YouTube to Flashcards

You watch a great lecture, nod along, and forget most of it by next week. Paste the link into Interact instead and AI turns the video into flashcards, quizzes, and fill-in-the-blanks you can actually review.

The Create page in Interact accepting notes, links, videos, and uploads — Paste a YouTube link on the Create page and generate a lesson from it.

How it works

1. Paste a YouTube link

Any video with spoken content works: lectures, tutorials, conference talks, documentaries, explainers. Copy the link, paste it on the Create page.

2. AI builds the lesson

Interact pulls the video's content and picks out the ideas worth remembering. From link to lesson usually takes under a minute.

3. Review before you keep anything

You see every generated flashcard, quiz question, and fill-in-the-blank before it joins your collection. Edit what misses, delete what you don't want.

4. Reviews get scheduled for you

Everything you keep enters your Learn queue. Spaced repetition brings each card back right around the time you'd otherwise forget it.

More than flashcards

One video becomes a mix of exercise types: classic flashcards for concepts, multiple choice quizzes for tricky distinctions, fill-in-the-blanks and typed answers for exact terms. Variety keeps daily review from feeling like a chore.

And YouTube is just one source. The same generator works on web articles, PDFs, and your own notes.

A flashcard in the Interact lesson player — Generated cards play in the same lesson player as everything else you make.

Common questions

Does it work with any YouTube video?

It works from what's said in the video, so it needs spoken content. Lectures and tutorials shine. Music videos and mostly-visual content give it little to work with.

Is it free?

The free plan includes 10 AI generations a month, so you can try it on real videos without paying anything. Creating cards by hand is unlimited on every plan.

Can I edit what the AI generates?

Yes, everything. Generated interactives are regular interactives: rewrite them, delete them, or add your own next to them.

Where do I review the cards?

On the web, or in the native apps for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Your queue and progress stay in sync everywhere.
