AnKing v12 has roughly 35,000 cards. It's the spine of Step prep for a reason — it covers the high-yield material and most students who finish it do well on boards. We're not here to replace it. We're here to fill the gap between AnKing and your specific rotation, your specific professor, and the chapters you happen to be weakest on.
The honest truth: AnKing is a generic deck. It doesn't know which lectures your school assigns extra weight to, what your shelf exam is going to emphasize, or which First Aid pages you've already mastered. It can't make you a 30-card deck on a specific Pathoma chapter you struggled with last week. That's what Scholarly does.
Upload First Aid, Pathoma, Sketchy, BootCamp.com notes, or your own lecture PDFs, and Scholarly's AI USMLE flashcard generator writes a personalized question-and-answer deck from the content. Every card gets its own spaced-repetition schedule (an SM-2 style algorithm), and paid plans can export the deck to Anki if you want to review it with FSRS.
The other thing AnKing can't do: real-time. Hit a topic you don't understand mid-rotation, drop the relevant chapter in, and have a focused deck on your phone before your next case presentation. Pair this with a practice exam from the same material for a complete study loop.
