Recall: AI-Powered Notes to Remember Everything You Read

this new AI tool is one of the best studing tools I ever tried it makes it easy to digest information and internalize it so you can remember what you learned for a long time Reco combines linked nodes flashcards and AI perfectly I've been using it for the past few months and loving it so I'm glad that they currently offer to sponsor us so let's dive [Music] in so we read and watch a lot of things every day most of it isn't important like celebrity gossip or for random news but they are some things that we

want to remember for example you might come across something that teaches you something new if you just read it and leave you're likely to forget it in a few days which is a shame in my case I usually make flashcards on Anki or remote when I come across something interesting so I can memorize them but this takes time instead I recently just save it to Reco using its browser extension this will turn the whole article or video into a a summary with key concept under ideas which is also very handy when you're dealing with a

lot of information like a 20 minute long YouTube video or podcast which can be more than an hour also the summary has time stamps so that you can go to the exact moment if you want to fully watch or listen to the part it came from now if you want to quickly scan the article or video you can just go through the summary instead of reading the whole thing and this is for anything you want to remember so it can be a Wikipedia page a PDF file or even a recipe you don't have to be

using your computer to save something to recall if you're reading or watching something on your phone it's mobile app has a share option that sends a content to recall directly these summaries will be in your recall Library I really like it automatically finds keywords within the content and highlights them so you can easily see them it makes it easy to dive deeper into a topic and explore further you just need to click on the highlighted keyword and it will take you to a new page initially you may not see much there but once you hit

the expand button R grabs more information about it it's kind of similar to reading on Wikipedia but it's fun to explore topics this way I recently took a trip to Northern Europe and was reading about the Church of Norway it was really enjoyable to learn the history this way because reading about one thing leads to another and then another I also got to find out the links between historical figures events and so on also something I really appreciate is this breadcrumbs at the top of the page it shows you the path you took to get

there it's useful because when you are on a deep exploration it's really easy to lose track of where you are this way you can always go back to the previous Pages you were this is one of the big differences from just reading a Wikipedia plus Reco can automatically organize while you read into topics and categories if you read about person it's automatically added to the person category or if you watch a YouTube video there will be a tag for that channel so you can see all the videos from it I really like that this saves

time from manually having to organize my notes and things I saved in terms of exploring topics the graph view is quite fun too since you get to see how the topics are related you can explore until you find something interesting then you can click on the topic to see more about it it's possible to create your own links or Pages as well you just have to highlight a word or a phrase and click on create a link you can even add your no too if you want to now you don't need to import from the

web to read something on recall there is the quick add button on the top right corner or simply press command K it will open the sbare for you to type what you want to know about unless it's something very Niche or minor you should be able to find what you're looking for but the best thing about recall is the ability to generate flash cards with AI not everything you read is going to be useful but for the important ones it can help you remember them to do that just hit the generated questions button from the

three dot at the top right corner and it will create about 10 questions from the page not all of them are going to be good questions so you can delete some of them or add your own in my experience it's really easy to make hundreds of flash cards but that will quickly become overwhelming so I recommend you keep it to just a a few important ones per page now whenever I have free time I use a mobile app to review the questions instead of going to Twitter Instagram or something I can do a a round

of flash cards to make sure I remember what I learned the fact that they have a good mobile app is a big reason why I love Reco because I get to use it on the go whenever I have some time on the train in in the toilet or while waiting for someone flash cards are obviously such a great tool for students if you're in school you can take lecture notes in Reco and make some flash cards to review them or import some papers to get a summary of them since it let you organize them with

tags it's quite easy to sort them by a topic or a subject but it can be useful for anyone for example if you get a new job or transfer to a different department and need to learn new things in the field quickly this is a great tool to help you out for me it's an essential life tool to learn something new and remember important things I usually use apps like um perplexity arar or Bela to do research since their results come with references to do original Source I can go check it then for something I

need to remember I can use Reco to save it and generate flashcards the same goes for desktop for important information I don't want to forget I can use the uh browser extension to see the summary and save it to Rico all right you can try Reco for free from the link in the description it works on the web and as a mobile lab as well it's a great tool to have in your toolbox okay thank you so much for watching till the end I appreciate you sticking around until that last moment um I will see

you in the next one bye
