Why transcribing revision sessions isn’t enough
Many students think that having a raw text file of their study group or lecture is the final goal. In reality, a wall of text from a messy audio file is often just as overwhelming as the original recording.
Raw transcripts lack hierarchy, making it impossible to find specific topics quickly.
Verbal filler and 'ums' clutter the page, hiding the actual exam-relevant content.
Reading a transcript is passive learning, which leads to poor retention and exam day anxiety.
Quick win: Record your session using a high-quality mic to ensure the AI catches specific technical terminology and dates.
Common mistake: Thinking a transcript is a study guide. You need to transform that text into active recall tools to actually learn.
What you get in Duetoday
Duetoday is a retention-first AI learning workspace. It doesn't just give you text; it builds a complete study system from your audio recordings, PDFs, and notes.
Searchable transcript
Every word spoken in your revision session becomes a searchable database. You can jump to the exact moment a specific formula or historical date was mentioned without scrubbing through hours of audio.
Example: If you're reviewing Biology, search 'Mitochondria' to find every mention across your semester's recordings.
Best for: Fact-checking facts instantly.
Best for: Navigating long group discussions.
Smart summary
Duetoday converts hours of talk into concise, structured summaries. It identifies the core themes and removes the fluff so you can review a 60-minute session in 5 minutes.
Example: Turn a chaotic group debate about economic theories into a clean, bulleted list of pros and cons.
Best for: Pre-exam high-level review.
Best for: Understanding the 'big picture' quickly.
Study guide
The AI analyzes your material to create a structured roadmap. It connects your revision sessions with uploaded PDFs and Notion notes to create one source of truth.
Example: Generate a 10-page guide that links your verbal notes on Chemistry with your textbook diagrams.
Best for: Organizing large volumes of information.
Best for: Consolidating multiple study sources.
Flashcards (spaced repetition)
Duetoday automatically extracts key terms and definitions to create digital flashcards. These aren't just random; they are built directly from what was discussed in your session.
Example: Instantly create 20 cards on French verb conjugations after your language lab.
Best for: Long-term memory retention.
Best for: Using the 'Active Recall' methodology.
Practice quiz (active recall)
This is where you turn passive listening into active testing. Duetoday generates multiple-choice and short-answer questions based on your transcript content.
Example: Test yourself on the specific practice problems your teacher highlighted during the revision hour.
Best for: Identifying knowledge gaps.
Best for: Simulating exam conditions.
Key questions / action items
Get a list of 'must-know' items and tasks generated from the session's highlights. It ensures you never walk away from a revision session wondering what to do next.
Example: A checklist of three chapters you still need to read based on your gaps in the quiz.
Best for: Planning your study schedule.
Best for: Closing the loop on hard-to-understand topics.
Quick win: Use the Flashcards feature while you're on the bus to maximize small windows of study time.
Common mistake: Skipping the practice quiz. Testing yourself is the most effective way to ensure information sticks for the long term.
How it works
Upload your audio: Drag and drop your revision session recording or paste a YouTube link. Duetoday supports bulk uploads if you have multiple sessions to process.
Generate study tools: The AI brain processes the context, connecting it to your existing notes and PDFs to create transcripts and summaries.
Convert to Quizzes: Select the 'Practice Quiz' mode to instantly transform the transcript into a set of questions tailored to your material.
Checklist before you upload
Ensure the audio file is clear of heavy background noise.
Name your files clearly (e.g., 'Bio-Unit-1-Revision') for easier organization.
Have your supporting PDFs or slide decks ready to upload alongside the audio.
Set aside 10 minutes to review the generated flashcards for accuracy.
Quick win: Use Duetoday’s YouTube import if your revision session was a recorded livestream or a tutorial video.
Common mistake: Uploading hours of audio without adding your own class notes. Duetoday works best when it has context from both sources.

How accurate is the transcription for complex revision sessions?
Duetoday uses advanced AI models that handle technical terminology across various subjects quite well. While no AI is 100% perfect, you can easily edit the transcript or use the AI tutor to clarify specific parts. The accuracy improves when you provide context like PDFs or textbook chapters. For best results, ensure your recording has minimal background noise.
Can I upload multiple recordings at once?
Yes, Duetoday supports bulk audio uploads so you can process an entire week’s worth of revision sessions in one go. Once uploaded, each recording is transcribed and can be integrated into your central learning brain. This allows you to search for concepts across multiple files simultaneously. It is a massive time-saver for students during finals week.
How are the practice quizzes generated from the audio?
Once your session is transcribed, the AI analyzes the core concepts and facts discussed. It then crafts multiple-choice, true/false, or short-answer questions designed to test your understanding. These quizzes are specific to your material rather than generic textbook questions. This ensures you are prepared for the exact topics your teacher emphasized.
What file types can I upload to Duetoday?
We support a wide range of common audio formats including MP3, WAV, and M4A, as well as video files. You can also import content directly via YouTube links, which is perfect for recorded lectures. Beyond audio, you can upload PDFs and sync with Notion for a complete study experience. This variety makes it easy to bring all your sources into one place.
Is this better than just using a basic transcription tool?
Basic transcription tools only give you a wall of text, which is hard to learn from. Duetoday is an AI workspace that turns that text into flashcards, summaries, and quizzes. It connects the transcript to your other notes and calendar, creating a personalized learning ecosystem. The goal is retention and recall, not just having a written record of the audio.
Can teachers use this to share quizzes with students?
Absolutely, teachers can upload their revision sessions or lectures and use the generated quizzes as classroom assessments. You can export the content or share it within the workspace to save time on curriculum development. It provides a quick way to provide students with high-quality study materials. Many educators find this helpful for flipping the classroom model.
How do I get the best results from my recordings?
To get the best results, try to record your revision sessions in a quiet environment and keep the microphone close to the speaker. If you are recording a group, try to speak one at a time to help the AI distinguish voices. Including the relevant PDF or slide deck alongside the audio helps the AI understand the context better. This ensures the summaries and quizzes are as precise as possible.
Does Duetoday create flashcards automatically?
Yes, Duetoday can automatically extract key terms and concepts from your revision session transcript to create flashcards. You can then use these for spaced repetition study, which is proven to increase long-term memory. You can also manually add cards if the AI missed a niche detail you want to remember. It’s a seamless transition from listening to active studying.
Is there a limit to how long my revision session can be?
Duetoday is designed to handle long-form content, including hour-long lectures and deep-dive revision seminars. While extremely long files may take a moment longer to process, the system is robust enough for typical academic needs. You can upload several long sessions and organize them into different folders or subjects. Organization is key when dealing with heavy workloads.
What is the benefit of the AI tutor feature?
The AI tutor is context-aware, meaning it knows everything inside your uploaded revision sessions and PDFs. You can ask it to 'Explain the concept of quantum physics from my last transcript' and it will provide a clear answer based on that specific recording. It acts as a 24/7 study partner that never gets tired of your questions. This is much more effective than searching through a 50-page transcript manually.
Duetoday is an AI-powered learning OS that turns your study materials into personalised, bite-sized study guides, cheat sheets, and active learning flows.
