SpeakNotes

Drop in a YouTube link, a recorded lecture or a PDF and get back a short written summary you can edit and file.

SpeakNotes is an AI note taker and transcription tool that turns audio and video into concise notes.

The free plan is enough to try it, but it is tight: notes are capped at 5 minutes, you get 3 basic styles, and it works with audio, video, PDF and YouTube only, for a single user.

The Pro plan costs $14.99 a month and removes the length limit.

It adds all note styles plus custom templates, revision history, and support for text and image inputs.

Pro also brings team sharing and collaboration, tools for combining notes, and priority email and chat support.

If your recordings run longer than a few minutes, you will likely need Pro.
