Stop rewatching 2-hour lecture recordings at 2x speed. Upload any Zoom, Panopto, or Echo360 recording and get structured notes, timestamped chapters, key points, and quiz questions in minutes.
How It Works
Works with recordings from any lecture capture system or video call platform your school uses.
Save the recording from Panopto, Echo360, Zoom, Teams, Kaltura, or your school's LMS as an MP4 or audio file. Most platforms have a download button when your instructor enables it.
Drag and drop the file into VideoNoteGPT. The AI transcribes the full recording with Whisper — handling accents, technical vocabulary, multiple speakers, and audio from screen-share-heavy lectures.
Get a structured summary, timestamped chapters, key points, a vocabulary list, and AI quiz questions. Review a 2-hour lecture in 15 minutes and jump back to timestamps only where you need detail.
Features
Lecture capture platforms record and store. VideoNoteGPT turns those recordings into study material.
A clean, searchable transcript of the entire lecture — even when your school's platform provides no captions or auto-captions too rough to study from.
The AI segments the recording into topic-based chapters with timestamps, so you can jump straight to the derivation, case discussion, or exam hint you need to rewatch.
Concise, exam-focused key points extracted from the whole recording — including things said verbally that never appeared on the slides.
AI quiz questions built from the actual lecture content, so you can test yourself with active recall instead of passively rewatching the recording.
Recordings in Spanish, Hindi, Mandarin, German, and 100+ other languages are transcribed and summarized — and you can output notes in your preferred language.
Download notes as PDF for print review, Markdown for Notion or Obsidian, or flashcard-ready content for Anki — your recording becomes a full study kit.
Who Is This For
If your professors post recordings and you're weeks behind, this is the fastest way to catch up.
Your school records every lecture in Panopto or Echo360, but nobody has time to rewatch them. Turn the backlog into notes you can actually review before exams.
Remote programs run on Zoom and Teams recordings. Summarize each session the same day, keep a searchable archive of the whole semester, and never fall behind.
Sick, working, or double-booked? Upload the recording of the class you missed and get complete notes — better than borrowing a classmate's half-finished ones.
Seminars, colloquia, and defense recordings become structured summaries with key terms defined — searchable months later when you're writing your thesis.

FAQ
Everything you need to know about summarizing recorded lectures with AI.
Can I summarize a Panopto or Echo360 lecture recording?
Yes. If your university allows downloads, save the recording as an MP4 from Panopto or Echo360, then upload it to VideoNoteGPT. The AI transcribes the recording and generates structured notes, timestamped chapters, key points, vocabulary, and quiz questions.
Does it work with Zoom and Microsoft Teams class recordings?
Yes. Zoom and Teams class recordings download as standard MP4 or M4A files, which VideoNoteGPT accepts directly. Upload the file and you get full notes and a searchable transcript — even for recordings with slides, screen shares, and multiple speakers.
How long can the lecture recording be?
The free plan handles recordings up to 45 minutes (3 credits per day). The Pro plan ($9.99/month, 180 credits) supports recordings up to 3 hours — enough for full-length university lectures, seminars, and review sessions.
What file formats are supported?
Common video and audio formats including MP4, M4A, MP3, and WAV. That covers the default export formats of Zoom, Panopto, Echo360, Kaltura, and voice-memo apps, so recordings work without conversion.
Is my uploaded lecture recording private?
Yes. Uploaded recordings are processed to generate your notes and are not shared publicly. Your summaries stay in your account unless you explicitly create a share link.
Do I have to rewatch the lecture to make notes?
No — that is the point. Instead of rewatching a 2-hour recording at 2x speed, upload it once and review structured notes in 10-15 minutes. Timestamped chapters let you jump back to the exact moment in the recording when something needs a closer look.
Upload any Zoom, Panopto, or Echo360 lecture recording and get structured AI notes, chapters, and quiz questions — free and in minutes.
