Assistive note-taking tool (formerly Glean) that records and transcribes lectures and classes for students.
Screen/audio recorder with AI transcription and notes
Genio, formerly known as Glean, is an assistive note-taking platform that helps students capture and learn from lectures and classes. It records class audio and provides live captions during the session, then generates a full transcript afterward, letting students focus on understanding rather than frantically writing notes. Genio lets learners add their own notes, organize material with AI-generated outlines, import slides and reading material, and review with study features such as quizzing, tying recorded audio together with class content. The platform is widely used by students, including learners with specific learning difficulties, and is adopted by educational institutions that provide it as a study and accessibility support tool. It works online or offline across devices, which suits classroom and lecture-hall environments. Genio is positioned as a mainstream learning tool that also supports accessibility needs. It is actively operating in 2025 and 2026, reporting use by well over a hundred thousand students and more than a thousand institutions, with active sign-in, pricing, and ongoing product development. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

ScreenApp is an AI-powered screen and meeting recorder that captures video and audio and then automatically transcribes and summarizes the content. Beyond meetings, it is used to record screen sessions, webinars, and other content, making it a flexible capture-and-transcribe tool rather than a meeting-only assistant. After recording, ScreenApp produces transcripts, summaries, and notes, and lets users search and share the results, which is useful for documentation, training, and revisiting long sessions. It works in the browser and supports recording across common workflows, with AI features that turn raw recordings into structured, searchable text. ScreenApp appeals to creators, support and training teams, and anyone who needs to record and then quickly extract the key points from video or audio. Because it combines screen recording with transcription and summarization, it sits at the intersection of meeting notetakers and general recording tools, with an emphasis on turning any recording into usable notes. Platforms: Browser / Zoom / Google Meet / Microsoft Teams. Integrations: Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
