⚡ Free AI flashcard maker

An AI flashcard maker that reads your own notes

Drop in a PDF, a slide deck, or a page of notes. You get a full deck of question-and-answer cards built from the material you are actually being tested on.

PDF, PowerPoint, Word, or a link · up to 10 MB · start without an account

From file to flashcards in three steps

  1. 1

    Upload your material

    A PDF, a PowerPoint, a Word document, or plain notes. You can also paste a link to a page you are studying from.

  2. 2

    GeniusPal reads it

    It works out which ideas carry the material and turns each one into a card with a real question on the front.

  3. 3

    Study the deck

    Flip through the cards, rate yourself honestly, and let GeniusPal bring the ones you missed back around.

Why this beats typing cards

Cards worth studying, not busywork

  • Built from your material

    The deck comes from the file you uploaded, so it matches your syllabus and your lecturer rather than a set someone else uploaded.

  • Both sides written for you

    The slow part of flashcards is phrasing the question. GeniusPal writes the prompt and the answer, and you edit anything that reads wrong.

  • Three ways to work the same deck

    Study the cards, sit a 10-question quiz, or close the deck and write the answers from memory.

  • It remembers what you missed

    Cards you rate as missed come back sooner than the ones you already know, so your time lands on the weak spots.

AI flashcard maker questions

Is the AI flashcard maker free?

Yes, you can generate your first sets without paying and without entering a card. Paid plans raise how many sets you can generate each month.

What files can I turn into flashcards?

PDF, PowerPoint (.pptx), Word (.docx), plain text, Markdown, and CSV, up to 10 MB. You can also paste a link to a page and GeniusPal will read the text on it.

Can I edit the cards it writes?

Yes. The generated deck is a starting point, and you should read it before you trust it. Anything phrased badly can be changed.

Can I export the deck to Anki or Quizlet?

No. GeniusPal is where you study the deck rather than a converter that hands cards to another app, so there is no export today. If exporting is essential to your workflow, a dedicated converter will serve you better.
