train models.

Skip manual card-writing
Skip the hours you would spend copying facts onto cards. The AI writes atomic, active-recall flashcards you can use as they are or refine. Active recall and spaced repetition are the study methods research backs.
