Common questions

Short answers to what people usually ask before running a job.

  • Upload a video file (MP4, MOV, MKV) or paste a Vimeo link. You can add multiple videos and they'll each become a chapter in the same compendium.

  • A Word file (.docx) you can open in Word, Google Docs, or Pages — ready to edit, highlight, and make your own. You also get an HTML version you can open in any browser. Both include structured notes and screenshots from the video.

  • It depends on the length of the video. A one-hour lecture typically takes 3–6 minutes. The app shows a progress bar and estimated time while it runs.

  • No. Your videos and transcripts are only used to generate your compendium and are not used for training.
