Flashcard Generator Q&A
Upload a PDF or Word document and get free AI-generated Q&A flashcards to study from. Text is extracted on your device first -- only that extracted text, not the file itself, is sent to generate them.
How it works
- Choose a PDF or Word document.
- Scanquil reads the text on your device (OCR runs automatically for scanned PDF pages).
- Tap through the generated flashcards -- tap a card to flip it.
Features
- Free, no sign-up, no watermark
- Accepts PDF and Word (.docx) documents
- Text extraction happens on your device -- only the extracted text is sent to generate flashcards
- Works on scanned PDFs too, via automatic on-device OCR
- Save the generated flashcards to a group -- reopen the group later to flip through them again, not just read flattened text
- Works on any modern phone, tablet, or desktop browser
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 file uploaded anywhere?
The 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.
How is this different from Document Summarizer?
This tool makes question-and-answer pairs meant for studying and testing recall. Document Summarizer skips the Q&A entirely -- each card is just one key point from the document, meant for a quick read-through rather than quizzing yourself.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes -- it works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet, or desktop, with no app to install.
