- International students following multilingual lectures
- Worth noticing
- The FAQ says lecture language can switch mid-class, and that notes and recordings are stored on the user's device.
Field notes
The listed workflow extends beyond translation: it includes following slides as they turn, keeping a professional vocabulary list, checking notes line by line, and sorting records by course. The FAQ says AI processing sends only the text and audio segments needed for that task, and that those materials are not used to train models; these are the site's stated privacy practices.
