Frequently asked questions
Is the AI flashcard generator free?
Yes. Making flashcard sets with AI is free, and so is studying them. All you need is a free Ekadem account. No credit card required.
What is an AI flashcard generator?
A tool that reads your study material and writes the flashcards for you. Instead of typing every term and definition yourself, you upload your notes, a PDF or your slides and get a finished set to study in seconds.
How do I make flashcards with AI?
Open Ekadem, choose Flashcard set and say what it should be about. Add your notes, a PDF or a photo of a vocabulary list if you have them, pick a card format, and your set is ready in seconds. You can edit every card afterwards.
Can I make flashcards from a PDF?
Yes. Upload the PDF and Ekadem writes the cards from what’s in it. The same works for Word documents, PowerPoint slides, plain text, screenshots and photos of your notes. You can also skip the upload and just describe the topic.
What kinds of cards can it make?
Terms and definitions, questions and answers, or true or false statements. You can also describe a format of your own, like a German word on the front and the English word with an example sentence on the back.
How can I study my flashcards?
Flip through the cards, or switch to typing mode and write each answer yourself. Practice only the cards you got wrong until they stick. Text-to-speech reads the cards out loud, and the study analytics show your score and time spent across every session.
Is Ekadem a good Quizlet alternative?
If you know Quizlet, you’ll feel at home: you get flashcard sets you can flip, type and go over again until you know them. The difference is that Ekadem writes the set for you from your own material, and that part is free.
Can I edit the cards the AI makes?
Yes. Change any card, add new ones or remove the ones you don’t need in a simple table. You can also add a picture to either side of a card.
Can I share a flashcard set?
Yes. Share a set with a link and your friends can study it too. Teachers can add sets to their class for everyone to practise with.
What languages does it work in?
Your cards can be in whatever language your material is in, which makes Ekadem a good fit for learning vocabulary. The app itself is available in 58 languages.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Ekadem runs in the browser on phones, tablets and laptops, with nothing to install. Swipe through your cards on the bus and pick up where you left off on your laptop.
Do you train AI on my notes?
No. Your material isn’t used to train AI models, we don’t sell personal information and there are no ads. AI can still make mistakes, so check anything that’s going into an exam. The AI Transparency Notice has the details.
