Klarrity vs AnkiDecks: Clip or Whole Video (2026)
AnkiDecks takes a file or a link and gives you a deck on all of it. Klarrity works the other way round: you mark the 30 seconds or the paragraph that caught you out, and it writes cards on that.
AnkiDecks is stronger on card types and on bulk: image occlusion, multiple choice, a whole video in one pass. Klarrity is stronger on aim: the clip you rewound, the paragraph you reread, and a quiz first so the deck stays small. Both export .apkg without paying. Pick by whether your problem is coverage or precision.

What each one is good at.
Klarrity
In its favour
- 5 generations a day, free, with no card asked for — a daily budget rather than a monthly one
- Clip-based YouTube capture instead of whole-video processing
- Klarrify quizzes first and writes cards only on the gaps
- Anki .apkg export on the free tier, plus AnkiConnect straight into an open deck
- Every YouTube card links back to the moment it came from
Against it
- No image occlusion, which AnkiDecks has and anatomy learners rely on
- No multiple-choice card type
- Chrome only, with no mobile app
- Quizlet, Notion and Obsidian export are Pro, at $7 a month or $49 a year
AnkiDecks
In its favour
- Every plan, including Basic, exports .apkg files
- Basic is free with 4 deck generations a month
- Image occlusion and multiple choice as first-class card types
- Built for whole documents and long videos in one pass
Against it
- No browser capture — material arrives as a file or a pasted link
- Whole-source processing, so the cards cover everything rather than the part you missed
- The free budget is monthly, so a heavy week runs out
- Its pricing page names no Notion or Obsidian export
Questions
- What does AnkiDecks cost?
- anki-decks.com printed Basic as free with 4 deck generations a month, Pro at $7.99 a month or $60 a year, and Ultimate at $20 a month or $144 a year, when it was read on 2026-09-02.
- Can I use both?
- They cover different halves. AnkiDecks for a whole lecture or textbook chapter in one go, Klarrity for the moments inside it you want to drill.
- Why doesn't Klarrity have image occlusion?
- It is not built yet. If image occlusion is central to how you study anatomy or pathology, AnkiDecks is the honest recommendation today.
- Which free tier is larger?
- They are shaped differently. AnkiDecks gives 4 deck generations a month; Klarrity gives 5 generations a day with no card. Klarrity's suits steady daily reading, AnkiDecks' suits occasional bulk work.
- Do both export to Anki for free?
- Yes. AnkiDecks states that all plans including Free export .apkg files, and Klarrity's .apkg export is on its free tier.
