Steno turns anything you hear or read into clear, organized notes you can actually study from. Record a lecture, a meeting, an interview or a quick voice memo, and Steno's AI note taker transcribes the audio, writes a structured summary and builds flashcards and a quiz from it – automatically.
No more scrambling to write everything down. Press record, stay present, and let the AI do the note taking.
WHAT STENO DOES
🎙️ RECORD & TRANSCRIBE
Record lectures, meetings, interviews and voice notes. When you stop recording, Steno converts your audio to text with an accurate AI transcript you can read, search and edit. Transcription runs after the recording finishes, so you get clean, complete text every time.
✨ AI SUMMARY
Every note gets a structured summary with key points and key terms. Long lectures and meetings become a readable overview in seconds – perfect for review, revision and catching up on anything you missed.
🃏 AUTOMATIC FLASHCARDS
Steno generates flashcards from your note. Swipe cards as known or unknown and focus on what you still need to learn. A smarter, faster way to study without making cards by hand.
📝 QUIZ MODE
Test yourself with an auto-generated multiple-choice quiz and see your score. Great for exam prep, homework checks and making sure the meeting details actually stuck.
💬 CHAT WITH YOUR NOTES
Ask questions about any note and get answers based on its content. "What were the action items?" "Explain the second key term." Your notes finally talk back.
📷 TEXT & PHOTO IMPORT
Paste text or snap a photo of a textbook page, whiteboard or handout. Steno turns it into a note with a summary, flashcards and quiz – just like an audio recording.
📁 FOLDERS & ORGANIZATION
Keep notes organized by class, project or client with folders and find everything fast.
📄 EXPORT & PRINT
Export any transcript, summary, flashcard set or quiz as a PDF, or print it directly.
