The notes you take during a lecture are rushed, half-finished, and easy to never look at again. Paste them — or a transcript of the recording — into our Lecture to Flashcards tool and the AI organizes the material into clear question-and-answer cards, filling in the structure your hurried notes were missing.

It works for how classes really run: a fifty-minute lecture, a seminar discussion, a recorded session you played back at double speed. The AI picks out the points the lecturer emphasized and frames them as recall questions, so reviewing means actively testing yourself instead of rereading messy notes. Cards are editable, so you can correct anything you mistyped in class or add a detail you remember. Then drill with quiz modes and spaced repetition so the lecture sticks well past the next class.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use messy in-class notes?

Yes. The AI is good at organizing rough, abbreviated notes into clear question-and-answer cards, filling in structure your quick notes left out.

Can I use a lecture transcript?

Yes. Paste a focused section of a transcript and review the generated cards. For longer lectures, split the transcript into topics. You can also import text-based PDF or Word notes up to 50MB with an account.

Does it test recall or just summarize?

It frames the key points as recall questions, so reviewing means actively testing yourself rather than rereading notes.
