Why transcribing study sessions for exams isn’t enough
Getting a text version of your study group or solo review is just the first step. If you simply transcribe study sessions for exams and let the text sit in a folder, you are still left with hours of raw dialogue to sort through. Real exam prep requires synthesis, not just a script. You need to identify where you struggled and what the group finally concluded on a complex topic.
Information Overload: Sifting through 60 minutes of casual conversation to find the 5 minutes of core exam content.
Passive Learning: Reading a transcript is passive; it doesn’t challenge your memory or prepare you for exam questions.
Missing Context: Transcripts often lose the hierarchy of importance that a structured study guide provides.
Quick win: Record your session on your phone and upload it immediately after while the context is fresh in your mind.
Common mistake: Waiting until the week of the exam to read through your old transcripts—it's too much data to process at once.
What you get in Duetoday
Duetoday is a retention-first AI learning workspace. We turn your audio into a full study system, helping you connect your lecture notes, PDFs, and study sessions in one place.
Searchable transcript
Find exactly what was said about a specific theorem or date in seconds. No more scrubbing through audio bars to find that one breakthrough moment from your group chat.
Example: Search "mitosis" to jump to the exact moment your study partner explained the phases.
Best for: Verifying specific facts and finding timestamps.
Smart summary
Duetoday extracts the core essence of your session. It removes the filler words and off-topic tangents to give you a clean, high-level overview of the material covered.
Example: A 2-hour cram session becomes a 5-page structured summary.
Best for: Quick pre-exam reviews and high-level comprehension.
Study guide
Automatically generate a comprehensive study guide. Duetoday organizes the transcript into logical headers, bullet points, and bolded key terms so you can see the big picture.
Example: Your messy group discussion is converted into a structured outline by chapter.
Best for: Building a framework for final exam weekend.
Flashcards (spaced repetition)
Don't just read—test yourself. Duetoday identifies key definitions and concepts to create flashcards that integrate into your long-term memory workflow.
Example: Key terms from the session become "Term/Definition" cards instantly.
Best for: Daily review and active recall of vocabulary.
Practice quiz (active recall)
Challenge your understanding with AI-generated questions based on your specific study session. This simulates the exam environment before you sit for the real thing.
Example: Multiple-choice questions based on the specific examples your tutor gave.
Best for: Testing knowledge gaps and reducing exam anxiety.
Key questions / action items
Get a list of what you still need to research. Duetoday identifies questions that weren't fully answered in the session so you know exactly what to ask your professor.
Example: A checklist of "Topics to clarify with the TA" generated from your session.
Best for: Post-session follow-up and staying organized.
Quick win: Use the "Key Questions" list to guide your next focused library session.
Common mistake: Thinking a summary is enough—always use the practice quizzes to verify you actually know the material.
How it works
Upload your recording: Simply drag and drop your voice memo, Zoom recording, or audio file into the Duetoday workspace.
AI Processing: Our system transcribes the audio and instantly generates your summary, flashcards, and practice questions.
Study and Recall: Use the AI Tutor to ask questions about the session or use the study mode to test your knowledge with the generated quizzes.
Checklist before you upload
Ensure the audio file is clear and audible.
Label your file with the date and subject for better organization.
Have your related PDFs or slides ready to link for context.
Decide which study mode (flashcards vs quizzes) you want to focus on first.
Quick win: Use the Google Calendar integration to schedule your review of the generated flashcards.
Common mistake: Forgetting to check the "Action Items" list, which often contains the hints your tutor gave about what will be on the test.

Never start your exam prep from scratch. By the time you sit down to study, your notes are already organized and ready for review.
What changes: Immediate transition from recording to active studying.
What changes: Reduced stress because the framework is already built.

What changes: Higher retention through active recall and spaced repetition.
What changes: Identification of weak spots before they become exam failures.
Centralized Learning Brain
All your transcriptions, PDFs, and links live in one place. Your "AI Brain" knows everything you've uploaded and connects the dots across different sessions.
What changes: You can search your entire semester's worth of study sessions in one go.
What changes: Better synthesis of recurring themes across different chapters.
"The flashcards generated from my study sessions were the reason I passed my finals. I didn't have to spend hours making them myself."
Quick win: Use the search bar to see if a topic was mentioned in both a lecture and a study session.
Common mistake: Keeping your study session transcripts in a separate app from your lecture notes.

It’s a great way to ensure all students have access to the material discussed in review sessions. You can easily export the generated summaries to share with the class.

What are the best results tips?
For the best results, ensure your recording device is close to the speaker and try to minimize background noise. If you are in a group session, encourage everyone to speak clearly. This helps the AI accurately distinguish between different speakers and complex terms.
