Upload and transcribe tutoring sessions into notes, flashcards, and practice quizzes
Learn how to transcribe tutoring sessions into flashcards, summaries, and study guides automatically using Duetoday's AI learning workspace.
Upload Your Recording
Why transcribing tutoring sessions isn’t enough
Recording your private lessons is a great first step, but a raw text file often becomes a digital graveyard. If you don't interact with the material, you won't retain the complex concepts your tutor explained.
Information Overload: Sifting through a 60-minute transcript to find one specific formula or explanation is time-consuming.
Passive Learning: Simply reading a transcript doesn't trigger active recall, meaning you'll likely forget the session by the next day.
Lack of Structure: Tutors often jump between topics based on your questions, leaving you with a messy, non-linear document.
Quick win: Use a high-quality microphone or place your phone close to your tutor to ensure the AI captures every technical term accurately.
Common mistake: Waiting days to review the transcript. The best time to convert audio to study tools is within 24 hours while the context is fresh.
What you get in Duetoday
Duetoday is a retention-first study system, not just a transcription tool. It transforms your audio into an interactive AI Brain that helps you recall information instantly.
Searchable transcript
Get a word-for-word record of your session that is fully searchable. Quickly find that one moment where your tutor explained organic chemistry bonds without scrubbing through audio.
Best for: Locating specific definitions and clarifying complex verbal explanations.
Smart summary
Duetoday distills long tutoring conversations into concise, structured summaries. It identifies the core themes and removes the filler talk common in 1-on-1 sessions.
Best for: Quick pre-exam reviews and getting a high-level overview of a lesson.
Study guide
Convert your session into a structured study guide. Duetoday organizes the tutor's insights into logical headings, making it easy to see how different concepts connect.

Flashcards (spaced repetition)
This is where the magic happens. Duetoday identifies key facts from your tutoring session and generates flashcards automatically to fuel your active recall sessions.
Best for: Memorizing vocabulary, dates, and core concepts discussed during the lesson.
Practice quiz (active recall)
Test your understanding before the actual exam. The AI generates multiple-choice or short-answer questions based directly on the tutor's unique examples.
Best for: Identifying knowledge gaps and building confidence in your problem-solving skills.
Key questions / action items
Every session ends with clear takeaways. Duetoday extracts the exact tasks your tutor assigned or the specific questions you need to research further.
Best for: Staying organized and ensuring 100% follow-through on homework.
Quick win: Specifically mention "Let's recap the three main points" at the end of your session to help the AI generate a perfect summary.
Common mistake: Thinking a summary replaces the need for practice quizzes; use both to ensure deep retention.

How accurate is the transcription for technical tutoring?
Duetoday uses advanced AI models that specialize in academic and technical terminology. It handles complex subjects like medicine, law, and engineering with high precision by analyzing the context of the conversation. For the best results, ensure the recording is clear of heavy background noise.
Can I upload multiple tutoring sessions at once?
Yes, Duetoday supports bulk uploads, allowing you to process several recordings simultaneously. This helps you build a massive library of knowledge across an entire semester without manual effort. You can then search across all these sessions at once in your AI Brain.
How are the flashcards generated?
The AI analyzes your transcript to find high-value information such as definitions, formulas, and causality. It then formats these into a front-and-back flashcard style perfect for active recall. You can review these directly within the Duetoday workspace.
Will it work for math or science-heavy sessions?
Absolutely. While audio-to-text focuses on the verbal explanation, Duetoday’s AI is excellent at capturing the logic of a tutor’s explanation. When combined with uploaded PDFs or notes, it creates a holistic study system for any subject.
What file types can I upload?
Duetoday supports all standard audio and video formats, including MP3, WAV, and MP4. This means you can upload voice memos from your phone or Zoom recordings from online tutoring sessions seamlessly.
Can teachers share these outputs with students?
Yes, after you transcribe tutoring sessions into flashcards and summaries, the resulting workspace can be used to help students review. It’s a powerful way for tutors to provide extra value after the clock stops.
How is this better than a raw AI transcript?
A raw transcript is just a wall of text that requires more work to study. Duetoday is a retention-first workspace that turns that text into actionable tools like quizzes and action items automatically. It saves you hours of manual note-taking.
How do I get the best results?
To get the most out of the system, encourage your tutor to state key concepts clearly. When you upload the recording, you can also add your session notes or the textbook PDF as additional context for the AI Brain.
