Turn long reading into notes you'll actually use

Create study notes, flashcards and action steps from material you're reading.

Why it works

Notes in your own words beat highlighting. AI helps you structure and test them.

Step by step

  1. Feed your notes.

    Here are my rough notes on chapter [N] of [BOOK]. Organize them into key ideas, examples, and questions I still have:
    [NOTES]

    Fill in the [brackets] with your details before you send.

  2. Make flashcards.

    Turn these key ideas into 10 question/answer flashcards.
  3. Apply it.

    Suggest 3 ways I could apply these ideas this week in my [WORK/LIFE].

    Fill in the [brackets] with your details before you send.

Replace anything in [BRACKETS] with your details. Works with most AI chat assistants. The ChatGPT and Claude buttons open a new chat with the prompt already typed in, and you press send. Gemini doesn't accept pre-filled links, so its button copies the prompt for you to paste. For steps 2 and later, paste into the same chat you started so the AI keeps the context.
