VideoAnki - Convert Videos into Anki Flashcards

Turn any video into an Anki deck

Listening practice for language learners, built from real video. One flashcard per subtitle line: audio on the front, text on the back.

3 free conversions every month

Example flashcard: video audio on the front, subtitle and translation on the back
0

Feed it a video file. It transcribes the audio, splits it on subtitle boundaries, and hands you back an .apkg: one card per line, audio clipped to the line, translation on the back.

Real speech, not studio audio

Native speakers at native speed, with all the elisions, filler words and swallowed syllables. Not phrases articulated for learners.

The text is hidden first

The front of the card is audio only. You either parsed it or you didn't, and the card tells you which. That's the whole point.

It lives inside FSRS

These are ordinary Anki notes. Your scheduler treats a listening rep like any other rep, so there's no separate app and no separate streak to maintain.

What it costs

3 free full-video conversions per month, up to 60 minutes each. The allowance resets on your signup day.

Past that, you pay per video by length:

Under 15 min€0.50
Under 30 min€1.00
Under 60 min€2.00

Transcription and translation are API calls, and they meter per minute of audio, so the pricing does too. No subscription.

Who's behind this

I'm a French developer in Paris. I was learning Arabic, a friend was learning Portuguese, and we both hit the same wall: reading was fine, listening was hopeless. Every app we tried fed us audio recorded for learners, which is not the thing we were failing at.

So I built the converter I wanted: real video, real speech, straight into the scheduler I already reviewed with every day. It's the most efficient way I've found to train listening. In my humble opinion.
