Turn YouTube into your notebook.

Free to use. No account needed to start.

Everything you need to capture what you watch

⏱️

Chapters & sections

Mark any moment, or highlight a whole range as a section — straight from the player.

📝

Rich notes

Write formatted notes (headings, bold, lists) on each section or as standalone notes.

🗂️

Nested folders

Organize chapters from many videos into nested folders — like Research › Interviews or Biology › Lectures.

↕️

Drag to reorder

Arrange chapters, videos, and folders by your revision sequence — not just timeline.

☁️

Sync everywhere

Premium syncs and backs up to the cloud, restored on any device you sign in to.

🔒

Private by design

Local-first. Your notes never leave your device unless you turn on cloud sync.

Three steps

1

Add chapters

Hit the button on the player to mark a moment or a section.

2

Take notes

Write formatted notes and tag them, all beside the video.

3

Organize & revisit

Group across videos into folders and reorder them however you work.
