2anki.net

2anki.net helps you turn your Notion pages, HTML, Markdown, and other study material into Anki flashcards. Drop something in, get a clean .apkg deck back — no fuss.

Why 2anki?

We're not replacing Anki or Notion — we're building a bridge between them. Drop in what you're studying, get a deck back.

  • Free to use, no technical skills required
  • Multi-format: Notion pages (via API or HTML export), PDF, Word (docx), PowerPoint, Markdown, HTML, CSV, Excel (xlsx), EPUB, Kindle clippings, Quizlet exports, and zip bundles
  • Image occlusion and photo-to-deck for diagrams and handwritten notes
  • Toggle lists become cards, cloze deletions work out of the box
  • Embeds, audio, images, code blocks, and LaTeX carried over
  • Self-hostable if you hit the free-tier quota
  • No VC funding — sustained by paying subscribers and lifetime users

Apps

2anki runs in any browser, and there's a native app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac — free on the App Store. Files are parsed on-device; sign in for AI deck generation and Notion sync. See 2anki.net/app.

Getting started

git clone https://github.com/Laer-Smart/2anki.net.git
cd 2anki.net
pnpm install
touch .env
pnpm dev

The server starts on http://localhost:2020 and the frontend on http://localhost:3000. For server-only work: pnpm dev:server.

How we develop

Every change that touches user-facing behavior goes through a product trio — three AI agents (PM, Designer, Engineer) working in parallel at the center of the loop. Alexander (lead developer) is the human in the loop: he sets direction, approves specs, and merges PRs. The goal is to catch bad assumptions before engineering time is committed.

The trio is powered by Claude subagents in .claude/agents/. Use /trio <task> to invoke all three in parallel on any prompt.

Contributing
