What is Snipo?
Snipo is a browser extension that revolutionizes how you take notes from videos. It works directly on platforms like YouTube, Udemy, Coursera, Skillshare, and LinkedIn Learning. With one click, you capture timestamped notes, screenshots, and even the full transcript—and send everything straight to your Notion workspace. Plus, Snipo includes an AI flashcard maker that can auto-generate flashcards from any video or webpage, which you can then export to Anki. It's designed for students, lifelong learners, and anyone who wants to save time and actually remember what they watch.
