Turn any lecture into study notes you'll actually remember, then get flashcards, a quiz, a mind map and a podcast from the same note. Snap your class notes, record the lecture, paste a link or type what you have. VisualNote AI writes clear study notes and draws them as a hand-drawn visual page. From that one note you get every tool you need before the exam. HOW IT WORKS โข Add your materials: photos of your notebook or textbook, a voice recording (record live or upload one), a web link, or your own typed notes. Mix them in one note. โข Pick what to make: notes come first, then choose a visual, flashcards, a mind map, a quiz or a podcast. โข Study: flip cards, take the quiz, follow the map, or listen on the way to class. WHAT YOU GET FROM ONE NOTE โข Study notes: clean, structured notes written from your materials. โข Visual notes: a hand-drawn page in the style you like, from Teen Diary to Blueprint, Comic or Swiss Design. โข Flashcards: made for you, flip and test yourself. โข Mind map: see how the ideas connect, in a vertical or radial layout. โข Quiz: five questions at a time. Every miss comes with the right answer and why. โข Podcast: a solo host, two hosts talking it through, a quick-fire drill or a debate, made from your class. โข Chat: ask about your notes, get an explanation, or change the notes and the visual. MADE FOR STUDENTS Built for high school and university: lectures, textbook chapters, revision before tests, and exam prep. Visual notes help you remember more than a wall of text, and active recall with flashcards and quizzes is what makes it stick. FREE AND PRO Start free with a set of visuals, flashcards, mind maps and podcast minutes. VisualNote Pro unlocks more of everything, all styles and no watermark. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage them in your Apple ID settings.

Most study apps start after the hard part. They assume the material is already typed in, already organised, already yours. Quat starts at the lecture. Record it, photograph it, paste a link, or pick a file. Quat reads what you captured and turns it into flashcards that test you on it. CAPTURE, FOUR WAYS Audio โ record a lecture, a seminar, or yourself talking through a topic. Quat transcribes it and pulls out what is worth remembering. Photo โ point your camera at a textbook page, a whiteboard, a handout, or your own handwriting. Quat reads the text off it. Link โ paste a URL. Quat fetches the page, reads it, and summarises what matters. It reads the actual page, so it cannot invent what is not there. File โ choose a PDF, Word, PowerPoint or Excel document. Quat reads it and turns it into a note and cards. EVERY CARD KNOWS WHERE IT CAME FROM Cards carry their origin โ MIC, JUL 28, CARDIO LECTURE. Weeks later, when a card surfaces and you cannot place it, you can go back to the thing it came from. REVIEW THAT ENDS Spaced repetition that schedules each card for the day you are about to forget it. When the day's cards are done, the session ends and tells you so. It does not invent more work to keep you in the app. Each rating button prints what pressing it will do โ now, 1d, 3d, 4d โ before you press it. No guessing what "Good" means. BUILT TO BE READ Every number is set in a monospaced face with tabular figures, so counts and intervals stay legible at a glance. It celebrates what you actually did โ a finished session, a level earned โ never the mere fact that you opened the app, and nothing is locked behind a streak. ALSO INSIDE - A tutor that answers from your own notes, and cites which one - Self-scored exam mode, separate from your review schedule - Matching, speed round, quiz and a study timer - Folders, tags and search - Send a folder to a classmate in one message โ they open it in Quat with one Paste - Card content in 21 languages - Works offline for everything except capture PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. Your notes and cards are stored on your device, not on a server. Nothing leaves your device unless you ask for it: a capture sends what you handed it, a tutor question sends the notes it answers from, and a shared deck is sealed on your device before it goes. No analytics, no tracking, no advertising. Quat is for anyone preparing for something โ a degree, a licence, a recertification, a driving theory test, a language. SUBSCRIPTION Everything on your device โ reviewing, exams, games, notes, cards โ is free without limit. A subscription raises the monthly ceilings on the parts that call a model: capture, the tutor, and card generation. Monthly or Annual, billed through your App Store account; it renews until cancelled, which you can do at any time in your account settings.
