Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ai flashcard maker.
How many flashcards can I generate from one source?
There is no fixed card count because output depends on the amount and density of the source. A short lecture may produce a compact deck, while a dense chapter can produce a larger deck that you can edit before review.
What types of flashcard formats does the AI create?
Thetawave generates term/definition, question/answer, fill-in-the-blank, and concept explanation cards. The AI automatically selects the best format for each concept — definitions get term cards, processes get sequencing cards.
Are AI-generated flashcards as effective as handmade ones?
Research shows that the review process drives retention, not card creation (Karpicke, 2011). AI-generated flashcards let you spend more time on clinical review or problem-solving and less on the manual creation step.
Can I generate flashcards directly from a YouTube video?
Yes — paste a YouTube URL and Thetawave extracts the content via YouTube to Notes, identifies key concepts, and generates flashcards in one step. No need to take notes first.
