Explaining YouTube videos, summarizing long texts/PDFs and visualizing complex data/information using Recap is the best choice. Good going!

@shahza1bmushtaq Hahaha 。 Thank you for you reply! i'm really glad you noticed the special support for Youtube. This is mainly because our team spends a lot of time learning on Youtube. In addition to the user experience itself, it can also be considered a form of self-expression.

Hi, team. I've tried Recap and I have to say it's a brilliant idea! There is an issue when I use it to understand a PDF of my product. It seems like cannot understand the pic in a doc very well, right? Will it be supported in the future?
Zhiqi Shi
@jackyliu Thank you so much for your support! Yes, we'll soon support image-based PDF files. Please look forward to the update!
Jacky Liu
@zhiqi_shi Cool! Looking forward to the new version! I would purchase!
Lixin Liu
@jackyliu Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We're really glad to hear you find it a brilliant idea. Regarding the issue with understanding images in PDFS, you're right that there can be limitations in how well those are interpreted. In this version, we're more focused on providing capture content of web links.

This is a fantastic approach to knowledge visualization! The combination of AI-driven analysis with multi-perspective questioning could really transform how we process and retain information. The 600+ upvotes in just a day show I'm not alone in seeing the potential here. The 25% launch discount makes it even more appealing. As someone who deals with lots of complex information daily, having AI help create visual insights could be a game-changer for both learning and presentation. Would love to see how it handles different types of content sources and its visualization capabilities for technical vs. non-technical material.
Zhiqi Shi
@xi_z Thank you for your kind words! You've captured the two main differentiators between Recap and other knowledge tools. Wish you have a great experience here.

💡 Bright idea
Finally someone made an app to help human connect with AI on a cognition level. I remember reading that our brain operates at the speed of 10 bit/s, which is surprisingly low. Our brains needs help from apps like recap to cope with AI. Great work and congrats on the launch!

Hi Zhiqi, awesome idea cut to the precise needs for summarization of all sources. I wonder can you define the purpose of summarization you are using for? Like can you use it for competitive analysis?
Zhiqi Shi
@zoeyhuang Thank your for your appreciation. We believe Recap is best suited for educational and content creator use cases at this moment. However, we've noticed some professional users, such as business analysts and lawyers. We're still debating whether to seriously support these professional use cases within Recap or to develop a separate product to meet their needs better.
wenbei mao

Added the extension and from the first minutes of working with there is an interest in learning it. Super cool mindmap for visuals, it's definitely easier to memorize tons of information. I was surprised to get a video transcript for my language even though I didn't see it on the list originally. Will definitely look into it further. You've done maximum useful thing guys!

Why when I upload a pdf is it not creating any visuals? I am getting a summary at the top and the expert questions just no visuals. The free version says 3 visuals a day. Thanks!
