Record the lecture. The night before the exam, ask.
You record the lecture or snap a photo of your notes, and CleverNote transcribes, summarizes and stores it as searchable material. The night before the exam you ask in plain language (what does the lecture say about photosynthesis?) and CleverNote answers from your own class, citing where it is.
Real example
What does the lecture cover on photosynthesis?
From Wednesday's class: the light and dark reactions, where each happens in the chloroplast, and why the cycle matters, with the points the slides stressed.

How it works
- Record the lecture in the app, or snap a photo of your notebook and essays. The note is usable instantly, no waiting.
- CleverNote transcribes the audio and summarizes the material, without erasing the original.
- The night before the exam, ask in plain language: what does the lecture cover on photosynthesis?
- The answer comes from your own class, citing where it is. No claim without a source.
Why CleverNote for this
- Transcribing is only the start: CleverNote answers your question about the material instead of handing back a wall of text to reread.
- Voice and photo capture: record the lecture live, or photograph your notebook, the slide and your essay.
- Every answer cites the source, so you check it against your own class instead of trusting a loose summary.
- Private by default: export or delete everything anytime, no training on your material.
The night before the exam, you do not want to reread four lectures: you want to ask and get the answer with its source. Capture the material during the week and leave the hard question for CleverNote to answer from your own class.

- Does it work with a spoken lecture and the professor's accent?
- Yes. CleverNote transcribes the spoken lecture even with classroom noise and accents, then summarizes the material. If something comes out wrong, you fix it in plain language, in one sentence.
- Is this just a transcription?
- No. The transcript is the middle step. The point is asking afterward and getting the answer pulled from your own class, with the source next to it, instead of rereading everything.
- How much does it cost?
- Free up to 15 notes and 30 questions per month, or US$4.99/month unlimited.
