Chapter summaries

See what each part of a video covers, then click its timestamp to listen from there.

Key highlights

Find the ideas worth hearing. Jump from a highlight straight to that moment in the video.

One-click save

Search what was said

Search inside any video's transcript and jump straight to the line you remember.

Highlight reels

Stitch your best clips into a reel so the whole video is one tap away from its best parts.

Spot the sponsor reads

Ad reads are detected and marked on the timeline, so you know what to skip.

Export anywhere

Send clips, notes, transcripts, and AI chats to Word, PDF, or a share link. Subtitles as .srt too.

Workspaces & tags

Organize by project or topic, with tags the AI can suggest for you.
