The fastest way to build Anki flashcards from your notes
Making Anki flashcards is slow. You read a textbook, take notes in Notion or a PDF, then retype everything into Anki — for hours. 2anki.net automates that. Upload a PDF, drop in a Notion export, paste from Quizlet, and download a nativeapkg deck ready to import. No browser plugin, no clunky CSV. Just real Anki decks. 19,000+ students, language learners, and med residents use it. Open source on GitHub. Built solo from Oslo while working a day job.
Hey Product Hunt 👋I'm Alexander. 2anki.net started as a weekend hack in April 2020.
I was on r/Anki and saw a post from someone called who'd written a bunch of nested toggle questions in Notion and wanted to turn them into Anki cards without retyping everything by hand. Theyeasked if there was any way to do it. There wasn't.
So I built one that weekend. Posted it back to r/Anki. People started using it. Then they asked for PDF support. Then Quizlet. Then Markdown. Then Word.
Five years later, 2anki.net handles all those formats and ~19,000 people use it — med students, language learners, residents prepping for boards, anyone who lives inside Anki.
The whole time it stayed labeled "beta," because I kept telling myself "next month I'll cut a 2.0." Five years of next month.
What finally got me out of beta: Claude Code. I set up a small product trio in my .claude/ folder — a PM, a designer, and an engineer subagent — and the work that always lost to my day job (auth cleanup, edge cases, the polish nobody notices but everybody feels) actually shipped.
So this is 2anki.net v1. Five years in beta. Out today.
What's different:
- Native .apkg output — not CSV, not a browser extension
- Handles Notion, PDF, Quizlet, Word, Markdown
- Auto sync with Notion
Two things I'd love feedback on:
1. If you use Anki — what's still painful about making decks?
2. Which input format should I support next?
Huge thanks to jacksong97 for the question that started all of
this. I'll be in the comments all day 🙏
