Inside a Malleus Card

Every feature,
by design, for learning.

Scroll to explore what makes Malleus cards different.

Randomised elements to enhance learning

Some cards use randomised elements, so you do not pattern match and instead tests understanding

Question-Answer card style

Cards use a clean cloze deletion question-answer format, forcing active recall on the single most important clinical fact.

Useful extra content

The extra field gives you the clinical reasoning behind the answer — not just what, but why — so knowledge sticks beyond the exam.

Supporting content one click away

Direct links and content to eTG Complete, AMH Online, and other AU/NZ resources are embedded in every card — go deeper whenever you need to.

Comprehensive tagging structure

Every card is tagged by rotation, yield, and subject. Study only what is relevant to where you are right now in your training.

Why Malleus

Built by students,
for students

Every aspect of Malleus is shaped by the people who use it — a living deck that grows with every contribution and stays aligned with Australian clinical practice.

Anki Addon

A dedicated Anki addon integrates with the Malleus Notion database. Search cards, find existing notes with matching tags, and create new cards with proper tagging — all without leaving Anki.

Install Addon (620451841) ↗

Collaborative & Maintained

Cards are created, reviewed and updated by a community of medical students and junior doctors. No stale content — the deck evolves with feedback.

AU/NZ Curriculum Aligned

Content references Australian guidelines — eTG Complete, AMH, and local clinical standards — rather than US-centric resources.

Completely Free & Open Source

Malleus is free to use and contribute to. Hosted on AnkiHub, anyone can suggest card edits and improvements. AnkiHub offers full scholarships so the plugin costs nothing.

Sort by Rotation & Subject

A detailed tagging structure lets you filter cards by rotation, subject, or topic — so you can study exactly what is relevant to where you are in your training.

Active Community

A Discord server, Facebook group, and AnkiHub community of like-minded students share tips, resources, deck updates, and even run a Malleus Cup competition.
