Deckbase is an AI flashcard maker. Turn PDFs, lecture notes, photos and chat prompts into flashcards in seconds, edit the drafts, then study them with spaced repetition, quizzes and audio.
Why Deckbase:
- Flashcards from your study materials
Upload PDFs, notes, images, DOCX, Excel or CSV and get a first draft of flashcards in seconds. Review and edit every card before you study.
- AI chat assistant
Name a topic or ask a question in chat and get a deck back instantly.
- Scan pages with your camera
Take a photo of a textbook page or handout and turn the text into cards without typing.
- AI images and voice
Add mnemonic images and natural pronunciation audio to every card. Great for vocabulary and language learning.
- Listen to your decks
Turn a deck into an audio track and review on a walk, on your commute or at the gym. Tracks can read each block's label aloud, so you always know what you're hearing.
- Quizzes that keep you sharp
Test yourself with multiple choice, matching, word order and typed answers. Build streaks, and tap "I don't know" to see the answer instead of guessing.
- A review scheduler you can trust
Reviews follow proven SM-2 and FSRS scheduling, with per-deck presets for new cards, daily limits and learning steps.
- Works with your Anki decks
Import .apkg files with their note types and layouts, or export back anytime. No lock-in.
- Study anywhere
Your decks and progress sync between iPhone, iPad and the web. Deckbase is available in 45 languages.
- For every kind of learner
Exam prep, medical school, nursing, language vocabulary, certifications and professional learning.
How it works:
1. Add a file, a photo or a chat prompt
2. Review and edit the AI draft
3. Study with spaced repetition, quizzes and audio tracks

Thought I found an actual free alternative to Anki, but is useless since I can’t even import a CSV or APKG files. I tried multiple times, even tried minimally small test files…. still doesn’t work. Just stays on the uploading screen with no changes. I guess it may be good for manual creation, but loading in external files? Nah
