Everything else in DecksMD — reviewing, FSRS scheduling, statistics, sync, import — is free and unaffected by any of this. Pro covers the hosted AI only.
Who it's for
Pro is worth it when the material is long and the bottleneck is turning it into cards.
Students with dense source material
Medicine, law, engineering — hundreds of pages a term. Attach the PDF, pick the chapters you actually need, and get cards from the pages you chose.
Anyone whose notes are already in Obsidian
Point it at notes you have written and get atomic cards back, scheduled by FSRS. Your vault stays plain Markdown either way.
People studying from scans and slides
Scanned chapters, lecture slides and photographed pages are transcribed first, including maths, so they can be turned into cards like any other note.
People who would rather not run an API key
No provider account, no billing dashboard, no model to choose. Sign in once and it works.
