Upload, transcribe GCSE classes and convert into a study tool (summaries, notes + practice tools)
Transcribe GCSE classes into study guides, flashcards, and quizzes. Use Duetoday to turn audio recordings into a retention-first learning workspace.
Upload Your Recording
Why transcribing GCSE classes isn’t enough
Recording your teacher is a great first step, but a massive block of text won't help you pass your exams. Most students find that raw transcripts are disorganized, filled with filler words, and difficult to navigate when revising under pressure.
Transcripts lack hierarchy, making it hard to find specific GCSE syllabus topics.
Reading a wall of text is passive learning, which leads to poor information retention.
Without structure, you spend more time editing the text than actually studying the material.
Quick win: Use your phone's voice memo app to record the lesson, then immediately upload it to Duetoday to keep the context fresh.
Common mistake: Thinking that just having the text of the lesson counts as revision. You need active recall to make the information stick.
What you get in Duetoday
Duetoday is a complete learning workspace, not just a transcription tool. It takes your recorded lessons and builds a structured brain that helps you recall every detail from your GCSE classes.
Searchable transcript
Never scroll through hours of audio again. Duetoday creates a timestamped, searchable text version of your lesson so you can hop straight to the explanation of quadratic equations or tectonic plates.
Best for: Finding specific quotes or teacher explanations quickly.
Result: Saves hours of manual searching.
Smart summary
Get a concise breakdown of the entire lesson. Duetoday identifies the core themes and removes the "ums," "ahs," and side-chatter, leaving you with the pure gold of the curriculum.
Best for: Quick pre-exam reviews.
Result: Understand a 60-minute lesson in 5 minutes.
Study guide
Transform your audio into a structured document. It organizes the transcription of your GCSE classes into logical headings, bullet points, and clear sections that mirror your exam board’s requirements.
Best for: Building a comprehensive revision folder.
Result: Professional-grade notes without the manual typing.
Flashcards (spaced repetition)
Duetoday automatically pulls out key terms and definitions to create flashcards. This moves information from the transcript into your long-term memory using spaced repetition principles.
Best for: Memorizing vocabulary, dates, and formulas.
Result: Automated active recall prep.
Practice quiz (active recall)
Test your knowledge immediately. Based on the content of your GCSE classes, Duetoday generates quizzes to ensure you actually understood the lesson material.
Best for: Identifying knowledge gaps before the mock exams.
Result: High-confidence exam performance.
Key questions / action items
The AI identifies what you need to do next. Whether it's a homework assignment mentioned by the teacher or a topic you need to look up in a textbook, it’s all listed clearly.
Best for: Staying organized with homework and deadlines.
Result: Never miss a GCSE assignment again.
Quick win: Generate flashcards immediately after transcribing to test yourself while the lesson is fresh.
Common mistake: Ignoring the 'action items' section; often, teachers hide exam tips in their closing remarks.
How it works
Upload: Record your GCSE classes on any device and upload the audio file or a link to Duetoday's secure workspace.
Process: The AI engine handles the transcription, identifies key concepts, and begins building your study materials instantly.
Study: Open your new study guide, flip through flashcards, or take a practice quiz based entirely on what your teacher said.
Checklist before you upload
Ensure the recording device is close to the teacher for clear audio.
Check that you have a stable internet connection for the initial upload.
Title your file with the subject and date (e.g., GCSE History - Cold War - Oct 12).
Make sure you have permission to record the classroom session.
Quick win: If your teacher uses slides, upload the PDF version alongside the audio for a 'connected context' experience.
Common mistake: Uploading ultra-long silent gaps at the start or end of a recording which can clutter your workspace.

How accurate is the transcription for GCSE classes?
Duetoday uses advanced AI models that are highly accurate even in classroom settings with background noise. It recognizes academic terminology across subjects like Biology, History, and Geography. For best results, place your recorder near the speaker.
Can I upload multiple GCSE class recordings at once?
Yes, Duetoday supports bulk uploads, allowing you to process an entire week’s worth of lessons at the same time. This helps you keep your learning brain updated without constant manual effort. You can then organize them into specific subject folders.
How does Duetoday make flashcards from my lessons?
The AI scans the transcription of your GCSE classes for definitions, key dates, and important concepts. It then formats these into front-and-back flashcards automatically. You can edit them or add your own context before you start studying.
Will it generate quizzes for specific exam boards?
While the AI focuses on the content of your specific recorded lesson, its deep knowledge of GCSE criteria allows it to generate questions that mimic the style of major exam boards. This ensures your practice is relevant to what you’ll see on paper.
What file types can I upload?
Duetoday supports standard audio formats like MP3, WAV, and M4A, as well as video files. You can also import links from YouTube or upload PDFs of lecture slides to complement your audio transcripts.
Can teachers share these transcripts with their students?
Absolutely, teachers can use Duetoday to transcribe their lessons and then share the structured notes and study guides with the whole class. This is perfect for supporting students who may have missed a lesson or need extra help.
How is this better than a raw transcript?
A raw transcript is just a script; Duetoday is a study system. It layers the transcript with summaries, quizzes, and an AI tutor that can answer questions about the lesson, providing a much higher level of interactivity.
Any tips for getting the best transcription results?
Try to minimize rustling papers or whispering near the microphone. If your teacher uses a microphone in a large lecture hall, sitting near a speaker will significantly improve the clarity of the transcription.
Is there a free version to try out?
Duetoday offers a way to try out the features so you can see the quality of the transcription and the study tools first-hand. This allows you to test the workflow before committing to a plan for the whole school year.
Does it work for specific GCSE subjects like Science or Maths?
Yes, the AI is trained on a wide variety of academic disciplines. It can handle complex scientific terminology and structured logic, making it an excellent tool for everything from GCSE English Literature to Triple Science.
Duetoday is an AI-powered learning OS that turns your study materials into personalised, bite-sized study guides, cheat sheets, and active learning flows.
