For Students

Write your essay from the lectures and articles you saved

MensorAI helps when you have to write from what you watched and read, like an essay or a report. It doesn’t make flashcards or quiz you, so keep Anki for memorizing. Save lectures and articles, ask across them, and each claim links back to its passage.

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 Students

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

You remember a lecture made the point you need, but not which video or when

Notes from videos and readings end up spread across tabs, docs and screenshots

Quoting a lecture means scrubbing through an hour of video to find the line

AI chat gives you an answer but can’t show you where it came from

Memorizing for exams is its own job, and it needs a flashcard app

Where MensorAI Fits

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

Save lecture moments and readings in one place

Open the browser extension on a YouTube lecture and save the moment you’re at, with the captions around it when the video has them. Articles save whole, and a passage you select is kept as a highlight.

Ask across everything you saved

Ask a question and MensorAI answers from your whole library, or type @ to pick a few sources. The answer shows which sources it used, and each claim links to its passage.

Collect the evidence in a piece

Keep the claims you want in a piece for the essay, each with the passage behind it, under the question it answers. Copy it into your doc with the citations included. MensorAI doesn’t write the essay for you.

Use a flashcard app for memorizing

MensorAI has no flashcards, quizzes or spaced repetition. If you’re studying for an exam, Anki or a similar app is the better tool for that part.
