Flashcards

Automatic flashcards. Review just before you forget.

ExamFlow pulls key concepts from your syllabus and turns them into front/back cards. It shows them at the exact moment before your memory loses them — spaced repetition based on real science.

"I studied last week and now I can't remember a thing."

How flashcards work

Automatic generation + review algorithm. You just say "I knew it" or "I missed it".

  1. 1

    Generate your set from a topic

    ExamFlow reads the topic and creates front/back cards automatically with key concepts and definitions.

  2. 2

    Review when it's time

    The spaced-repetition algorithm calculates the optimal moment to show you each card again.

  3. 3

    Mark whether you knew it

    Your answer adjusts the next review date. What you master moves further out, what you miss comes back sooner.

Why flashcards beat rereading

Retention isn't reading a lot — it's recalling at the right moment.

  • Scientific spaced repetition

    Based on the spacing effect (Ebbinghaus). It's not reviewing more: it's reviewing at the exact moment.

  • Generated from YOUR syllabus

    ExamFlow extracts concepts from your notes. Zero generic content, zero flashcards from a book you don't use.

  • Editable front/back

    If a flashcard doesn't convince you, edit it or delete it. Your set, your control.

  • Study from your phone

    Flashcards work in browser and mobile app. Review on the bus or in the supermarket queue in 5-minute sessions.

  • Sets per topic

    Each topic has its own set. Combine several or only review the one that hurts most.

  • Measured progress

    ExamFlow tracks which cards you master and which you miss. You see your retention percentage by set.

Rereading notes vs flashcards with spaced repetition

Rereading is passive. Flashcards force you to recall.

Without ExamFlow

  • You read a page for the tenth time and think you know it — but your mind saw it, didn't recall it.
  • You review everything every week, not knowing what needs more review.
  • Commercial flashcards (Anki, Quizlet) require you to create them.
  • You don't know what percentage of your syllabus you actually remember.

With ExamFlow

  • The card forces you to remember before seeing the answer. It activates recall, not recognition.
  • You only review what you're about to forget. The rest moves further out.
  • ExamFlow generates them automatically from your syllabus. Time saved.
  • Clear metrics: what you master, what you struggle with, what to review today.

Flashcards — frequently asked questions

What is spaced repetition?

A learning technique that distributes reviews at increasing intervals. Instead of rereading everything daily, you review each item just before forgetting it. Scientifically proven since Ebbinghaus (1885).

Can I edit AI-generated flashcards?

Yes. Each card is editable, deletable and duplicable. If one doesn't convince you, change it or remove it from the set.

Does it generate flashcards from any kind of material?

It works best with definitions, concepts, laws, dates and processes. For very narrative topics (history, literature) it does generate cards but the format is less optimal than for technical topics.

How many flashcards does it generate per topic?

Depends on topic size. Usually between 15 and 60 cards per topic. You can generate more if needed and delete the ones that don't help.

How many credits does a set cost?

Each generated set costs 4 credits. Reviewing it afterwards is free: repeat it as often as you like.

Does progress sync across devices?

Yes. Your account saves progress in the cloud — start reviewing on your laptop and continue on mobile.
