There's no shortage of AI tools that summarise content. Gistr does something different - it's built for understanding. Save a YouTube video, podcast, article, or PDF. Gistr extracts what matters, grounds every insight in the source, and gives you an editable outline to think with - not just read from. Add your own ideas, connect multiple sources, and verify every claim. If you consume a lot and retain very little - Gistr was built for you.

Gistr is a better NotebookLM version for me.

It is more flexible for youtube research by making interactive timeline points to your youtube material.
Selecting youtube script highlights as seperate highlighted material is also very handy too
Adding Notion kind of note blocks to your study material helps a lot to.
You heva to be carefull that with AI chatting only 1 source is selected,
Best is to select max 20 sources for the AI chat on a topic of reseach.

Very nice product (next to NotebookLM)

More flexible then NotebookLM in my case

Gistr looks very simple (on the surface) but after spending even a few mins, you realise how many powerful features it has. Genuinely, you get into a habit of getting insights from longform content and preserving it in one place. The team is very talented, passionate and open to feedback. It shows in how fast the product has evolved. Please give it a try! Congrats on the launch! 🎉

Congrats on the launch! 🎉 I keep hearing nothing but good things about Gistr. A couple of my cousins are med students and they've worked it right into their daily routine, and the PMs I work with are big fans too. Excited to see where you take this.
