How your Study Set works
Mindko generates your set
Mindko reads everything and builds your notes, flashcards, quizzes, mind map and study podcast — automatically.
Study, test & ask
Review your notes, drill with active recall, quiz yourself and chat with your files until it sticks.
More than flashcards — a complete Study Set
See everything Mindko builds from the material you already study from.
Feed it anything you learn from
PDFs, slides, textbooks, a YouTube link, an audio file or your own handwritten notes — pile it all in. Mindko reads everything and builds one connected Study Set you can chat with and study from, with no copy-pasting.
Record the lecture. Walk out with notes.
Hit record when class starts and Mindko's lecture recorder transcribes every word in real time. By the time you pack up, that transcript is already clean notes, flashcards and a quiz — nothing to type up later.
Break your material into a clear learning path
Upload your material and Mindko's study guide splits it into small, focused lessons — ordered so each topic builds on the one before it. Every lesson comes with its own flashcards, a quiz, a mind map and a study podcast, so you work through it step by step and actually retain what you learn.
Learn until it's actually mastered
Mindko scores what you know and what you don't across your whole set, then generates fresh quizzes, flashcards and active recall on your weak spots — and even grades your practice essays — so every topic moves from Unfamiliar to Mastered, not just “reviewed once.”
Integrating the latest generation of AI
Mindko is powered by a rich library of over 260 million academic articles

Still Have Questions?
Knowt is a free Quizlet alternative that makes AI flashcards, notes and practice tests from your material and adds a "Kai" chat. Mindko does all of that from a single upload, then adds the two things Knowt leaves out — a concept mind map and a two-host study podcast — so your whole study set comes from one file.
Yes. Upload a PDF, your slides or your notes and Mindko auto-generates flashcards and clean AI notes just like Knowt, then drills the cards with active-recall grading and spaced repetition so they actually stick.
From the same upload Mindko builds a concept mind map that connects the ideas in your material and turns it into a two-host study podcast you can listen to on the go — neither of which Knowt offers. They arrive alongside your flashcards, notes and quizzes.
Yes. Create a free account and build your first Study Set without paying; upgrade to Mindko Pro for unlimited sets and unlimited use of every tool.
No. Instead of porting decks over one by one, point Mindko at the source material — a PDF, your slides or your notes — and it rebuilds the flashcards, notes and quizzes for you, plus the mind map and study podcast Knowt can't make.
