Flashcards for writers
Turn your notes into flashcards
Revise without making the cards.
Turn a notebook you have kept for years into a deck without writing the cards. The questions come out of what you captured yourself, which is the version that matters for the next draft.
A deck generated from a single note in one step
Or write and edit the cards yourself, on any plan
Review inside the app on desktop or phone
Cards stay attached to the note they came from
Decks sync across your devices on a paid plan
The slow part is done for you
Writing the cards is what stops most people revising. Not anymore.
Ten minutes is enough
Short review sessions on the phone beat one long night before the exam.
Straight from your notes
No stranger on the internet deciding what matters in your course.
Review wherever you are
The deck is on your phone, so the bus ride home counts as a session.
Decks follow you across devices
Start on the laptop and finish on the phone on any paid plan.
Every card knows its note
A card you keep missing takes you back to the paragraph behind it.
In short
Three things a notebook should have always done
Not features so much as relief. What changes when nothing you wrote can go missing.
1.
The line you need is in the other notebook, or a text to yourself.
Nothing gets lost between notebooks
Every fragment lands in one library, on the laptop and the phone, and search finds it by what it was about.
2.
The scene arrives on the walk and is gone by the time you reach the desk.
Talk the scene out when typing is too slow
Record on a walk and read the transcript back as raw material for the next session.
3.
You cannot tell whether the thought is new or something you wrote in 2019.
Ask your own archive what you already said
Check whether a thought is new or something you wrote three years ago, without opening twenty files.
A writing day
What that looks like for writers
Three moments where the notebook does its quiet work.
01
First thing in the morning
Open the draft where you left it, with the research notes linked next to it.
02
Walking around
Record thirty seconds of dialogue on the phone before it evaporates.
03
Structural edit
Ask for a summary of what each chapter note actually covers and move things around.
At a glance
From Notes to Flashcards
What goes in
One note, such as your lecture notes, a chapter summary or a page you clipped from the web. The cards are written from what it says.
What comes out
A deck of ten cards, a question on the front and the answer on the back, kept in the note it came from. Flip through them on your laptop or your phone.
Which plan
Pro, with Grape AI built in, or Lifetime with your own AI key. On Free and Sync you write the cards yourself, and every plan can edit a deck by hand.
The rest of the app
What Else Grape Does
Every part of the app is built around the same idea: keep what you write, and hand it back when you need it.
Questions
Questions Before You Install It
The rest of them live in the help center.
- Will the AI rewrite my work?
- Only if you ask it to. Grape does not touch your text on its own. Chat, summaries and search read your notes, and every edit an AI makes is a normal note change you can roll back through version history.
- Can I work entirely offline?
- Yes. Writing, organising, recording and exporting all work with no connection. Only the AI features need the internet, or a local model if you prefer.
- What is Grape, in one paragraph?
- Grape is a note app for Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android with AI built into the middle of it rather than bolted on the side. You write, record and collect things the normal way, and then you can search by meaning, ask questions about your own notes, and turn any note into a summary, a set of flashcards, a quiz or a mind map.
- What makes it different from other note apps?
- Most note apps treat AI as an extra panel. In Grape the agent works on your workspace: it can read, create, edit, move, tag and delete notes, and every answer points back to the note it came from. Semantic search, voice transcription, flashcards, quizzes, mind maps and the drawing canvas all live inside the editor rather than in separate tools.
- Where do my notes actually live?
- On your device, in a local database, and you can choose where that file sits. Nothing needs to leave your machine for the app to work. If you turn on sync with a Sync or Pro plan, your notes are also stored in the cloud so your devices can stay in step. On Lifetime they sync through your own Dropbox or Google Drive instead, and Grape never sees them.
- Do I need an account to use it?
- No. Download the app and start writing. You only need an account for the paid plans, which is where cross device sync and built in AI come in.
Find it when you need it.
Fragments, research, scenes and three unfinished drafts in one place, with search that works on meaning so nothing you wrote at midnight disappears forever.
