Flashcards work because each card asks one thing. This tool reads the captions of a video and writes cards the same way: one question, one short answer, taken from what the speaker actually said.

What you get

One fact per card

Short questions with short answers, easy to review.

From the video only

Cards use what the speaker said, with numbers kept exactly.

Export when ready

In your account the cards can go to a document or a quiz.

Questions

Does it download the video?

No. It reads the public captions of the video, the same text YouTube shows when you turn subtitles on. Nothing is downloaded, and your link is not kept.

What if the video has no captions?

Then there is nothing to read. Paste the transcript into the box instead, or open the video's three-dot menu on YouTube and choose Show transcript.

Which languages work?

Any language the video has captions in. The result is written in the language of the captions unless you ask for another in your account.

Can I import the cards into Anki?

In your account you can export the cards as a table that Anki and similar apps import.
