PDF to Anki converter
Turn a PDF of lecture slides, a textbook chapter or your own notes into an Anki .apkg deck — free, unlimited and without an account. The PDF is read entirely on your device: the text is extracted in your browser, your own Claude writes clean question and answer cards, and the .apkg file is built locally. Nothing is ever uploaded, so it works for exam material you cannot share.
Example text extracted from a PDF
Chapter 4 — Cell Biology
The cell membrane is a phospholipid bilayer that regulates transport. Passive transport requires no energy, while active transport uses ATP. The sodium-potassium pump moves 3 Na+ out and 2 K+ in per cycle, maintaining the resting membrane potential.Frequently asked questions
- Does my PDF get uploaded anywhere?
- No. The PDF is parsed on your device with an in-browser PDF reader and the .apkg file is assembled locally. Nothing is sent to a server, which makes it safe for confidential or copyrighted study material.
- Will the cards import into Anki?
- Yes. You download a standard .apkg package that opens in Anki Desktop and AnkiMobile. The cards are Basic front/back notes, so they import without a notetype clash and keep their Markdown formatting and math.
- Is there a limit on how many cards I can make?
- No monthly cap. Because the cards are generated with your own Claude rather than our servers, there is no per-generation cost and no paywall on volume.
