Flashcards need one clear question and one clear answer, and rewriting every line by hand takes longer than the revision itself. This tool reads your notes and writes question-and-answer cards that keep your own terms, names and examples.
What you get
Keeps your own terms
Names, abbreviations and examples from your notes stay as they were written, so the cards match what your teacher used in class.
One fact per card
Each card asks one question and gives one answer, which is the format that works best for quick self-testing.
Same language as your notes
If your notes are in Spanish, German or another language, the cards are written in that language rather than translated into English.
How it works
- Step 1
Paste your notes into the box above, or type them in shorthand exactly as you wrote them.

Press the button and read the preview, which shows the first cards in the Q and A format.

Questions
What does the free preview show?
The preview shows the first flashcards built from your notes, so you can check the format and the content. A free account gives you the full deck.
Will the cards keep the names and examples from my notes?
Yes. The tool is asked to keep the terms, names and examples from your notes, and to use only facts that appear in them. It does not add outside information.
Can I export the flashcards to Anki?
With a free account you can export the deck for Anki and similar flashcard apps. The preview only shows part of the deck, so the export needs the full result.
Can the cards contain mistakes?
Yes, flashcards generated from notes can contain mistakes, especially where shorthand is unclear. Check the cards against your original notes or your textbook before an exam or any decision that matters.
My notes are in a photo or a scan. Can I use them?
Photos of handwritten notes and scanned pages need a free account, which adds text recognition and longer files. The preview works with pasted or typed text.
