AI flashcard and quiz maker (Anki)
Turn notes or a textbook page into Anki-ready flashcards, or into a review quiz with an answer key.
Your key stays in your browser.It goes straight to the provider, never to our servers, and we neither log nor keep it. Use a dedicated key with a spending cap, and delete it in the provider's dashboard when you are done.
Input
Result
The result will appear here.Writing good flashcards takes longer than reading the material, which is why most people stop making them. Paste a page of notes, documentation or a textbook section and get either Anki cards — one fact per card, ready to import as a tab-separated text file — or a review quiz organised by learning objective, with an answer key at the end. The cards follow the principles in Fabric's to_flashcards pattern: minimum information per card, wording optimised for fast recall, and no references to "the text", so each card still makes sense months later.
How it works
- Flashcards come out one per line, question and answer separated by a tab, under #separator:tab and #html:false header lines so that recent Anki versions import them without asking.
- Quiz mode is Fabric's create_quiz: up to three challenging questions per learning objective, pitched at a senior-university or professional level unless your text names another.
- Unlike the original pattern, the quiz ends with an answer key, so you can test yourself first and check afterwards.
- Cards can be written in another language than the source — English documentation into Chinese cards, for instance — while code and identifiers stay as they are.
Where your data goes
With your own key, what you type and the key go from your browser straight to the provider you choose; neither passes through Hysen Labs. In hosted mode, your text goes through our server to our provider (DeepSeek) and is billed in credits; we keep the token counts and cost of each run for billing, never the text itself or the answer. How the provider handles the text is governed by its own privacy policy.
This tool handles keys and credentials, so nothing about a run is saved, not even to your own history.
About your API key
We do not collect, store or leak your key: it lives only in this page's memory (unless you tick “remember in this tab”) and is gone when you close it. Still, treat any key you have pasted into a web page with care — create a dedicated key with a spending cap for use here, and delete or rotate it in your provider's dashboard when you are done.
What it costs
This tool is free, with no sign-in and no points.
Common questions
- How do I import the cards into Anki?
- Download the result, which saves as a .txt file, then choose File → Import in Anki and pick it. The header lines tell Anki 2.1.55 and later that fields are tab-separated plain text; check that field 1 maps to Front and field 2 to Back, choose a deck and import. On older Anki versions, delete the two lines starting with # first.
- Why do some cards import wrongly?
- A card breaks if the model put a line break or a tab inside a question or answer, or used spaces instead of the tab. The prompt forbids all three and models usually comply, but glance at the preview in Anki's import dialog: a card with an empty back, or a question split across two rows, shows the problem at once.
- How many cards will I get?
- One per distinct fact — typically 10 to 30 for a page of material, fewer for a short passage, more for dense reference text. A model covers a short text more thoroughly than a long one, so for a whole chapter, run it section by section.
- Do I need an account?
- Not here. You need an API key from one of the listed providers — DeepSeek, Qwen, OpenAI, Claude and others — which the page uses to call that provider directly from your browser. Study material costs few tokens, so a dedicated key with a small spending cap is plenty; delete it when your deck is done.
The open-source behind it
This tool's prompt is adapted from danielmiessler/Fabric (MIT) and runs on the model you choose. To use the same capability from the command line or inside your own program, start with that project.
