Turn any YouTube video into flashcards

Paste a YouTube link and Forgetless extracts the transcript, identifies key concepts, and generates a study-ready flashcard deck — all in seconds. Powered by FSRS v6, the same spaced repetition algorithm used by Anki, so you remember what you watch.

How it works

1
Paste a YouTube link

Copy any YouTube URL — a lecture, tutorial, podcast, or language lesson. Forgetless accepts any video with available captions.

2
AI extracts the transcript

The transcript is pulled automatically. AI identifies the key concepts, terms, and facts worth remembering.

3
Get a study-ready deck

Review the generated flashcards, edit anything you like, then save. FSRS v6 schedules your reviews at the optimal intervals for long-term retention.

Lecture recordings

Med students: turn your lecture recordings into review decks in under a minute. Paste the YouTube link from your professor's upload and get flashcards covering every key concept discussed. No more pausing and note-taking — just study the cards.

Language immersion

Watching content in your target language? Paste the video link and get vocabulary and grammar flashcards extracted from real, natural speech. Build your word bank from content you actually enjoy.

Tutorial videos

Programming tutorials, cooking techniques, music theory — any video where you want to retain what you learned. Forgetless captures the essential points and turns passive watching into active recall.

No other flashcard app does this

Not Anki, not Quizlet, not RemNote. Forgetless is the only flashcard tool that turns a YouTube link into a spaced repetition deck with one click. Combine it with FSRS v6 scheduling and you get a study system that's both faster to set up and more effective at long-term retention.
