About UpSolo

UpSolo is a study tool that turns any video's transcript into a summary, flashcards, a quiz, and a tutor who has watched it too — built for people who'd rather learn from a video once, well, than rewatch it.

A SMALL TEAM, BUILDING IN THE OPEN
01

What UpSolo does

UpSolo is a study tool that turns the transcript of any video into a summary, flashcards, a quiz, and a tutor who has watched it too — so studying a lecture, talk, or tutorial takes minutes, not a rewatch.

—Transcript — clean, punctuated, and timestamped. Click a line to jump back to that second.
—Summary — six ideas instead of forty bullets, each tied to the moment it was said.
—Flashcards — generated from the material, then scheduled with spaced repetition so review lands right before you'd forget.
—Quiz — questions with explanations that point back to the timestamp you missed.
—Ask the tutor — a streaming chat that has watched the video, and cites timestamps in its answers.
—Notes, highlights, mind map, translation, study report, infographic, quote cards, and a shadowing guide for practicing pronunciation.

What makes UpSolo different

—Every claim cites a timestamp — a summary, card, or answer that isn't grounded in the transcript doesn't ship; you can check the source in one click instead of taking the model's word for it.
—It's a toolkit, not a single feature — transcript, summary, flashcards, quiz, chat, notes, mind map, and more all live against the same video, in one workspace.
—Flashcards use real spaced repetition (a compact SM-2 scheduler), not a static deck you review once and forget.
—No card to start — every tool works on a free daily credit allowance, and the transcript tools need no account at all.
—Built for more than YouTube — Vimeo, Dailymotion, and X (Twitter) videos already work, podcasts are next, and a Chrome extension puts the transcript beside the YouTube player.
03

Who uses UpSolo

—Students turning lecture recordings into flashcards and a study guide before an exam.
—Self-learners working through tutorials, talks, and course videos who'd rather rewatch less and retain more.
—Language learners using the shadowing guide and translation to study in the transcript directly.
—Anyone who wants to ask a video a follow-up question instead of scrubbing back through it.

The team behind UpSolo

UpSolo is built by Thien Nguyen, working the way a small, independent product gets built: in the open, shipping features as they're ready rather than on a release calendar.

How UpSolo works

Support runs over email — write in and a real person reads it, usually within one to two business days. There's no ticket portal or tiered support plan to navigate.

—Paste a video link (or a whole playlist) and UpSolo pulls the transcript in seconds — auto-captions included.
—Pick a tool: summary to catch up, flashcards to remember, a quiz to check yourself, or chat to ask a follow-up.
—Everything you make — videos, notes, decks — stays in your library, and cards come back tomorrow when you'd otherwise forget them.

Frequently asked questions

Does UpSolo work on every video? Any public YouTube, Vimeo, or Dailymotion video with captions — auto-generated counts. Podcasts are next, and X (Twitter) posts already work. If there's nothing to transcribe, UpSolo says so straight away instead of guessing.

Do I need an account? Not for the transcript tools — paste a link and copy the text. The study tools (summary, flashcards, quiz, chat) need a free account so your work is saved and your cards can come back tomorrow.

Will the summaries make things up? Every claim links to a timestamp so you can check it in one click. If it isn't in the video, it shouldn't be in your notes.

Can I export my work? Flashcards export to Anki, CSV, or plain text, and reports to PDF, Word, or Markdown. What you make is yours to take with you.
