Lecture notes from video: study recorded lectures without pausing every minute
Import a recorded lecture or online course video. Framedistill gives you the transcript and chapter summaries, answers questions about the parts you didn't get, and lets you quote key lines into notes. When you review, click a quote to rewatch that exact moment.
From lecture video to notes
Import the lecture
Paste a YouTube or Bilibili link, or upload the recording.
Skim chapters, ask questions
Use chapter summaries to see the structure; ask about anything unclear and get answers with timestamps.
Build your notes
Quote lines and screenshots of slides into Markdown notes; each quote links back to the video.
Why students use it
Keep up with fast lectures
No more pausing to write things down: the transcript has every word.
Review in minutes
Chapter summaries give you the outline before an exam.
Notes you can trust
Every quote carries its timestamp, so you can always check the original explanation.
FAQ
Does it work for MOOCs and university recordings?
Yes, as long as the video can be uploaded or its link can be fetched. Content behind a course platform login usually needs to be uploaded as a file.
Can I screenshot slides into my notes?
Yes. Press the screenshot button on the player (or Alt+S) to insert the current frame into your note, with a link back to that moment.
Is Framedistill free?
You can sign up for free. AI features such as transcription, chapter summaries and Q&A are limited by your plan and available credits, which you can check on the account credits page after signing in. It is not unlimited.
