Show HN: Recall – an MCP server that turns your notes into flashcards

A solo developer built Recall, an MCP server that converts notes from PDFs, docs, or Notion pages into flashcards for review using the FSRS spaced repetition algorithm, and connects to Claude or ChatGPT for card generation. The paid product, built over two weeks with Next.js, Drizzle, Neon, and ts-fsrs, aims to eliminate the tedium of manual flashcard creation.

I have been bouncing off flashcards because making them by hand has been always a tedious task. Recall runs as an MCP server - you can connect it to Claude or Chatgpt, point your handwritten or typed notes PDFs, docs, or even a Notion Page , and it writes Q&A cards straight into a deck. You could even ask Claude or Chatgpt to research on a topic and do the same without having the need to make notes. Then you review them with the FSRS spaced repetition algorithm. Built it solo over the last 2 weeks.
