YouTube to flashcards

Turn a YouTube video into flashcards you'll actually review

Paste a lecture or tutorial link and Acemy pulls the transcript, finds the key facts and terms, and builds flashcards you can review with spaced repetition — no typing them out by hand.

Great for recorded lectures, language videos, exam-prep channels, and how-to tutorials.
