Discover the story behind CardSnap and our mission to make learning accessible.
One day, my daughter asked me to help her study for a science exam. I thought, “Wouldn't it be easier if she had flashcards?”
So I built this tiny tool to convert her notes into printable cards — quickly and simply.
It worked. And now, I'm sharing it in case it helps someone else study better, too.
