The AI Anki card maker that shows its work.
Choose a chapter, slide deck, web page or video. Use Clozely to generate cloze cards with each one painted onto the source as a highlight. One click of the card takes you to your source — scrolled directly to the passage the card came from. Review each card, then send them to Anki with one click.

Three ways to use Clozely AI.
A whole document or page range
Hand it the whole document or a subset of pages and Clozely AI will draft the cards for you.
A box you draw
Drag a box around a table or figure and Clozely AI drafts cards from the info inside.
A selection you make
Select a paragraph and draft from just that. Good for the one dense passage in an otherwise skimmable page.
Clozely AI drafts cards so you can review them before sending them to your deck
Clozely AI cards arrive as highlights on the document and drafts in the card panel. Click one and Clozely scrolls to its source sentence so you can verify it. Approve the ones you like and send them to your deck.
A tighter loop than copy and paste.
Many people's workflow is pasting a passage into a LLM chatbot, asking for flashcards, and copying them into Anki manually. This process is cumbersome, inefficient, and often generates inaccurate cards that are now in your deck.
Nothing to copy or paste
The document is already open in Clozely, and the drafts land in the card panel beside it. You are never juggling two apps.
Every card is linked to its source
Click a draft and Clozely scrolls to the highlighted sentence it came from, so you can confirm it against the source document in one click instead of re-reading the whole document to find where it came from.
Real cloze formatting
Drafts arrive as genuine Anki cloze notes with the deletions, decks, and tags already set by you. Nothing to reformat before you can start studying.
Reads figures, not just text
Tables, pathway diagrams, and figures go through area select, so the parts of a page you cannot copy and paste anywhere still become cards.
Questions, answered
Can AI really make Anki cards from a PDF?
Yes. Open the PDF in Clozely, hit Generate, and choose the whole document, a page range, or an area. See PDF to Anki for the full workflow, including the manual one.
Do I have to use AI to use Clozely?
No. The manual tools are free: highlighting, cloze editing, image occlusion, and sending cards to Anki. AI drafting and video to study doc synthesis is optional and paid.
Does it work on lectures?
Yes. Recordings become timestamp-cited study docs you can draft cards from. That's the video to Anki workflow.
What does the AI cost?
The app is free. Clozely AI plans start at $9.99/mo. Every new account also gets a sample of 50 AI-drafted cards, so you can see what the AI does before you pay. Full detail on pricing.
Will bad AI cards end up in my deck?
Not without your say-so. Every AI card is a draft until you approve it, and each one links back to its source sentence so you can check it in seconds.
