    The cards that matter

    Deciding what deserves a card can be the difference between knowing and not knowing something on exam day.

    The deck is built from the session objectives, the summary slides, and the way your professor words things.

    What every card includes

    We build your deck directly from your source material, so you can spend that time actually practicing active recall.

    • The right number of cards for the material, not one per bullet point
    • The right question for each fact, worded so you can’t answer it by recognition
    • The slide it came from on the card, so you know exactly where the information is
    • A dropdown with a further explanation
    • Key terms highlighted, with what each one means and where the word comes from

    Ready for Anki

    Active recall means trying to answer a question from memory before checking the answer, and Anki gives you that practice one question at a time.

    The deck downloads as an .apkg file that Anki imports.

    How it works

    Upload one lecture as a PDF or PowerPoint.

    The system is three simple steps you do for every one of your lectures:

    • Understand the why behind the information: the Story
    • Memorize with active recall: the Anki deck
    • Apply it to real exam questions: the practice exam
