Upload a PDF and get free AI-generated flashcards to study from. Text is extracted on your device first -- only that extracted text, not the file itself, is sent to generate them.

Frequently asked questions
Is generating flashcards free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermark, and no limit on how often you use it.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
The PDF file itself never leaves your device -- its text is extracted locally first. Only that extracted text is sent to generate the flashcards, and it isn't stored anywhere after the request completes.
How many flashcards does it generate?
Typically 10-15 per document, covering what the AI judges to be the most important concepts. Very short documents may produce fewer.
Does this work on scanned PDFs?
Yes -- pages with no text layer are read with free on-device OCR automatically before generating flashcards, same as the PDF to Text tool.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes -- it works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet, or desktop, with no app to install.
