How Notes to Flashcards Works

Scholarly's notes to flashcards converter uses AI to read through your study notes and identify the most important concepts, definitions, and facts. It then turns each key point into a question-and-answer flashcard that you can study immediately.

Whether your notes are typed in a Word doc, written in a PDF, or even handwritten on paper (just snap a photo), the AI understands your content and generates cards that cover what matters. You save hours of manual flashcard creation and can start studying right away.

Supported Note Formats

PDF Notes

Upload class notes, study guides, or summaries saved as PDFs. The AI extracts text and creates flashcards.

Typed Text

Paste notes directly from Google Docs, Notion, OneNote, or any text editor into Scholarly.

Word Documents

Upload .docx files with your lecture notes or study outlines for instant flashcard generation.

Handwritten Notes

Take a photo of handwritten notes and upload the image. Our AI reads your handwriting and creates cards.

Export Your Flashcards Anywhere

Once your flashcards are generated, you're not locked in. Export your cards to Anki, download them as a printable PDF, or save them as a CSV file. You can also study directly on Scholarly with built-in spaced repetition and exam mode to test your knowledge with AI-powered feedback.
