Knowt

Knowt is an AI-powered study material creation platform that automatically generates flashcards and quizzes from written notes, PDF files, YouTube videos or even video recordings of lectures. Rather than manually typing each flashcard, users upload sources (notes, slides, transcripts) and the AI extracts key concepts and reformulates them as questions and answers. The tool then offers study modes: Learn Mode (passive), Test Mode (quiz), Matching (associative games). The free plan includes unlimited flashcard generation and access to basic study modes. Paid plans exist but pricing is not publicly displayed on the site: you must create an account to discover it.

Knowt offers no French-language interface: the product remains English-only. No documented public API. The tool positions itself directly as a Quizlet alternative, promising lower costs ('at a fraction of the cost'). The free freemium model includes core features, making it accessible for zero-budget students. The main issue is pricing opacity: to know what cost a paid adoption requires, you must sign up and explore plans. The AI, while fast, may generate imperfect flashcards requiring manual refinement.
