Hi! I'm an indie developer and the maker of video to notes โ€” a tool that turns videos into structured, image-rich text notes.


What is vid2notes?

Unlike most transcription tools that only listen to the audio, video to notes looks at the video frames too. That means:

  • ๐ŸŽฌ **Visual understanding** โ€” slides, diagrams, code on screen, and whiteboard content are captured as images, not lost
  • ๐Ÿ“ **Structured notes** โ€” get organized, readable notes instead of a wall of raw transcript text
  • โฑ๏ธ **Save time** โ€” absorb a 1-hour lecture, tutorial, or meeting recording in minutes
  • ๐ŸŒ **Great for learners** โ€” perfect for online courses, conference talks, and tutorials


Why I built it

I watched too many great videos and forgot them a week later. Pausing to screenshot slides and typing notes by hand was painful โ€” so I built a tool that does it automatically, treating video as *video*, not just audio.


Let's talk
