Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of videos work best?
Educational lectures, tutorials, and explainer videos work best. The AI creates structured notes with headings, key terms, and organized sections.
Can I download the notes?
Yes. Download as Markdown (.md) for use in Obsidian, Notion, or any markdown editor. You can also copy the formatted text.
What if AI is unavailable?
When AI is unavailable, we show the raw transcript with auto-detected paragraph breaks based on pauses in speech.
Is this useful for UPSC/NEET/JEE prep?

How accurate are the notes?
The AI produces high-quality notes but may miss context-specific nuances. Always cross-reference with the original video for important topics.
