What Kind of Cards Do You Need?

Different content calls for different card formats. Here's how to pick the right one.

FASTEST TO REVIEW

Image Occlusion

Perfect for visual content

Image Occlusion (IO) is the fastest, most efficient card type for anything visual. If your slide has a diagram, a chart, an anatomical figure, a pharmacology table, or a lab values reference — IO is the right choice. We draw boxes over each key label. You see the image, one label disappears — you recall it. Simple. Effective. Fast to review.

A La Carte: $0.40/slide · Block packages start at $149 · Subscriptions start at $129/mo

Best for:

  • Anatomy (structures, bones, nerves, vessels)
  • Histology slides
  • Pharmacology mechanism charts
  • Pathology tables
  • Lab value grids
  • Any slide that's mostly a picture or chart
DEEPEST RECALL

Cloze Deletion

Best for facts, definitions, and mechanisms

Cloze cards are fill-in-the-blank. They work best when you need to recall specific facts, definitions, drug names, mechanisms, or sequence steps. Our team reads each slide, identifies the high-yield testable facts, and writes targeted cloze sentences. These cards require more expertise to create — which is why they cost more.

A La Carte: $1.00/slide · Block packages start at $149 · Subscriptions start at $129/mo

Best for:

  • Mechanism of action statements
  • Drug class definitions
  • Pathophysiology step sequences
  • Biochemical pathway facts
  • Microbiology organism characteristics
  • Dense concept slides with lots of written content
CLINICAL-STYLE

Q&A Cards

Classic flashcard format

Q&A is the traditional flashcard: question on front, answer on back. This format is best for clinical-style recall — the kind of content that shows up on shelf exams and boards as a question stem followed by a specific fact. Our team writes precise questions and accurate answers, not vague or overly broad.

A La Carte: $0.60/slide · A La Carte only (no block packages for Q&A)

Best for:

  • Clinical correlations
  • High-yield facts in question form
  • Two-sided recall content
  • Content your professor has explicitly said 'know this for the exam'

Which Should I Choose?

Your slide has a diagram or image→ Image Occlusion
Your slide is mostly text with facts and definitions→ Cloze Deletion
Your professor said 'know this mechanism/fact for the exam'→ Q&A or Cloze
You're not sure→ Image Occlusion (fastest, easiest to review, best bang for your time)
