How it works
- Paste 40–8,000 characters of notes, or upload a PDF (up to 10 MB, 200 pages) and pick a page.
- Generate a draft deck.
- Check each question and answer against your notes. Edit the misses.
- Study in Piply, or download the cards as a CSV.
Why your own notes beat someone else's set
Your lecturer's examples, your wording, your exam. A borrowed set skips what your course actually covered. Starting from your notes keeps the deck on the syllabus.
What makes a good card
One idea per card. Ask a question you could actually be asked, not a sentence with a word blanked out. If you still can't answer it a week later without peeking, it stays in the deck.
Check before you study
Generated cards can miss details or get things wrong. Compare each answer with your notes and fix it before you rely on it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it free?
Yes. The browser tool works without an account. Saving a deck to Piply needs sign-in, and app limits depend on your plan.
Can I use handwritten notes?
This browser tool needs typed text or a PDF with selectable text. Photos of handwriting won't work here.
Can I export to Anki or Quizlet?
You can download a CSV with question and answer columns. Check the other app's import format; this page doesn't import directly.
Do I need to check the cards?
Yes. Generated cards can omit details or contain mistakes. Compare them with your notes before you study.
