What MensorAI does now

Save as you read. Ask when you write.

MensorAI started as a YouTube note-taking tool for learners. Now it saves articles, passages and YouTube moments as you go, and when you sit down to write, you ask across all of them. Every answer links back to the passage it came from.

The Challenge for Writers on a budget

Sound familiar? Here’s what usually gets in the way.

It’s hard to tell what a free plan actually includes
Some free YouTube note extensions have stopped getting updates
A doc full of pasted links doesn’t help when you need a quote
You want to try the AI part before you pay for it

Where MensorAI Fits

Here’s what it does for this kind of work today.

Saving is free

Save the YouTube moment you’re at, whole articles, passages you select and your own notes without paying. The web app also takes YouTube links.

Asking needs a trial or a plan

7-day free trial of Pro features with a limited AI allowance. No credit card required. Asking across your library and finding videos on YouTube need that trial or a paid plan.

Plans differ only in AI requests

Starter is $9, Plus $19 and Pro $22 a month. The only difference is how many AI requests you get per day: 10, 50 or 100.

Your library stays after the trial

When the trial ends, everything you saved stays in your library and you can keep saving for free. You only pay if you want to keep asking.
