Rec2Note

What

Rec2Note is a CLI tool for turning your lecture recording into hyper-focused markdown notes.

Why

As a student, i love lecture recordings are great for:

  • exam review
  • finding a topic you just know the professor mentioned but couldn’t remember
  • taking detailed notes of lecture topic
  • … However, sitting through hours of lecture recording is not optimized for active learning or time management.

How

Rec2Note aims to solve this via extracting a transcript from the lecture recording, running it through multiple specialed LLM agents to generate markdown note containing:

  • summary of the lecture
  • deadlines mentioned
  • study questions
  • student questions and professor answers

Built with:

  • Package manager: uv
  • CLI: Typer + Rich
  • LLM: Gemini API
