How Lecture to Flashcards Works

Scholarly's lecture to flashcards converter reads through your lecture slides, notes, or transcripts and identifies the core concepts, definitions, and key takeaways. It then generates question-and-answer flashcards that cover everything you need to know for your exam.

Instead of spending hours after class rewriting lecture content into flashcards, upload your materials and let the AI do the work. You get a complete flashcard deck in seconds, ready for spaced repetition study or a quick review before your next class.
