Prepare for exams with your own notes. Turn them into flashcards, check the answers, then follow a daily review plan.
Approve the cards you want, then let spaced repetition build a clear daily review plan. Exam Profiles adjust terminology, question style, and answer depth for the test you are preparing for.
Your saved cards, decks, and progress stay yours — even if you cancel Premium.
From material to cards
Start free with a topic, pasted text, or photo. Premium also supports PDFs, document scans, audio recordings, YouTube links, arXiv papers, and supported web pages.
Cards appear as they are generated. Check each question and answer, improve the wording, remove anything weak or repetitive, choose a deck, and save only the cards worth studying.
Review on schedule
• Daily Goal gives every session a finish line
• Daily Mix combines material across decks
• Weak Spots returns to concepts that need another pass
• Learn introduces new cards without hiding due reviews
Plan for your exam
Create an Exam Plan around your date, available study days, and decks. Exam Profiles adjust terminology, question style, topic emphasis, and answer depth for the exam you select.
Selected topic guides help you organize your own cards for GED subjects, the SAT and PSAT/NMSQT, core ACT sections, and supported AP courses.
