🎌 SamuraizeTM
The YouTube summarizer made for students
Click to switch summarizer Summarizer
Paste a YouTube link and Samuraize carves it into a short, bite-sized document of its key points — no need to watch the whole thing.
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 a free summary every day.
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 and you can star the important ones. On Premium and Maximum you can also search across all of them and file them into folders by course - so when exams come, your notes are already organized. (Free keeps your 20 most recent open; the rest stay saved for when you upgrade.)
Student-friendly pricing
Start free with a free summary every day. Premium is $10.99 a month - or $9.99 a month billed yearly - for 4 hours of video or 400 pages every day and detail up to 20%. Summaries in any of 14 languages, questions, flashcards and quizzes are included on every plan, and nothing is charged per summary. Verify a school address and you get a bigger daily allowance on any plan.
Frequently asked
- Can I summarize videos in other languages?
- Yes, on every plan, Free included. Summaries come out in the video's language by default, or in any of 14 languages you pick - useful for lectures in a language you're still learning. Writing it in another language uses a third more of the day's allowance; re-translating a summary you've already saved is a Premium and Maximum feature.
- Do I need to install anything?
- No. It runs in the browser on any device. There's also an optional Chrome extension that adds a right-click 'Summarize with Samuraize'.
- Can I export the notes?
- Every plan has one-click copy for pasting into Notion, Google Docs or OneNote. On Premium and Maximum every summary also exports as TXT, Markdown or PDF.
- Is there a student discount?
- Yes - verify a school email address in the Study Dojo and your account gets a bigger daily allowance, on any plan including Free. Yearly billing also takes 9% off Premium and 7% off Maximum.
