Screenshot to Anki — turn a captured slide into flashcards

Upload a screenshot of a slide, chart, or page. AI reads the image and writes a question and answer you can edit.

How it works

1. Drop your file

Notion export, PDF, Word, Markdown, or a Quizlet export.

2. 2anki builds your deck

Usually a few seconds. Bigger files take a minute.

3. Open it in Anki

Double-click the .apkg file. Your cards are ready to study.

Supported formats

What you actually get in Anki

Cloze deletions stay clickable

{{c1::...}} becomes a real Anki cloze card, not plain text.

Images render in the card

Embedded images come across and display on the front or back.

Tags carry over

Strikethrough in Notion or a tag column in CSV attaches to every card in the deck.

Correct note types

Basic, Cloze, and front/back map to the right Anki note type so import is clean.

No junk in your cards

No empty backs, no stray #, *, or $ characters left over from your notes.

Common questions

Screenshot vs photo — which page do I want?

A screenshot is a digital capture — a slide, a webpage, a PDF on your screen. A photo is taken with your camera — a textbook page, a whiteboard, handwritten notes. Both work here; the camera path lives on the photo to Anki page.

Do I have to retype anything?

No. The AI reads the text in the image and writes the card. You edit only what you want to change.

Can I hide part of a diagram instead of a plain question and answer?

For labelled diagrams where you want to blank out one region at a time, use image occlusion in Anki.

What if the card comes out wrong?

Edit it before downloading. The question and answer are text fields — rewrite them, and re-upload a cleaner crop if the AI misread the image.

Is it free?

You can convert on the free plan up to the monthly card limit. Heavier use and larger uploads are covered by a subscription.
