Four ways in, one library
Every way in makes a note first, so your cards, quizzes and questions always have the material behind them.
- NotesA PDF, slides, a photo, a YouTube lecture, a recording or pasted text. You get a summary and structured notes in about a minute.
- LectureRecord the class as it happens, upload the audio, or paste a YouTube link. Knomi listens and writes the notes.
- FlashcardsYour material in, a deck out, scheduled with spaced repetition so you review each card the day before it fades.
- QuizA quiz marked as you go, or a timed practice test graded at the end, every answer explained from your material.

Questions
What can I put in?
PDFs (up to 60 pages), PowerPoint slides, photos of pages or handwritten notes, audio (MP3, M4A, WAV, up to 50 MB), a recording you make right in the browser, a YouTube link, or pasted text. You can combine them: the slides and the lecture recording make one note.
Does it make things up?
It is told to use only your material, and it shows its work: every flashcard and quiz question carries the line of your material it comes from, and those lines are checked against your text in code. Chat answers come only from your note and say so when your material doesn't cover a question.
How do the flashcards know when to come back?
They use FSRS, a modern spaced repetition schedule. After each card you say how well you knew it, and the card is scheduled for the day you'd be about to forget it. Review shows only what's due.
What about YouTube videos?
Paste the link and Knomi reads the video's transcript. YouTube sometimes keeps a video's captions to itself; when that happens Knomi names the video and asks you to paste the transcript (on YouTube: More, then Show transcript), so you're never stuck.
What happens to my files and recordings?
They are read once to write your note, then deleted. What stays is the note, its text, and what you make from it, saved to your account and to nobody else's.
Is it free?
Yes. Knomi Notes is free with a Knomi account. You can set everything up before making one; the account is asked for when you make something, and your material waits for you.
