Whether it's a Crash Course episode, a Khan Academy walkthrough, a recorded lecture or a 3Blue1Brown explainer, Samuraize turns it into clean study notes in about ten seconds. Paste a link above to try it - three summaries are free without an account, and a free account gives you 20 Samurai Coins a month (1 coin per 10 minutes of video).

Notes, not a paragraph

Instead of one vague blurb, you get titled sections in the order the video covers them, each with a clickable timestamp. Turn the detail slider down for a quick gist that tells you whether a video's worth your time, or up for exam-ready notes.

Study tools built in

From any saved summary you can generate flashcards, take a quiz written from the video's own content, or ask questions and get answers that point to the exact moment in the video. It's the workflow of watching, note-taking and self-testing in one place.

A library that remembers everything

Every summary is saved to your account. Search across all of them, star the important ones, and file them into folders by course. When exams come, your notes are already organized.
