Flashcards
Scout builds study decks from your real Canvas coursework, in seconds
Instead of making flashcards manually, ClassOS generates decks from your actual course content. Paste your notes, or let Scout use your Canvas assignments and announcements.
built from the course material you already have
Why this matters
The night before
It is the night before the exam and the study guide is a stack of notes you have already read once, which is why reading them again does nothing. Scout turns the course material you already have into a deck you can flip, match, or test yourself against, so the last night is review instead of rereading.

How it works
- 1
Pick a course and a topic
Select which class you're studying for and optionally specify a topic ("Chapter 5", "Organic chemistry reactions"). Scout uses your Canvas data as context.
- 2
Scout generates your deck
In seconds you get a full deck with questions and answers. Regenerate or edit any card you want to adjust.
- 3
Study across three modes
Flip mode for reviewing, Match mode for speed, Test mode to see how well you know the material. Your progress is tracked so you can focus on weak spots.
Common questions
How accurate are the AI-generated flashcards?
Very accurate for factual content: Scout is grounded in your actual Canvas course data, not generic internet knowledge. For complex concepts, you can always edit cards.
Can I create cards from my own notes?
Yes. Paste any text (lecture notes, a textbook excerpt, a study guide) and Scout turns it into flashcards.
Are flashcards included in the free plan?
Flashcards come out of the shared AI-generation pool, so every tier gets them: 20 generations a month on free, 200 on Pro ($4.99/mo), 500 on the Scout tier ($14.99/mo). Scout chat messages are counted separately.
