# AI flashcards that write themselves

Type one word, a concept, or a question. Toly works out what you typed and writes the whole card in a second, ready to review.

## From one word to a finished card

1. **Type anything**: A word, a phrase, a concept, or a question: in your language or the one you’re learning.
2. **Toly reads it**: It tells a word from a concept or a question, and picks the right kind of card.
3. **The back is written**: Meaning, example, and pronunciation, or a clear explanation, or a short answer.
4. **It comes back on time**: Spaced repetition schedules the card right before you’d forget it.

## What’s on the back of a word card

Every language card is built around the word you’re learning: its meaning, how to say it, the part of speech, a natural example with a translation, and a few synonyms and antonyms.

- Pronunciation you can hear with one tap.
- Examples that sound like real speech.
- Synonyms and antonyms to widen your vocabulary.

**resilient**, /rɪˈzɪl.i.ənt/ · adjective  (English vocabulary)

- Meaning: Able to recover quickly after something difficult.
- Example: “Kids are more resilient than we think.”
- Synonyms: tough · adaptable
- Antonyms: fragile · weak

## Concepts and questions, too

Not learning a language? Type a concept like “cognitive dissonance” and Toly explains it in plain words, with an example. Type a question and you get a short, clear answer.

**Cognitive dissonance**  (Psychology 101)

- In short: The discomfort of holding two beliefs (or a belief and an action) that don’t fit together.
- Example: Someone who values health keeps smoking, then tells themselves “it’s only a few a day.”
- Why it matters: People often change a belief, not the behaviour, to make the discomfort go away.

## Type in either language

Learning Spanish? Type “tired” or “cansado”, both work. Toly detects which language you typed and always builds the card around the word you’re learning.

13: English, Español (Latinoamérica), Español (España), Português (Brasil), Français, Deutsch, Türkçe, 日本語, 한국어, 繁體中文, Tiếng Việt, العربية, فارسی

> **A note on accuracy.** AI is fast but not perfect. For anything that matters (an exam, a medical term), glance at the card and edit it if needed. You can change any card with one tap.

## Questions

### Which AI does Toly use?

Toly uses Google Gemini to write cards. Your words are sent only to write the card and are not used for advertising.

### How many AI cards can I make?

3 a day on the free plan. Toly PRO gives you unlimited AI autofill.

### Can I edit what the AI wrote?

Yes. Open any card and change the front or the back. You can also turn AI off and write the back yourself.

### Does AI card writing work offline?

No. Writing a card with AI needs a connection. If you’re offline, Toly tells you right away.
