- 1Paste the notes you want to learn into the box. A page or two of text works best.

- 3Flip through the cards here, or download the CSV and import it into Anki, Quizlet or another flashcard app.
What makes a good flashcard
A good card asks one thing and has one short answer. The generator is told to write cards like that: a single fact, term or idea per card, phrased as a question you have to answer from memory, not a sentence you only have to recognise.
Check every card against your notes before you rely on it. AI can misread a passage or leave out a qualifier, and you know your course better than it does. Edit or delete anything that is wrong.
Limits of the free tool
To keep it free, each visitor gets up to 5 sets a day, each up to 10 cards from up to 8,000 characters of text. Only pasted text is accepted here; files are not.
Your text is sent to our AI provider to write the cards and is not saved to an account. Don't paste anything confidential or anything you aren't allowed to share.
When you need more than 10 cards
Type to Study does this for a whole course. Upload a PDF course book, Word file or your notes (scanned pages are read with OCR) and it builds units and lessons, turns every key term into a flashcard on a spaced-repetition schedule, and adds quizzes with typed answers and a graded final exam. It has a 7-day free trial with no card needed.
Questions
Is the AI flashcard generator really free?
Yes. There's no account and no payment. Each visitor gets up to 5 sets a day so the tool can stay free.
How many flashcards can it make?
Up to 10 cards per set, from up to 8,000 characters of pasted text, and up to 5 sets a day.
Can I import the cards into Anki or Quizlet?
Yes. Download the CSV file. Anki imports it with File, Import, and Quizlet accepts the same question and answer pairs when you paste or import them into a new set.
Can I upload a PDF?
Not in this free tool, which takes pasted text only. Type to Study, the full app, builds a course with flashcards from PDF, Word, text and Markdown files, including scanned pages.
Are the cards always correct?
Not always. AI can make mistakes, so check each card against your notes and fix or delete any that are wrong.
Is my text stored?
Your text is sent to our AI provider to write the cards. It isn't saved to an account or shown to anyone else. Don't paste confidential material.
