About

Hi! I’m Gürkan A researcher, engineer, and founder passionate about turning AI into accessible, useful tools for lifelong learning. By day, I’m pursuing my PhD in AI-driven digital twins for agriculture at Wageningen University. By night, I build products like FlashCardify, an AI-powered flashcard app that helps people learn smarter... from PDFs, YouTube, presentations, and more. I believe learning should be effortless, fun, and personalized and I’m working to make that a reality through tech. Let’s connect if you’re into AI, edtech, product design, or just love solving hard problems with creativity.

FlashCardify - From content to curriculum - flashcards reimagined

FlashCardify turns any content (YouTube, PDFs, PowerPoint, text) into AI-generated flashcards AND structured learning curricula. Unlike traditional flashcard apps, we create visual topic maps showing prerequisites and dependencies between concepts. Master subjects systematically with spaced repetition, multilingual support, and community decks. Learning designed for understanding, not just memorization.
