Is the AI flashcard generator free?

Yes. A free account includes 10 AI generations a month with up to 20 cards per deck. Premium raises this to 300 generations a month and 50 cards per deck.

Can I make flashcards without AI?

Yes. The manual flashcard tool lets you type or bulk-import cards, shuffle them and take a scored quiz, with no account needed.

What file types can I upload?

PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT and Markdown files with selectable text. Scanned image-only PDFs need OCR first.

Can I edit the generated cards?

Yes — decks are saved to your library, and you can regenerate or copy cards into the manual flashcard tool to adjust them.

How to make effective flashcards

Good flashcards test one idea at a time. When you review a generated deck, split any card that asks two things, and rewrite answers into your own words — the act of rewording is itself revision.

One fact, definition or step per card.
Ask a real question on the front rather than showing a bare keyword.
Keep answers short enough to recall in a few seconds.
Add cards for the things you keep getting wrong, not the things you already know.
Review in short sessions spread over days rather than one long cram.

Spaced repetition without an app

Review a new deck the same day, again after two days, then after a week. Each time, only re-test the cards you missed last round. Pair it with the study timer to keep sessions short and focused.
