Convert study PDFs into Anki-ready flashcards

Turn lecture notes, textbooks, outlines, and review guides into editable, cloze-first Anki decks — then export a .apkg in minutes.

Drop in a PDF and GuruOwl reads every page, finds the testable facts, and writes structured flashcards — cloze deletions, clean fronts and backs, and source page references. It is built for the full workflow, not just a wall of Q&A: you review the draft against the original, then export a real Anki package.

Unlike a generic chatbot, GuruOwl keeps cards atomic and exam-shaped, tags them, and even turns labeled diagrams into image-occlusion cards. You stay in control — nothing is final until you say so.

Reads the whole PDF

Up to 50 MB — textbooks, dense lecture slides, scanned-and-OCR’d notes. It works through every page, not just the first few.

Structured, not flat

Cloze-first cards with mechanism and clinical context where it helps — the depth premade decks are known for, generated from your own material.

Editable before export

Every draft card is yours to tighten, merge, or delete against the source — so the final deck is what you actually need to review.

Real .apkg export

Download a standard Anki package — works in Anki Desktop, AnkiMobile, AnkiDroid, and AnkiWeb. Or push straight to Anki with one click.
