    Memo Card

    freemium • Free tier available
    Updated Oct 2026

    Memo Card is built for the specific problem of sitting through a lecture you only half-followed. It records or ingests the class audio, then produces structured study material on top of it: a summary, source-linked mind maps, extracted keywords, and quiz questions generated from what was actually said. The detail that separates it from generic transcription is that every AI-generated note stays tied to a timestamp in the recording, so when a summary line looks wrong or too compressed you can jump straight to the ten seconds of audio it came from instead of trusting the model blind. The bilingual side matters for international students. Real-time translation means you can follow a lecture in one language while reading notes in another, which is a very different workflow from transcribing afterwards and running the text through a translator. There is also a timestamped AI tutor that answers questions in the context of the lecture rather than in the abstract. It suits university students with dense lecture loads, anyone studying in a second language, and self-learners working through recorded courses. It is less useful if your material is already text — a textbook or PDF course goes through a normal document tool faster. Accuracy still depends on microphone quality and how clearly the lecturer speaks, so test it on one real class before relying on it for exam prep.
