Turn any YouTube video into flashcards.
Paste a lecture link, pick the time range you need, and MindLoad turns it into flashcards and a quiz. No more pausing every thirty seconds to write things down by hand. No subscription, just your material, ready to practice.
Works best on videos with captions or a spoken transcript, like lectures and tutorials.
From a YouTube link to a study set in three steps.
Paste the link
Drop in a YouTube URL. Sitting in class instead? Record the lecture live in the app and MindLoad handles it the same way.
Pick your time range
Only need part of a long lecture? Select the section you want instead of generating from the whole video.
Get flashcards and quizzes
MindLoad builds your set automatically. Edit any card, add hints, reorder the deck, and practice offline whenever you're ready.
Built for lecture videos, not just text.
YouTube link or live recording
Bring in a video after class, or record the lecture live in the app while you're sitting in it.
Works offline
Once a set is created, practice anywhere your signal drops.
No subscription
Pay only for the sets you generate. Tokens never expire and there is nothing to cancel.

YouTube import questions, answered.
How do I turn a YouTube video into flashcards?
Open MindLoad, paste the YouTube link, and pick a time range if you only need part of the video. MindLoad reads the transcript and builds flashcards and quiz questions from it automatically. You can then edit any card, add hints, and reorder the deck.
Does it work on any YouTube video?
It works best on videos with captions or a spoken transcript, like lectures, tutorials, and educational channels. Very short or music-only videos will not produce a useful transcript to build flashcards from.
Can I pick just part of a long lecture video?
Yes. Use the time range picker to select the specific section of the video you want, so you are not generating flashcards from an hour of content you do not need.
What if I am watching a live lecture instead of a YouTube video?
MindLoad also supports live lecture recording. Record directly in the app during class and it turns the recording into flashcards and a quiz afterward, the same way it handles a YouTube link.
Is turning YouTube videos into flashcards free?
There is no subscription. You get free tokens when you sign up, and tokens are only used when you generate new sets. Reviewing what you create, Ultra Mode focus timers, summaries, and offline practice never cost a token. See our AI Disclosure for accuracy notes.
