Hi HN! I made this because I always forget what I'm trying to learn from YouTube. Test yourself: Can you remember the main concepts from the last (educational) video you watched? So, why not highlight and take notes on YouTube videos, just like in books? That's TubePen. Sign in, replace "youtube" with "tubepen" in your YouTube URL, and you're ready to retain more from your videos. I’d love your feedback! What do you think of my landing page? Use the 10-day free trial and see if it’s useful for you. Thanks!

Since the content is highly customized, it will be relevant and high-quality, matching current lessons or lectures in school or university. Initially, the pipeline also generated some teaching content using AI, but due to the risk of AI hallucinations, I'm planning to pivot away from that. The new focus will be on curating…

I use it almost daily and thought others might find it useful. I submitted this to HN 6 years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14409019

YouTube learning has no structure—your learnings are scattered across random playlists, you're just passively watching without retention, and there's no one to ask when you don't understand something. I built Notetube to solves this by combining organizational tools with AI to create an actual learning system: Organizational layer: Create structured collections by topic/course/skill, track your learning progress with visual dashboards, and set achievable learning goals AI layer: Auto-generated comprehensive notes (3000+ words for 1 hours video) and summaries from any video, key…
