How CB Create
Works
Understand how CB Create generates flashcards, what makes them special, and how your card limits work.
What is a Point Pair?
CB Create generates flashcards in Point Pairs. Each Point Pair contains two cards that test the same concept in different ways:
1. TD Card (Term/Definition)
Tests recall of concepts
2. QA Card (Question/Answer)
Tests application with MCQ distractors
Why Point Pairs? Testing the same concept in two formats (recall + application) creates stronger memory pathways and prevents shallow learning.
1 Point Pair = 2 cards. When we talk about card limits, we count individual cards, not Point Pairs. So 50 cards = 25 Point Pairs.
The CB Create Process
CB Create transforms your notes into high-quality flashcards through a two-phase intelligent process:
Phase 1: Planning
The AI first reads and understands your notes, identifying key concepts and their relationships. This happens once per generation, regardless of how many cards you create.
Phase 2: Generation
The AI then generates each card with:
Why CB Create is Different
❌ Traditional AI Flashcard Tools
- • Generic one-shot generation
- • No concept planning
- • Weak or missing MCQ distractors
- • Inconsistent quality
- • No character limits (creates novels)
✅ CB Create
- • Intelligent planning phase
- • Concept extraction before generation
- • Rigorous MCQ distractors (10+ quality rules)
- • Consistent formatting
- • Exam-ready brevity (enforced limits)
The result? Flashcards that feel hand-crafted, not AI-generated. CB Create doesn't just copy your notes, it thinks about what you need to learn and creates cards that test understanding, not memorisation.

How Limits Work
You have two separate pools of cards that work together:
Monthly Cards (Used First)
Your monthly card pool resets on the 1st of each month. CB Create uses these first.
Daily Cards (Fallback)
If your monthly cards run out, CB Create automatically uses your daily pool. This resets daily.
Example: Plus User in December
Why two pools? Monthly cards give you a kickstart each month for batch-creating study sets. Daily cards ensure you never hit a hard wall, you can always generate more cards tomorrow.
