Revise from your own lecture slides.
Upload your slides and get a mock quiz that matches your real one, plus flashcards, revision notes and cheat sheets. In minutes.

How it works
Lecture slides (PDF, PowerPoint or Word), and if you have them, past papers and what you know about the exam.
We work out the topics, question types, timing and difficulty. Change anything you like before it's written.
Take it like the real thing in exam mode, or learn as you go in study mode. Every attempt is different.
Everything you need to revise
Multiple choice, matching, fill-the-gap and scenarios, written from your slides.
Spaced repetition: rate each card and it comes back at the right time.
Scores over time, topics to work on, and questions you keep getting wrong.
Your tests on a calendar, with a countdown and how ready you are.
Lecture-by-lecture summaries with key terms, examples and common mistakes.
Packed onto one or two sides of A4, as blocks, a table or Q&A.

Questions
Is it free?
Your first quiz is free, no account needed. Sign up free and you get credits for a few more quizzes or sets of notes. After that you can buy credit packs, from 99p.
How does the quiz match my real one?
Upload your exam information (for example "20 minutes, 15 questions, open book, weeks 1–4") and any past papers. We use them to match the number of questions, time limit, question types and difficulty. You can see and change the plan before anything is written.
Are the answers always right?
They're written by AI from your slides and checked automatically, but AI can make mistakes. Every question shows an explanation and where it came from, so check anything that looks wrong against your notes. If you spot a mistake, use the Feedback link. We read every message.
Do you keep my slides?
No. Files are read once and deleted straight away. We keep only what we make for you, such as the quiz or notes. See our privacy notice.
What file types can I upload?
PDF, PowerPoint (.pptx), Word (.docx) and text files, up to 25 MB each. You can also paste text. Scanned images without text aren't supported yet.
What's a credit, and do they expire?
Credits pay for making things: a practice quiz is 2 credits; flashcards, revision notes or a cheat sheet are 1 credit each. Retaking a quiz, studying flashcards, and turning a quiz into flashcards are free. Credits never expire.
Can I get a refund?
Yes: unused credits can be refunded within 14 days of buying them. If something fails to generate, your credits come back automatically. See the refund policy.
Can I share a quiz?
Yes. Every quiz has a link you can send to your course mates, and they can take it for free.
Is this cheating?
No. It's a revision tool, like making your own flashcards, just faster. Don't use it during a live assessment unless your university allows it.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Everything works in your phone's browser, and you can add it to your home screen like an app.
Can I use my flashcards in Anki?
Yes. You can export any deck as a file that Anki can import. Anki is a separate app and isn't connected to us.
