Video Notes

Point a specialist at a video URL, or a live browser tab, and it turns what plays into structured notes, chapters, and flashcards saved straight to your workspace.

What your specialists can do

Share a video link and a specialist produces a TL;DR, chapter breakdown, and pull quotes you can reuse in docs or chat—or ask for spaced-repetition flashcards from recorded lectures if you're studying the material for recall. For content that isn't at a stable URL, like a live demo playing in a browser tab, a specialist with cloud browser access can watch as it plays and take notes in real time. The output is saved as a file in your workspace, so it's there the next time you need to reference it, not just scrollback in a chat thread. For the full operator walkthrough, see our guide on turning any video into structured notes and flashcards.

How to connect it

  1. Enable Video Notes on the thread or specialist you're working with.
  2. Share a video URL, or enable cloud browser access if the specialist needs to watch a live tab instead.
  3. Say what output you want—a TL;DR, chapters, quotes, or flashcards.

Examples

  • “Take notes on this video URL—give me a TL;DR, key chapters, and quotes, saved to my workspace.”
  • “Make 20 flashcards from this lecture video for spaced repetition.”
  • “Summarize this two-hour recording into a 10-bullet brief for my team”—see our walkthrough for meeting notes from a recording.
  • “Watch this competitor's product demo and tell me the three features they emphasize most.”

Honest limits

  • Copyrighted or paywalled video may be inaccessible to a specialist, the same as it would be to you without a subscription.
  • Very long recordings may be processed and summarized in chunks rather than all at once.
  • Note quality depends on the video's audio and captions—a mumbled recording produces thinner notes than a clearly narrated one.
  • Timestamps and chapter markers are approximate guides, not frame-accurate cues—confirm the exact moment yourself before citing it.
Tip: for a live tab you want notes on as it plays, say so up front—it changes whether the specialist needs cloud browser access or just a URL.

Plan availability

Video Notes is available from the Growth plan. See pricing for full plan details.

Common questions

Do I need to give browser access for every video?
No—a stable video URL is enough for most content. Cloud browser access is only needed for something playing live in a tab, like an ephemeral demo.

Where do the flashcards and notes end up?
Saved to your workspace, so you can find them again alongside your other files.
