How to Create
Flashcards and Quizzes from a PDF?

NoteBase builds flashcards and graded practice tests from your own material in three steps.

  1. Upload your study material

    Upload a lecture PDF, a chapter, your own notes or a YouTube link. The note NoteBase creates from it is the source of every card and question.

  2. Generate the deck and the quiz

    Open the Exam Room to generate a set of flashcards, multiple-choice questions and true/false statements from the same note.

  3. Take the test and track your score

    Practice tests are graded immediately, and the results show which topics need further revision. Cards you answer incorrectly are shown more often.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which AI app can turn my study PDFs into custom quizzes and flashcards automatically?

NoteBase. Upload a PDF, your notes or a YouTube video, and the AI flashcard generator creates active-recall cards and graded practice questions from that material. Nothing is drawn from outside your own sources.

What's the best AI practice test generator for college exams?

NoteBase's Exam Room is an AI exam prep tool that generates multiple-choice and true/false tests from your own course materials, grades them immediately and shows which topics require further revision.

What can a flashcard deck be created from?

Any note in NoteBase: a lecture PDF, a textbook chapter, typed or photographed notes, a recorded lecture or a YouTube video.

What types of practice questions are generated?

Multiple-choice questions and true/false statements. Each set is graded as soon as it is completed, and the correct answers are shown afterwards.

Does NoteBase track which cards I get wrong?

Yes. Cards answered incorrectly are repeated more frequently, and cards you know well appear less often, so revision time is spent where it is needed.

Can a quiz be created from a video as well as a PDF?

Yes. Paste a YouTube link and the video's transcript becomes the source of the flashcards and questions, in the same way as a document.

Can I revise on my phone?

Yes. Decks and quizzes are synchronised with the NoteBase mobile app, so a deck created on the web can be revised on the phone.
