AI that watches your video and writes study notes as you watch
Captures code, equations, diagrams and slide content exactly as they appear, so notes are complete even on videos with no captions.
Generates headings, bullets and syntax-highlighted code blocks that drop straight into an Obsidian vault or any Markdown editor.
One click adds the current frame to your notes at the right timestamp, ideal for diagrams, demos and UI walkthroughs.
Listen to a speaker in your own language while the video stays in sync, and ask Hovie to explain or summarise any moment using your notes and screenshots.

The AI workspace where teams and agents get work done together
Combine docs, wikis, projects, and databases into one structured system of record that stays linked as your content grows.
Draft, summarize, translate, and answer questions inline, or build custom agents that automate recurring workflows around the clock.
Find answers instantly across Notion and connected apps, with citations so you can verify where each answer came from.
Use relations, rollups, views, and a large template gallery to model anything from a CRM to a content calendar.
