The most efficient way to improve your listening
(in our humble opinion)
(in our humble opinion)
VideoAnki allows you to convert your favorite videos into Anki decks with flashcards like this one
When you convert a video, it generates subtitles for it and automatically creates a flashcard like this one for each subtitle.
For us, those decks are the fastest way to improve our listening.
Why??
Because, unlike with traditional apps, with our decks, you’re exposed to how people actually speak in real-life situations, with all the imperfections, nuances, and natural rhythms of native speech, not carefully articulated phrases designed for learners.
Plus, with our flashcards system, where subtitles are hidden at first, you’re truly training your listening skills. You’ll learn to rely on your ears, not just your eyes, for real progress.
How to convert a video for yourself?
1. Pick a video file you'd like to convert (any video file type works)
2. Fill our form below (you'll need to upload the video file you picked)
Ready?
If you want to convert a video from youtube?
You can use Notube, a website that will allow you to download the youtube video as a video file:
1. Go to this page and copy-paste the link of the youtube video you'd like to download
2. Select "MP4" in the blue dropdown, click on "Ok" and you'll be able to download the video.
3. Then you'll just need to fill out our form with the video file as mentioned above.
Is it free ?
You may convert one video for free, you will need to create an account, but no credit card is required.
If you request to convert more videos, we will ask you for a contribution to cover the costs of running the service.

A little bit about us
We are two french 26 years old guys based in Paris. We both lived abroad, me in Brazil and my friend, Noé, in Morocco.
When we were in these countries, we learned Portuguese and Arabic.
We really loved the process of learning a new language but we both struggled with listening comprehension, that's how we came up with this Video to Anki converter idea that, we hope, you will appreciate.
Once downloaded, you should find your Anki deck file in your Downloads folder or in another folder you may have chosen. To use the deck, double-click on the downloaded file. It should then appear in Anki, in your deck list.
