Abdallah Mtavya
Developer
HoverNotes is an absolute game-changer for developers and learners! The real-time AI-powered notes, complete with syntax-highlighted code snippets and screenshots, have saved me so much time—no more rewinding videos to catch details! The split-view mode is a brilliant addition, allowing me to watch and take notes simultaneously.

Professional
This is a must-have for anyone who watches video tutorials and needs efficient note-taking without constantly rewinding. It automatically generates structured summaries, capturing key points without requiring you to pause and write things down manually. The integration with video platforms is seamless.
Founder
HoverNotes
I first encountered the problem during the pandemic – endless video lectures that I couldn't keep up with. I would manually capture screenshots just to create study materials I could actually use. HoverNotes is the tool I wished I had then – turning video learning from a temporary experience into permanent knowledge. Now with Obsidian integration, your notes become part of your broader knowledge system, not just isolated content.
